Does your space feel bland or stark? These textured wall art ideas are sure to create a more interesting space bursting with personality.
Texture is a timeless look, so you can’t go wrong with adding it to any space. Well, expect for popcorn ceilings that is not timeless, so don’t add this type of texture to your room.
How to Add Texture
If you struggle with committing to a color scheme then adding texture is your best option. You can layer various textures to make an all neutral space feel interesting or easily mix in bold colors for a dramatic look.
To add texture to a space you should first determine the color scheme and style for the room that you are decorating. Texture can come through in your design in various ways. You’d be surprised where you can bring texture into your home.
Textured Wall Art Ideas
If you are going for an all neutral theme, consider using various shades of neutrals then scatter greenery throughout to give your room a cozy feel. Using the same color throughout can lead to room look stark, so make sure to break up the color or choose a warmer neutral.
A warmer neutral paint color will have a slight yellow or green undertone that will bring warmth to your room. While a cool neutral paint color will have a slight blue or purple undertone that can make a room feel cold.
Your goal when decorating should be to create a space that you don’t want to leave. These textured wall art ideas can help add layers and warmth to a room without making the room feel disorganized and busy. Bringing texture into a room can also help you use color in a different or more interesting way.
Picture Molding Accent Wall
Adding a picture molding accent wall can bring in a ton of texture and serves as wall décor for any large room. The wall can be painted a bold color to really pop or a neutral color for a subtle calming feel.
An accent wall can easily be added texture to a living room in a weekend. This is one of my favorite textured wall art ideas because picture molding is a great way to fill up a large wall that doesn’t have many windows.
Woven Wall Art
This room is bursting with textured wall art ideas. From the woven wall decor, basket light fixture, jute rug, and the slat accent wall behind the tv.
Baskets bring a lot of texture and warmth to a room with a natural color that matches existing home decor. Another way to add texture is by using dried pampas grass decor. Pampas are a fun way to add personality to a space and decorate with neutral tones.
Decorating with Wallpaper
Textured wallpaper or even wallpaper with a pattern that appears to have texture is an easy way to change the feel of a room. The wallpaper doesn’t have to take over the entire room, even just a small section will pop. If you have a boring bookcase then you should try adding wallpaper in the back, so when you look into the bookcase you see the wallpaper.
Layered Wall Art
Layering frames and creating a gallery wall is a fun way to show your personality while adding texture to your space. Get creative and add your own personal photography, vintage photos, and even pop art for a touch of color.
Conclusion
Textures not only bring meaning and layers to a room, but they just make it easier to decorate. I used to struggle to make sense of home decor until I realized what a difference texturing can do for a room.
