While white walls allow for the greatest flexibility, you may want to add interest to help make a room look finished with color and texture. Beyond the traditional accent wall, there are some other options that include wallpaper and even wall stickers.

When looking to add a bit of interest to your walls, here are some top tips.

  • Wallpaper: Wallpaper comes in myriad colors, patterns and textures as well as price points. Wallpaper also remains on-trend and has regained popularity for use in spaces from living rooms and dining spaces to bedrooms and bathrooms. Be sure to properly measure your walls and compare to the width and height of the wallpaper you are purchasing so you don’t purchase too much or too little. A professional installation is also recommended.
  • Wall stickers: Wall stickers have come a long way and are now used in a variety of ways and can perk up nearly any room in your home. Wall stickers are a nonpermanent way to add interest to walls but also allow for one’s imagination to flow. Place stickers in whimsical or creative ways while also allowing for negative space. Leaving certain areas white or uncovered will allow the wall stickers to take center stage.
  • Accent walls: Not ready to take the plunge painting an entire room? An accent wall is an easy and simple way to add color to a room. One can add an accent wall that blends or complements existing decor or in a contrasting color for more of a wow factor.
