Creative ideas to make bland walls come to life
Having bland walls can be very boring and can make your entire home look dull and morose. If you have plain and uninteresting walls in your home or office, there are tons of fun things you can incorporate into your walls to change their overall look. Today we have prepared a list of creative ideas and suggestions that you can use to transform those bland walls. Incorporating these ideas will make your house look unique and outstanding.
Here’s everything you need to know:
Hire an Artist to paint your wall
You need an artist, not a painter and by painting, we mean allowing him to paint a gorgeous work of art on the wall itself. From abstract designs to beautiful and realistic looking paintings of nature scenes, you can get the artist to fill up the walls with vibrancy, life and colour. Choose an artist who is experienced with wall paintings, frescoes and murals because you don’t want to end up getting stuck with an inexperienced artist who will only end up ruining your wall.

Use wall stickers to brighten up the walls
Nowadays you get tons of gorgeous wall stickers that you can use to decorate your walls. These wall stickers are available in wonderful and captivating designs, patterns and colours. You can get these gorgeous and decorative wall panels on several online portals or you can even approach your local décor store to source some out. These stickers are long-lasting and durable and will not spoil or tear. You can place the stickers all over that bland wall to make it stand out.
Choose irresistible and patterned wall panels
What greater way to decorate those bland walls in your home than to opt for fabulous wall panels? There are wall panels that are available in several different styles, patterns, materials and more. From gorgeous and natural looking wooden wall panels to exquisite and mesmerising 3D wall panels, you can find something for every preference. These stylish wall panels hide those bland walls and make your home stand out. You can choose the wall planners depending on the overall décor of your home.
Change the wall paint
Not everyone is looking to do something exceptionally extraordinary and outstanding to their walls. Some people just want to add a little bit of colour and life to the wall. You can choose to change the colour of the wall to a more visually pleasing and vibrant one. A lot of people now opt for bright yellows, olive greens, cerulean blues and other such paints to bring out their dull and boring walls. Find a shade of your choice, and repaint that wall. You can probably also install an intricately designed antique mirror on the wall once the paint has dried.
Use photographs to give life to the wall
Framed black and white photos can really add a story to any wall. Whether you go out and buy framed photos from a professional photographer, or you opt for the photos that you have taken yourself in your free time, installing photos is a great way to make a wall stand out. If you want to add a little bit of colour to your wall, you can go in for coloured photographs instead.

Convert the wall into a graffiti space
A great, fun and unique way to transform that wall into something different is by converting it into a graffiti space. You can invite a bunch of your closest friends and loved ones over and ask them to draw or write whatever they feel like with permanent markers, spray paint cans and regular paints. This way the wall will become a memorable and outstanding area of your home.
Hang some decorative ornaments against the wall
If your home is by the seaside and it has a bohemian theme, hanging some handmade decorative ornaments can help transform your wall from bland to beautiful. You can opt for large dream catchers, macramé wall hangings and other such items. If you want your wall hanging to have specific colours and shades, you can approach your local handmade artisan and request him to make these items in the colours that match your home décor and the colours that you like.
Use wall hangings to liven up the walls
You can opt for carpet style wall hangings to give your walls a transformation. Wall hangings look best in striped prints, Aztec prints, circular or geometric prints and so on. You can get these at your local décor store or even online. If you’re looking for a wall hanging that’s a little more unique and different, visit your local flea market to find the perfect one to suit your taste. A very happening trend amongst young people across the globe is installing UV wall hangings on their walls and letting a UV light shine down on the hanging. This makes the wall hanging look utterly fabulous and exceptional. You can opt for a psychedelic style wall hanging, or a Buddha UV wall hanging and lots more.

The next time you find yourself staring upon your bland wall and wondering how you can affordably transform those boring walls into something outstanding, just follow these simple and easy suggestions and leave your family members and visitors awestruck. These tried and tested ideas are truly transformational and can make even the dullest wall look like it’s something that’s been taken out from an architectural digest.
Changing that boring wall into something outstanding has never been easier and less expensive.

![[AD] The sun has finally made an appearance and the boys have been making the most of it by spending it
in the garden.
They’re go-to is always football and they’ve been trying to improve their aim and accuracy with the new Messi Foldable Footlball goal from the #MessiTrainingSystem range.
I love the fact the goal is foldable, making it easy to store away when not in use. It is also lightweight so you can effortlessly pack it up and take it to the park or to a friend’s house.
The Messi Foldable Football Goal retails at £36 and can be purchased from @argos

![[AD] What does family look like for you?
I am fortunate to be surrounded by strong, powerful women in the form of my mum, sister and mother-in-law (along with many others). With Mother’s Day just around the corner, @BootsUK want to celebrate all the different mums and mother figures we are lucky enough to have in our lives. They have a huge range of Mother’s Day gifts to choose from so we can show them how much they mean to us. (swipe to take a look at some of my choices)
If you want to express love and appreciation for the mother figure(s) in your life, head to Boots.com to find the ideal gift. They have a whole host of gifts, so you can be sure to find something to suit all tastes. Celebrate the #LoveForAllMums this Mother’s Day with Boots.
