You finished painting your walls, and now you have a clean canvas waiting for decoration. From paintings, to nicely framed photos, to your favorite decor pieces - your options are plentiful. But one of the easiest and most fun ways to decorate your freshly painted wall is with decals.
It's so easy because you can actually create complex, high-impact designs that are removable and reusable, all in a very short time. A good quality wall decal is more than just a sticker - it can be easily removed from the wall without ripping the paint off or leaving any damage. Don't like it on the wall by your sofa? Move it by the shelf in the corner. Think that flower looks good in the bedroom but you also need a color accent for the living room? Remove and reuse!
Wall decals are also excellent decorating ideas when you are renting a place that you are not allowed to modify, and also the next best thing after wall paper - if you're into that! A decal is a versatile decor accessory that can be tailored to suit any area, whether your wall is drywall, tiles, wooden or plastic panels..
Even better? There is a wide variety of decals that you can choose from to complement your paint color, room layout and the interior design theme. They come in different shapes, sizes and themes, and, if you can afford to spend more, they can even be customized to your own design. Choose from graphic decals, calligraphy, quotes, nature, animals, hobby themes like sports and music, landscapes, and nursery themes. Your options are many and varied!
To apply, simply peel the decal off the sheet that it's attached to and position where needed. Apply pressure from top to bottom, flattening the decal on the wall. If you plan a more complex composition, use a pencil to mark the important spots where the decals should go. Measure the work area before to make sure the design fits properly. Use scissors to cut any parts of the decal you don't want - just make sure you don't compromise the design!
