First of all, while buying the tapestry for your wall, keep in mind the colors of your living room and choose the one that blends with the colors of your living room. Now before placing the tapestry check it by sticking it on the wall with some temporary materials like tape or glue.
By doing this you’ll get the idea of placing the tapestry in the right position of your large wall.
Usually, people go for the center position, but that’s not the right way. The decor not only depends on the large wall rather the other stuff in the room matters a lot. So we’d suggest putting the tapestry in a position that looks comfortable to your eyes.
Now, instead of using direct nails on your walls. You adjust your tapestry on a separate wooden board. In this way, you’ll get a clean look and it will give the vibes of a luxurious painting rather than an ordinary tapestry.
If your room has vibrant colors then go for some bohemian style tapestry. You can buy a good tapestry for $20. Moreover, if your room has some white and gray colors then choosing a tapestry of natural scenery would be the best choice.The wooden board for hanging the decor will cost around $15-$20.
This is also one of the exciting and creative decor ideas for a living room wall. If you’re passionate about painting or you have the talent to show your expressions through abstract, then the large blank wall isn’t less than a blessing for you. Hence paint your thoughts directly on the wall. Even if you’re a beginner you can still do it.
Use acrylic and latex paint as they’re easy to clean and dry. If you’re looking for an inexpensive option then emulsion paints are also a good choice, they’re similar to latex paint. They’re low odour and considered best for living rooms and bedrooms.
