Recently, I have been a bit bored with my room. Specifically the walls. My violet-y purple walls. They were so blank. I knew I needed to add a bit of pizzazz. So, I took on the risky project of decorating my room. Not regular decorating, DIY decorating.
In case you don't know what DIY stands for, it means 'Do-It-Yourself'. Basically, you're making your own homemade decorations. This option it a bit risky because it may look cheap and rushed. But if you do it right, you'll be fine.
I added two new things to my wall, the first is a wall sticker. I was strolling around at the dollar store because my sister needed some paint for her school project. I came across wall stickers in the arts and crafts aisle. I found great designs of bamboo sticks, flowers, skulls and others too. I was drawn towards the one with pink, purple and blue flowers. I picked that one up because it matched my room perfectly. My sister picked up the bamboo one because her room is an "earthly" theme. Her colour scheme is brown, green and beige. Mine is purple, pink and white.
I also wanted another decoration. I had been thinking of this one for a while now. Since I am into photography, I decided it would be cool to get some of my best photos developed so that I can hang them around my room, showing me the progress over time. I was just going to stick them on the wall though (how boring). I wanted to do something different. I decided to take some straw-y string and hang that around my room. Then, I would use wooden clothespins to hand up each photo, side by side. Eventually, the photos will add up and my room will be decorated.
So that's two of the ways I decided to spice up my boring walls.
