How to Decorate with Unique Home Decor

Home decorations don't have to look like everyone else. If you want a style of your own that looks fresh and new, try using unique fabric on the walls. This inspiring home decor technique will give your bedroom a whole new look.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • patterned fabric
  1. Step 1

    Explore unique home decorating ideas by using colorful fabrics on the walls. Complementary fabrics that match your curtains and comforter can also be hung on the wall to create a unique design.

  2. Step 2

    Hang the fabric in a unique way so that it can be pulled up on both sides to give the illusion of a curtain or shade. Ribbon can be tied around the fabric on either end to lift up the sides and create a window appearance. Unique home decor additions to the curtains would include metallic hardware.

  3. Step 3

    Intensify the unique decor by using colorful glass beads on the bottom seam of the fabric where the ribbon pulled the fabric up. These beads can be sewn into place or attached with fabric glue. If you choose to use hot glue, make sure that it doesn't burn or melt the fabric.

  4. Step 4

    Accentuate the wall fabric by placing silver hardware like a small dresser door knob or cabinet knob at the top corners of the fabric. You can attach the fabric to the wall with a small tack and just use the metallic hardware to give a finishing touch to the top of the fabric. You have just created a unique home decorating design for your wall.
