Fresh Design Ideas: Custom Murals Help Show Off Your Furniture
Monday, November 26th, 2007
All great masterpieces need an appropriate backdrop against which their beauty can really be displayed. What if you could set off your gorgeous furniture with a custom wallpaper mural? Think of it: the night sky spanning the walls of your bedroom, or a cozy French country scene in your bistro or lobby. That would really set the mood, and also give guests something to enjoy looking at while they waited. If you have a pet shop, why not try an underwater scene to amuse your patrons? Or a view of the Italian countryside to back your contemporary bistro furniture?
I have just come across a site that lets you order custom murals using your own pictures. You can even test them out online by uploading the images. Then you specify the dimensions of the space you’re working with, and voila! A preview of how your image would look on your walls. Pretty nifty.
Now, this is assuming that you’ve got lovely furniture worth showing off. If not, obtaining it should be your first step. Then you can go play with the mural creator and pick out a great setting for your new furniture. You can find styles that suit every space, from baby bedrooms to wine bars. Some of the more whimsical designs would look good with antique reproduction furniture, and others would work best with minimalist styles.
To see the selection for yourself, go to Shop4Wallpaper, or just do a Google search for custom wallpaper murals. The biggest and best will only set you back a few hundred dollars, which is pretty good for such a memorable addition to your decor. There are also thousands of wallpaper borders to choose from. With some creativity and coordinating paint and furniture, your business could go from uninspired to unforgettable in no time.
