Are You Giving the Walls in Your House a New Look?

Perhaps you visited a house and garden trade show and you were inspired by some of the wall coverings you saw. Or it might be that you have been looking at decorating magazines and they have been your inspiration to give the walls in your house a brand new look. If you already know just what you want to do to the walls throughout your entire house, then you don't need to continue reading. Otherwise, read on for some ideas that might help you to give each room a new look.

Professional Wall Covering Installation

Have you ever wallpapered a wall yourself? If so, you already know that it's a pretty big job. Maybe you have never done a project like that in the past. If that's the case, just know that it is such a big deal that the money you spend on having it done professionally will be some of the best money you'll ever spend on decorating your home. 

The business you use will have so many books with wall paper samples in them that your biggest challenge might be selecting the wallpaper you want. Even though you might have to pay a small deposit, consider asking if you can take the sample books home with you. That way you won't feel rushed as you make your decision. 

As you go through each page of the books, consider the mood you want to set in each room, and match the wall covering to that mood. For example:

  • Maybe you want a rustic feeling in your family room. Wall paper that looks like old wooden boards or old bricks would be perfect for a rustic look. 
  • If you want an elegant look in your living room and dining room, think about selecting a very formal wall paper. Metallic gold or silver as part of the design would certainly add elegance to the rooms.
  • Are you establishing themes in each of the bathrooms? You could choose a wall covering that has animals on it for a jungle theme. Choose a wall paper that has things like sailboats or lighthouses as the main design for a beach theme.

Perhaps you want to combine wall paint with wall covering. For instance, maybe you have chosen a garden theme for your kitchen. If that's the case, think about choosing butter yellow for the paint and then adding a wall paper border that has flowers as the focal point of the design. 

No matter what look you want to achieve, a wall covering company, such as Wallpaper New York, can help you with your project.

Paint Your Home the Colors of Spring

When spring arrives, I always enjoy unpacking my spring wardrobe. My closet is filled with pastel colored pieces of clothing. I simply love the bright colors of spring. A couple of years ago, I decided to paint the inside of my home. For my kitchen, I chose a pale yellow color. I painted my guest bathroom a light blue hue. I picked a soothing green shade for my master bathroom. Now, I can enjoy looking at the beautiful colors of spring all year long in the comfort of my home. If you’re thinking about painting the inside of your home, consider choosing pastel colors. On this blog, you will discover how to incorporate spring colors into an upcoming painting project.
