Wallpaper Borders Decorating Tips
While it is no question that wallpaper border is in itself an epitome of artistry, design and style, its beauty is not limited in it alone. In fact, there are many ways to further enhance your interior but to put it simply; you should have the knowledge of some wallpaper decorating tips. Be inventive and creative, and examine which one below best suits your taste.
Framing – If you have a mirror at home, preferably large mirror, you can “frame” it using wallpaper border. With this style, you appear to be in a portrait while looking yourself at the mirror. Aside from framing the mirror itself, why not try framing a whole wall side. Then, place a large mirror or photo at the center.
Ceiling Tray Effect – Add flair to your home by placing border at the topmost part of the wall where it meets the ceiling. See to it that the border is uninterrupted and surrounds the room. That creates a tray effect to the room.
Multiple Bordering – Another decorating option is to use multiple, maybe two or three, wallpaper borders of different kind to create a unique look. Multiple bordering includes a fun mixing or blending of two or more designs. If you want a simple yet elegant look, you can also opt to use two borders with the same style. This trick allows you to have a layered effect in your room. You can start making your multiple borders by arranging the various borders, two borders for instance, on a flat surface such as table or floor. Get the width of the two borders and put a mark on the wall to determine where the borders will be placed. Begin where the wall meets the ceiling. Paste the straight-edged strip at the uppermost part, overlapped by the die-cut strip.
Stripes – A stripe-designed wall can be achieved by arranging the wallpaper borders vertically instead of the traditional horizontal bordering. This is an effective trick for elongating a room with low ceiling. Just bear in mind that the border color and texture coincide appropriately with the wall paint color or wallpaper.
Chair Rail Border – Wallpaper Border can be placed in the middle portion to appear as a chair rail. In a room with both painted part and wallpapered part of the wall, this style can be used to separate the two sections. It can also be partnered to a stair rail where the other side is a wall. Dining rooms are also perfect for this kind of wallpaper border decorating.
Wallpaper Borders are wonderful additions to your walls. You can purchase wallpaper borders from online shops or from your local supermarts.
