When it comes to giving your living room a quick update, there are plenty of choices available to you. You can change the doors or the door handles. You might want to pick a more vibrant color for the drapes or the feature wall. One of the easiest ways to make a significant change to the look and feel of your room is to add some wall art. Here are a few great ideas on how to make your wall art pop!

Wall sculptures – These are often made from a type of metal or carved wood. Some of the best ones for the living room can be found in your local garden center. They may be intended to decorate your yard or garden, but they work extremely well on an otherwise boring painted wall. Leaves on vines are very popular shapes at the moment. You can pick them up in a range of metallic colors or a gorgeous varnished wood.

Pop Art – It’s back again! We just can’t get enough of the intense colors and iconic imagery that comes with something created by Andy Warhol. There may be plenty of contrasting colors within his artworks, but you only need to pull out one or two of them to make the rest of your room pop too. If you’re not sure if a substantial canvas is right for your wall, you can pick out some pop art posters to hang instead.

Indoor Plants – Indoor plants can provide structure and color in your room. Some are tall with elegant leaf shapes while others can be fierce and dramatic in appearance. Choose spikes and stems, or leaves and volume to suit. Plants can be used to frame the spaces your wall art occupies.

Lighting – For the latest trendy lighting, you only need to look online. There are far more choices this season than ever before. You might not want to change wall light or ceiling fittings, but floor lamps can go a long way to changing the style and feel of a room. The light bulb is key to the effect you get. Choose LEDs for cheap running costs, or pick special color changing bulbs you can control with an app. Use the light to profile your wall art choices.

Sculptured Ornaments – Ornaments representing humans and their relationships continue to be popular this season. There are some beautifully carved versions in wood at the top end of the budget scale. You can pick up some glazed pottery for just a few dollars. Think about the size you want before going shopping or you may find your purchase never sees the light of day. Place them on shelves on your feature wall, or on top of your mantel. Position them opposite other wall art for balance and contrast.

Wall art can lighten and brighten a room. Some choices may even provide talking points when you have guests over. Make the most of your wall art by framing it with natural plants or using your room light to highlight your favorite pieces.
