How Decorating Your Walls With Stickers, Murals And Wallpaper Can Change Your Home

Your home is your sanctuary.  Many of us work from home, and we also relax at home.  Sometimes though, staring at the same four walls can drive us a little bit crazy.  If you want to brighten up your home or change the style then there are many things you can do in this modern age. As well as paint, there are cool wall stickers, fun tile stickers, bright and cheery murals and chic wallpaper. Let's have a look at some of these and how you can decorate your walls in style. 

Wall Stickers



Wall stickers can be a great way to brighten up your home. The main benefit of wall stickers is that they can be a temporary solution. This is great if you are living in rented accommodation or are prone to change your mind.

Wall stickers are also reasonably priced, so if your budget is small its a very cost-effective solution. They also come in a huge variety of designs to suit everyone.

Wall stickers can be applied by anyone. You don't have to be an expert to apply wall stickers, just read the instructions carefully and away you go. 

Wall stickers are generally free of mess and you don't have to have any special equipment to apply them. No cleaning up and no fuss. They can be stuck to virtually any surface too.

The last benefit of wall stickers is that, if you want to take them off the wall, they leave no marks. 

Tile Stickers


Tile stickers are a solution to change your tiles when you don't want to or can't replace the tiles in question. Again this is a great solution to change the tile design if you are renting accommodation.

Reasonably priced, tile stickers are also a cost-effective solution to design. You don't have to be an expert to apply either. Tile stickers are available in a variety of designs but generally not as many as wall stickers.

Again you don't have to be an expert to apply tile stickers, so you can save money by not employing a decorator. 

Tile stickers are not difficult or messy to apply and need no special equipment. Of course, if they are easy to apply then they are easy to remove too, so a great way of changing the design fuss-free.

Wall Murals



Wall murals are excellent if you want to make a bold statement and totally change a wall.  The sheer size makes a wall mural a way of getting attention and it can hide imperfect walls.

Wall murals are more expensive than stickers but generally cheaper than wallpaper, although this does vary on the design. 

Wall murals come in a number of designs and you can even get your own design custom made. 

Due to the size of the wall mural, it's advisable to have someone else to help you apply it, to the wall. Read the instructions and have a look on YouTube for help in how to apply a wall mural.

Some wall murals are removable so this is a good solution if you change your mind frequently, or like to change designs with the season or current trend. You could even change the wall mural based on the photos of your travels every year. 

Wallpaper



Wallpaper is a traditional way of decorating your home and is favoured by many people. 

The main benefit of wallpaper is that it can hide uneven and imperfect walls, so you don't have to have them skimmed over to make it smooth for painting.

Wallpaper also comes in a huge selection of designs, from bright colourful flowers, animal designs and geometric prints to classic lines and textured paper.  

Wallpaper can last a long time, comes in a range of prices and is affordable to most people. They do however need some knowledge to apply, so you may have to pay a decorator if you are not sure how to do it yourself. Wallpaper isn't suitable for humid rooms like wallpaper and bathrooms as it can peel away. Wallpaper can be more difficult to remove than stickers or murals, but you can remove it yourself with a little knowledge.

Using wallpaper in your home can make a huge difference to a room and can be a big style statement.

So these are some ways to change the look of your walls and bring your home bang up-to-date. Let me know, do you use stickers and murals in your home, or are you a fan of wallpaper?
