Home is where the heart is all the time. While there are innumerable ways to interpret that line, one thing’s for certain: you want your home to have the best. One way to add a gorgeous design element in your rooms is to use hand-printed wallpapers. Here are some excellent examples from Houzz on how hand-printed wallpapers can add that much needed touch of elegance and class to your home.
1. Bring new life to your dining room. Have a stodgy, traditional dining room? No need to spend a fortune updating your furniture or tossing your chairs and tables for a new set. Instead, pair your furniture with a hand-printed wallpaper that provides a good contrast to your existing design or one that complements it marvelously well.
2. Brighten up your stairs. Have a curling staircase? Think it’s one of the most boring spaces in your house? No more, then. Put in a wallpaper and watch the place lighten up. Bright colours tend to make the space more cheery and spacious, despite how cramped a side staircase often is. It’s a good way to balance out your space.
3. Play with colours and patterns. Explore as many wallpaper pattern and colour combinations as you can. If you’ve ever eyed art you’ve always wanted but couldn’t put up on your walls, then try covering a whole panel of your bedroom closet instead. Whether you want delicate designs that mimic eighteenth-century Chinese silk paneled screens or something that resembles Hieronymus Bosch’s enchanting Garden of Earthly Delights, all you have to do is find the right wallpaper to match.
4. Use it as a wall accent. For rooms that tend to be a bit spare in décor and furniture, adding in just the right wallpaper can bring take your living room from ho-hum to whoa. If you’ve just moved into a new home, this is also one of the first things you can do to make yourself at home. That and it gives you a settled feeling, that sense of having accomplished something, even if it’s as mundane as putting up your own wallpaper. After all, it’s one step closer to making that space your own.
So if you think your rooms can use a bit more colour, a bit more light and life, then ditch the paint. Go for hand-printed wallpapers instead. With online shops like the Honolulu Wall Covering Boutique in Honolulu, buying your wallpapers is simple and easy.
