These include adding wall paneling or paint, installing a mirror, and painting a storage cabinet. Using your creativity, you can also tackle a DIY project.

The best part is that wall paneling is extremely easy to install and requires only basic DIY skills. There are a few things you need to know before you get started.

Measurement is essential to avoid errors and ensure a neat finish. Once you know the width and height of your walls, you can start cutting the panels to fit. You can either do it yourself or hire a professional to do this. If you are a DIY-er, you can save money by getting the panels cut for you. Select panels in bright colors to lift the mood of those in the room. Choose accent colors or unique color effects to enhance your paneling. If you have surplus doors, you might consider installing hidden doors. Then, you will have a more open look. The panels will be much easier to install and will create a more open space.

Mirrors are an excellent way to add character to a room without spending a lot of money. You can buy them in a wide range of designs and frames to match the rest of your decor. Adding more than one mirror to your room is an excellent way to create a gallery wall, although you should frame them in the same style to maintain symmetry. Mirrors also allow you to play around with unique materials, and cane is a great choice for this. Mirrors are also a great way to add extra light to a room. If your living room has windows, a mirror in front of these windows will reflect the light of the outside world and add a lot of brightness to the space. You can use a cluster of mirrors to decorate your mirror, and you can put books on either side of it. You can also place a tall lamp in front of a mirror to reflect more light into it. Mirrors have numerous functions, from enhancing the beauty of your walls to adding character. They can reflect light, create spatial illusions, and be functional. For example, a mirror placed opposite a window can make a room seem larger, making it seem more spacious. Larger mirrors can elongate narrow living rooms and give them an airier feel. You can even make a mirror a wall sculpture by hanging it on one wall. Adding an accent wall Whether you want to create a dramatic feature in your living room or just want to give it a more casual feel, adding an accent wall is an excellent way to bring the outside in. The accent wall will draw attention to your focal point and will also serve as storage space. Build-in bookshelves will display artwork and collectibles while also creating a functional accent wall. You can use wood plank porcelain tiles to create an accent wall and can use them in a pattern or with brushed nickel metal Schluter trim. Either way, they are easy to clean and are fire resistant. Another great accent wall option is grass paper. This material comes in a variety of colors, so you can find one to match the style of your furniture. Grass paper adds eclectic glamor to a living room, but it is a little more complicated to install. If you have the patience, you can hang it horizontally and use it as a backdrop for other artwork, objects, or pictures. While you may be worried that adding an accent wall will take away from the rest of the room's design, the fact is that this type of wall is one of the easiest ways to bring a unique and memorable element to your living room. With the right paint color and a simple DIY project, you'll be able to create a feature wall that makes a statement in your living room.
