5 Great Home Decor Tips with Removable Wallpaper and Wall Murals
There's nothing better than coming home after a long day to a stress-free space. You can change up everything from furniture to layout, but the wall itself is one of the easiest and most affordable places to start. Here are 5 wall mural tips to help create a calmer, more put-together room.
Quick answer
A calm, put-together room comes down to five things: cool, earthy colours, natural textures like wood, lighter overall tones, a scene suited to the room's purpose, and, if you want something personal, a custom photo collage.
1. Color
Home design experts suggest leaning on earthy, cool tones like green and blue to help a room feel calm and grounded. A soft green landscape mural, like the Green River Ravine Wall Mural, brings that colour psychology into your space without needing to repaint a single wall.
2. Texture
Rustic or wood textures create an instantly relaxing feel, according to many interior decorators. A faux wood panel mural gives you that "at the cottage, don't bother me" feeling without any actual renovation. Try the Old Wooden Planks Wall Mural for a cozy, cabin-inspired accent wall.
3. Tones
Lighter tones tend to create a less busy, less stressful-looking wall, and they're easier to feature alongside other decor pieces you already own. A softer, muted mural like the West Tatras Mountains Wall Mural gives you scale and detail without feeling heavy in the room.
4. Scenery
The image you choose matters as much as the colour or texture. If you're hoping to turn your bathroom into a spot to unwind, a waterfall scene like the Rain Forest Waterfall Wall Mural does the trick.

5. Collage
One more idea worth considering: put the people who matter most on your wall. A custom photo collage mural can be just as calming as a landscape, since it's filled with faces and memories you love. Contact us to talk through building a custom collage mural for your space.
