Many a time a full makeover may not be possible. Many of us do not have the time to attempt a makeover for the entire house. But small touches here and there can bring a fresh look to the home easily. Rearranging the furniture in a different way, changing the accessories like cushions, rugs and window treatments are some ideas for makeover. For a quick wall makeover, you can think of applying wallpaper. You do not have to wallpaper the entire room. Applying wallpaper to just one wall may do the trick and make the room more vibrant and colourful. Actually you can make that wall the focus of the room décor with sufficient light to bring an entirely different look.
If you go online and check the options available with wallpapers, wall stickers, wall decals and other wall posters, you will be stumped by so much variety in colours, designs, textures and patterns. Even totally sustainable wallpapers are available so that you can have your green ethics satisfied by using those wallpapers. Many times, the pastel coloured walls start looking boring and faded out. This is when you can bring a dramatic change with contrast looking wallpapers on just one wall. A black-based wallpaper – whether floral patterned or abstract geometric patterns etc – may go very nicely in a room with rest of walls in pale cream, yellow or pale beige colours.
You can alternatively apply a stunning wall-decal on one wall and opposite wall can be wallpapered to contrast nicely with the adjacent pastel shades. This way, two walls look more vibrant than the rest and the room gets an entirely different look. If you are not keen on contrast shades, check out matching coloured self-patterns which look sober and elegant. If you are going to place the furniture against the wallpaper, just check that furniture finish, upholstery colors do not clash with wallpaper colour/design. White, cream and pale shades of beige, yellow, and gold look best against black/dark-brown based wallpapers. Dark wood furniture looks best against any colour other than black or dark brown etc.
