Wall Paintings / Pictures






Wall painting is a very innovative way to make your house look gorgeous. Wall papers have become backdated, wall painting is the new in-thing. It is cheap and also easy to change as compared to wall papers. We shall discuss some wall painting ideas that will light up your room. 

Family photos hung on walls can be boring or they can tell an interesting story if they’re surrounded by personalized lettering transfers. And family photos aren’t the only images that can benefit from unique lettering art. For a distinctive look, surround the frame of a breathtaking image with inspiring lettering that complements a room’s décor. Or create descriptive transfer lettering labels and position them below a grouping of pictures, similar to the way museums display their works of art.

There are many ways to enhance a photo grouping with decorative lettering. Why just display framed pictures of your child’s first steps when you can highlight the pictures of this memorable event by adding words and quotes on the wall or even famous inspirational messages by well-known individuals? Your creativity will be the envy of the other mothers on the block. Some might even pay you to create the same effect on their walls! But only you can decide whether or not you tell them about letter transfers and how easy they are to apply to any photo wall or grouping, or anywhere for that matter.

When it comes to interior wall painting ideas for a home game room you should get a little creative, especially if you have a dedicated theme to the room. And it doesn't need to be difficult to look great, it can be done easily and look amazing at the same time. All you need to do is be creative, think outside the box and set aside some free time to get the job done.

Hanging Art Pieces together Working horizontally, as on a sofa wall or a hall entrance, prints grouped in odd numbers are visually balanced, giving volume without crowding. 

Even Numbers Art Arranging Large spaces – Tightly group an even number of pictures to balance a large space, such as a high wall in a room with vaulted ceilings. 

Small spaces – Tightly group an even number of pictures in a small space, such as a galley kitchen or a tight stair landing, to give a window effect. Enhance the effect by using light colors and slender frames. 

In both cases, the trick to evenly numbered collections is tight grouping so that pieces appear as one statement rather than a series of small comments.
   
If you have a selection of pictures that are similar in subject matter, size and framing, consider a symmetrical grouping to create a mirror-image balance. 

Symmetrical collections are often used to create the popular gallery effects, above large pieces of furniture, such as sofas and above mantles. 
 
If you have a selection of dissimilar pictures with at least one common element, such as subject matter, use an asymmetrical grouping for a more organic balance. 

When hanging two larger pictures together, try lowering one and raising the other, so the top and bottom don’t match. 

Group larger and smaller pieces, to create interest and energy. For example, hang a large focal piece, such as a garden scene, with two smaller pieces, such as gardening tools or seed packets. 

Combine horizontal and vertical pieces in the same grouping. Hang a tall architectural print with two panoramic skyline photos. 

The next wall painting idea is that you need to picture what color of wall you want in your house. If you for instance want a house that has a dramatic side to it, opt for contrasting colors. It is very important to remember the rules of paint when you decide to try out wall painting.
