Furniture and home accents aren’t the only things that affect the appearance of your room. The way you decorate your walls can have a big impact on the rest of the space. Walls are a great place to focus your decorative energy, especially during the holidays when adding festive touches can make a room feel warm and inviting. Whatever your design vision is, Ace can help you bring it to life with a wide range of wall décor products sold online and in stores.
Textured Walls with Planks and Shiplap
Wall planks and wood shiplaps both add textural appeal to spaces and can cover flaws in drywall. They are a great way to reinvent a room. There are some differences between these two wall décor options.
Wood Shiplap
Wood shiplap has a groove at the bottom that fits the board below, overlapping to prevent gaps. It’s beginner-friendly and works well in rooms with temperature or moisture changes, as the overlap accommodates shrinking and swelling.
Tongue and Groove
Tongue and groove planks have a u-shaped channel on one side and a protrusion on the other, fitting snugly together. Durable and ideal for high-traffic areas, they are slightly more complex to install than shiplap.
What’s more, you can find wall planks with adhesive backings that are easy to fit and offer great versatility for home décor. The ease of use with peel-and-stick wall planks lets you do up an entire wall or select areas for a unique look.
Elevate Your Space with Trim Boards
You don’t have to cover your entire wall with planks or wood shiplap to spice up your décor. Strategically placed wood trim boards can also add character to spaces. Install classic crown molding where the ceiling meets the wall to elevate your room, or put in new baseboard trim to polish off an area. If you want to experiment with color-blocking paint or mixing wall décor like paneling and paint, a chair rail can visually divide the wall to accentuate the differences between colors or textures.
Quick Wall Updates for Style and the Holidays
Hang wall signs to give your interior more personality. Some wall signs include hooks for hanging keys and other decorative accents in your room. Even swapping out your current curtain rod for a new one to complement your new wall plank décor can have a dramatic impact on a space.
If you want to quickly make your walls pop, try wall décor that’s easy to install. Adorning your space with a hanging wine rack can add a touch of rustic charm, while wall mirrors can bring shine to spaces and make smaller rooms feel more open and spacious. At night, light candles on surfaces near mirrors to set a relaxing, cozy holiday mood. Explore indoor Christmas and Halloween décor for appropriate festive touches around the holiday season.
