A Painted Tarp
When it comes to high-end DIYs for your walls, you’ll find an old canvas is a smart solution. If you have one lying around, don’t toss it out, instead turn it into a work of art. You can use virtually any substance on it – paint, charcoal, pastels, etc. Draw a picture or have your kids draw something. This is a great way to repurpose an old tarp you have, or you can purchase one second-hand if needed.
A Porcelain Gallery
Do you have an extensive China collection? If so, why not take it out of the cupboard or cabinet, and display it on the wall? This is an unexpected twist to the more classic gallery wall look, as well. Be sure to map out your gallery using paper before you start putting holes in the wall, as this is going to minimize problems.
A Fabric Wall Hanging
Do you have a vintage area rug or an antique quilt? Is it sitting in a closet or behind a couch somewhere? If you haven’t been using it, then why not repurpose it by hanging it up on your wall? It’s a great way to add some color and interest to any room in your house.
Children’s Artwork
Your kids have likely created more than a few amazing pieces of art, now is the time to show them off. Not only does this give you a great way to add color and fun to your room, you can also help your child feel like an amazing artist – just look at how proud they seem when you hang up their artwork. You can even have it professionally framed to add a bit more elegance, if desired.

Put a Unique Spin on the Typical Portraits
Do you like the idea of displaying your family on your walls? Is this an appealing option, but you want to go traditional, consider portraits from Instapainting. These portrait paintings provide you with the perfect solution to show off your family, with a more interesting spin.
Clipped Art
Do you like the minimalist look? If so, this is a great option. Just put up a photograph that you love, without a frame. This is a minimalist look that will definitely add some fun and interest to your room.
A Beaded Wall Hanging
You can create your own unique wall hanging and all you need is a branch and some beads. This will create a type of bohemian vibe. Consider an asymmetrical look and design as this offers a more whimsical look and will take up much less real estate on your wall than a woven hanging.
Use Found Objects
Virtually anything can be used as wall décor – even a skateboard – if you style it properly. Use found objects as wall art in your home. With a bit of imagination and creativity, the options are unlimited.
If you want to enhance your home and dress up your walls, then the tips here will help you get started. You’ll find all the ideas here as viable options and can feel confident that everyone will love the look you have created.
