Gone are the days when the only decent options for wall hangings were paintings, portraits and photographs. Today, there is a much larger variety of wall hanging ideas.
You can use an interesting rug or a quilt and hook it up to your wall to create a warm and comforting wall hanging. There are many interesting designs available in bookshelves that can be attached to the wall of your room. Use a canvas to write out a word or a message you believe in and put it up on the wall. Create abstract art yourself using different colors, patterns and designs and use it as wall hangings.

Framed Art is an excellent choice for home décor. If you choose your framed art carefully, you can use it to reflect your own personality or the mood you want the room to convey. Framed art is visually very impactful and can help you create the right backdrop for the purpose of the room.
Most people consider framed art to be very expensive. But, that is not true. You can get extremely inexpensive framed art in a variety of materials, textures, colors, patterns and designs. In fact, you can even make your own framed art and use it to decorate your walls.

Colors can add a lot of vibrancy to a room. Interesting use of colors in a room can not only make the room very attractive, but they also help add a lot of energy to a room.
If you are artistic, you might want to use different colors on your one of your walls to create an eye-catching and attractive design. If you do not trust your artistic instincts or you live in a rented apartment, you can experiment with creating spray painted designs or hand and thumb prints to create an explosion of colors on your walls.

Photographs are often amongst the most cherished possessions we have. They are both a record and a memory from our past. They are an important part of our lives and nothing can reflect our personalities as effectively as our collection of photographs. That is why photographs are a great décor option for your home.
Consider using up an entire wall of your living room to create a picture gallery. Ensure that all the photographs have the same frames to create a theme and to avoid distractions. Use different sizes of photographs and place them beside each other, creating something of a collage of photographs on the wall.

Most people are more concerned about the furniture and upholstery in the houses than wall décor. Wall décor is usually restricted to hanging clocks, photographs or pictures and paintings.
But, here is what you may want to consider- walls are an open space for you to let your creativity flow and create amazing visual references in your room.
You can experiment with creating different pockets of attraction at different heights on your walls. This will create an expansive effect and make the room look larger. You can offset the drab solo color of the wall by strategically introducing colors through wall décor.
