4 Creative Ways to Decorate Your Walls at Home in 2020 Take the phrase home improvement to heart in 2020 with these stylish and functional wall ideas that will
refresh the home.
From chic colour blocking ideas to a plant feature wall, Rebecca Snowden, Interior Style Advisor at
FurnitureChoice.co.uk, shares 4 on-trend DIY ideas just in time for spring.
1. Half-painted colour block walls

Start the new year on a stylish note by introducing a half-painted wall to the home. As a trend that’s expected to
continue its popularity in 2020, half-painted walls are a chance to make a statement with colour without being
overwhelmed by it.
Begin this simple DIY project by choosing a colour with a deep undertone such as Pantone’s Colour of the Year Classic
Blue or sage green and pair it with a light neutral like cream or white for maximum impact. Attention to detail is key
here - prep the walls with primer and use frog tape to create a line on the wall. “On first impression, half-painted walls
generate a modern and striking effect to the room,” Rebecca comments. “Opt for the lines to take up two-thirds of the

wall to create a colourful juxtaposition between the backdrop and the centrepiece of the room, whether that’s the
sofa or bed.”
2. Panelled walls with wooden plant shelf
Inject warmth and texture to the home office with wooden wall panels
which add personality to the room without being overly dramatic. Take
advantage of these features by installing a wooden plant shelf using
reclaimed wood.
“A wooden plant shelf is a stylish way to display greenery in your home
while adding your own personal touch,” Rebecca says. “For this DIY, it’s
important to measure how far up the walls the shelf will be placed to
ensure that your plants get enough sunlight. In line with the foliage
theme, choose a forest green colour palette as it provides an optimistic
boost amidst the warm wood tones of a writing desk.”

3. Ombre feature wall
Introducing an ombre feature wall adds an artistic watercolour effect in
the bedroom. Offering a subtle option to bold colour-blocked walls, the
ombre effect comes to life by blending blue and green together to create
teal - a deep jewel tone that establishes a cosy space meant for
relaxation.
“The ombre look has continued to mesmerise the design world with its
ability to transform any space,” Rebecca says. “When planning, determine
the direction of your colour flow such as from light at the bottom to dark
at the top, or vice versa. A teal ombre feature wall creates a laid back,
tropical look in the bedroom so make sure that the wall next to it
complements these qualities. Choose emerald for its calming qualities,
blending in with the soft textured fabrics and dark wooden tones.”

4. Staghorn Fern display wall

Decorating with indoor plants on the walls is a creative way to display greenery at home while giving the space a
unique twist. With that in mind, opt for a staghorn fern display wall in the living room or kitchen for a raw, natural
feel.
With the help of Zosia Berkieta-Lewis from The Plant Room, this 10-step DIY project requires a lot of preparation so it’s
best to get the tools ready before starting, such as a hammer, nails and wooden boards. “Adapt the staghorn fern
display wall to fit the size of your walls by selecting how many boards you want to put up,” Rebecca advises. “With
everything in place, the warm wood tones of the boards create a natural focal point in the living room or kitchen while
the plants purify the air.”
