It’s time to get serious about sprucing up that hall of yours. Hallways, am I right? It’s like the middle kid of living spaces, full of possibilities but often neglected. The question is, how can this overlooked space become the focal point of the event? Buckle up; we’re going on a decor adventure. You can get the best hall decorating ideas on our place.
Mirrors. Okay, okay, we know that you’ve already heard about this. I’m not kidding – adding a giant, oversized mirror to the end a long hallway works miracles. Like magic, the hallway seems twice as big and allows you to take one more look before heading out. Win-win.
Next, let’s discuss walls. It’s not a good idea to have blank walls. Turn them into an art gallery. Get out some of those cool old art prints or family photos. Choose frames in different sizes and styles – large, smaller, more or less fancy, simpler. The hallways will make you feel like a stroll down the memory lane.
Lighting does not have to boring. Instead of boring overhead light fixtures, opt for something interesting. Are wall sconces a good idea? Lights for fairy gardens? Make it your own. Your lighting should not scream “dental clinic.”
What if you gave your wall a soft sweater? It’s not a literal sweater, but texture will add to the cozy feeling. Think of velvet wallpaper and fabric hangings. You can add depth by using fabric hangings or velvet wallpaper.
Remember the floors! If you want to spice up the hallway, add some color with a unique runner. How about mismatched mosaic tiles to give your hallway a more eclectic feeling?
You can have a lot of fun with this: you don’t need to put anything in the hall that is expected. You can add floating shelves to display cute plants and other quirky items. I’ll take it! Then again, why not add a chandelier to the room?
Here’s my last tip: interactive décor! Imagine that you have a large chalkboard where visitors can write notes and draw pictures. You can use it like Facebook only in real life.
What you’ve just seen is that it doesn’t take rocket science to turn your “meh hallway” into a “wow”. It only takes creativity and an openness to trying new ideas. Keep in mind that hallways offer more than just the path to your rooms. Instead, they are a great place to share who you truly are.
Have fun decorating! Happy decorating.Hold shelves at eye height – they also help clean the atmosphere!
The trick to making a boring hall look amazing is mixing up practical magic and personal flair. Don’t forget that you can use every square inch to your advantage. Be creative (within limits), enjoy yourself, and walk down the hall in comfortable slippers. Grab those doorknobs to show them some love.
