Blank Space No More: 4 Ways To Spruce Up Your Blank Wall

Tired of staring at a blank wall at home? Give your home some character by decorating your wall! Working with such a huge canvas may seem daunting and time-consuming, but don't let this hold you back from letting out your inner interior designer. Take this as an opportunity to unleash your creativity or gather your family and turn it into a fun bonding activity. Be it your living room, bedroom, kitchen or even your toilet, here are some simple ways to work that wall! 

1. Perking It Up with a Print Wall

If you've been to our store at Westgate, you would have seen our lovely collage of prints (as seen above), designed by various artists, in all shapes and sizes. Below are some prints you can use to replicate this look in your home as well.  

Essence of Blurcock Poster by Sibei Authentic

Syrup 01 Art Print by Jahan Loh

Sibei Authentic provides a tongue-in-cheek interpretation of what it means to be 'blur' by ironically combining it with chicken essence, a favourite beverage of students right before their examinations to help them study better. For a more Andy Warhol pop art kind of look, check out the Syrup 01 Art Print. Instead of canned Campbell's soup, Jahan Loh uses something more familiar to our local supermarkets. With bold lines and bright colours, these modern prints will add a splash of style to your wall.

3. Get Personal with Postcards

If you're looking to decorate a smaller space, prints and wall decals may be a bit much and exaggerated. Why not use some pretty postcards? To give the setup a more personalised touch, use some of your own photos or small memorabilia such as movie tickets to finish it up.
