25 foot wall , how do I decorate?
My living room is outdated, but the biggest struggle I have always had is what to do with this massive wall. My temporary fix years ago was this collage/ picture "tree". Yes, I need help. Lol. Ideas? I live out west and all of the homes here seem to have this texture on the walls that makes wallpaper hard to stick to. Seems like all artwork is too small.

How do I redecorate this living room?
Comments (14)Love the armless sofa-bench! Try using it in the center as a "cross-linking" piece between the sofa and chairs. That way people can sit on both sides of it, conversing with the sofa people and the chair people. Put the chairs where it is and use the side table from the left of the pic, or the one with flowers, between them. You'll need one huge rug to anchor the space or two smaller, and very similar ones, to put on either side of the blue sofa-bench. The other two side tables are too tall and too short for your seating pieces, so ditch them. Use your coffee table between the sofa and armless sofa (18" away from each of them.) Here's a chart for judging table and lamp heights as you'll need to work on that for balance. Please try this arrangement, and post by commenting and using the Attach Images button to add pix of the update. We'll tweak it on out from there....See MoreNeed ideas to decorate a wall in kitchen
Comments (9)Seems weird not to incorporate it into the design -- I'm all about having things "look intentional" rather than working around them later. Like could the island have connected to this, rather than extending past it? or been L-shaped, so there's room for an extra stool, and also a wall cabinet? Anyway, hard to discuss that in the abstract without kitchen plans. I'm with miacometlady's original advice to not worry about it right now, and decide how to deal with it once the bulk of your kitchen is in place. You might find that you hardly notice it, with all the beautiful new finishes, or it might seem obvious to put some stainless or glass shelves there, or maybe simple is best and one simple hanging picture does the job. Don't stress about it until After. :)...See Morehow to decorate my walls
Comments (2)I decorate my walls with pieces of art (prints, paintings) that I like and I think are pretty. For me that includes botanical art (flowers), vintage china, some lovely landscapes painted by a relative, prints I've picked up here and there, a few pictures / items that reflect my faith, pictures of my kids and so on. Your pictures / artwork should reflect you. If the art has color in it, that would be great to add some to your room....See MoreI have a kitchen window that faces a wall. How can I get a better view
Comments (7)You would need a base steel grid in case of a climber. Plants that require least watering would be bougainvillea, blue morning glory, star jasmine, bleeding heart. If you are not keen on a live wall perhaps you can install artificial grass/turf on the wall and complete with some wall masks....See More

3 months agolast modified: 3 months agoI think art can be vertical or horizontal, and definitely at human level.
You're only giving us one view of this room, but another option is to use slightly smaller art with a console table underneath, to get that piece of couch off the wall a bit -- the furniture seems ok for TV but hard to have a conversation in. That would allow for a small table lamp or a vase or something you like, to accompany a smaller piece of art.

last monthOne large piece of artwork or a few small pieces might be able to work really well in this area. Maybe look at some artwork, with the colors that are in your living room area, and then decide on what you might like there. Here are just a few visuals from various designs of ours that might help you more.

15 days agoIt might be a good idea to remove the tree and use on piece of framed artwork instead. Maybe try looking at some local artists in your area and see if you find anything that you like. Art ideas, from designs of ours, are included here for inspiration.

15 days agoAdding a large piece of art can truly anchor a room, serving as the focal point that ties everything together. A substantial artwork not only injects a sense of sophistication but also infuses the space with vibrant colors and vitality. It acts as a defining element of style, elevating the overall ambiance of the room.
