Looking to enhance a wall without paint or paper? Here are some good ideas I have seen while reading a few of my favorite blogs…I saw this photo on Material Girls…
Style Court encouraged her readers to take a closer look at the
wall in John Dowd’s home styled by Carlos Mota.
Branches make a beautiful alternative.
Oh so creative Jenny over at Little Green Notebook saw this in Southern Accents…
and was inspired to use happy tape in her entry.
Lauren’s Pure Style Home husband stenciled this whole wall.
French Stylist Camille Soulayrol created a whimsical wall in a mud room.
Have you done something or seen something I have missed that is a great idea? Let me know!

Great ideas! –
thanks
Sunny
p.s. hope you all enjoyed the snow:)
Lauren’s husband deserves a “best hubby” award for his stenciling job. It looks amazing and really gave their room a finished look.
Using branches is truly inspired!

Love that mudroom wall! Of course, I WOULD like the off beat, little bit funky one!
Fun post.
Great inspiration, Laura! What wonderful ways to add depth and texture to a room!!
That coat/purse hanging rack is the best I have ever seen!
Very creative – an excellent conversation piece!
Especially love the first image! Great ideas.. unusual concepts!
Just an fyi…the top room with the daybed was designed by Robert Brown, from Atlanta.
Thanks for the shout out Laura! Very creative spin on branches that you’ve assembled.
Thank you so much for the “mention” – via Material Girls. Great post – with some unique options, love that “whimsical wall!”
My favorite is The Little Green Notebook/Southern Accent office!
Great ideas- especially love the branches on the walls!
Oh, I luvvvvvvv happy tape. That Southern Accents page is a favorite of mine. Love everything about that room.
Great ideas, with a small change the whole space looks different. Love the branches behind the oil painting.
Thanks for putting together such a great list of alternative wall decor ideas. I am always on the look out for unique ways to dress up rooms. Similar to Lauren’s stenciled room, I hand-painted my favorite wallpaper design on my dining room walls because I couldn’t afford the Farrow and Ball paper. I’m pretty happy with the result: http://www.apennysavedblog.com/2009/08/dining-room-tour.html
I might have to try Jenny’s happy tape sometime too!
