How to Decorate Your Hallway
Hallways can be difficult to decorate, even for those who find it easy to decorate the main rooms in their home (such as the dining room, living room, and bedrooms). Fortunately, if you are unhappy with your hallway, there are some easy ways to liven things up.
Liven Up a Boring Hallway with a Set of Pictures
By hanging a set of pictures on your hallway wall, you can quickly liven up the space. If your hallway is smaller, you do want to be sure that you choose smaller pictures, as you dont want them to overpower the wall. You might choose to hang photographs of your family and loved ones, or you might go with pieces of art instead. Arrange the pictures in whatev er order you like that fits the overall style youve created in the home.
Liven Up a Boring Hallway with a Small Table
If your hallway is slightly larger, consider adding a small end table or nightstand to the space. You want to place it flush against the wall off to one side. A good place might be between a set of doors. Set it off by adding a small dcor item to it, such as a coffee table book or art, a vase of flowers, or a candle. Try to find a table thats interesting to look at and will add some style to the hallway, but you want to be sure that its not going to take up too much space. Its important that youre still able to comfortably pass through the hallway, even with the table there.
Liven Up a Boring Hallway with Molding or Trim
A great way to liven up that hallway, even one on the smaller side, is by adding molding or decorative trim to it. You can choose from a variety of molding options: anything from ceiling trim thats placed between the walls and the ceiling to a chair rail that runs along the middle lower region of the wall. Once you install it, paint the trim or molding a complementary color that stands out. You want it to be noticeable so that it adds some character to the space. If you add a chair rail, you can add even more style by painting the top and bottom halves of the wall different colors. For example, you might paint the top half cream and the bottom a darker tan color to add some contrast.
Liven Up a Boring Hallway with an Interesting Light Fixture
There are ways to liven up the hallway without using the walls of the space. Instead, find a unique and interesting light fixture that can attract attention in the room. If you are looking to make a statement, a wise choice is a light fixture that hangs down. There are hundreds of different light fixtures to choose from. Whatever your personal style and taste, you should be able to find one that will add some appeal to your hallway.
You can choose not to live with a boring hallway anymore. By decorating it using one of these simple ideas, you can create an appealing and stylish space that fits in with the rest of your home.

180 $16.26 Used – Jane Douglas made a habit of checking the Caller ID. Upon answering, the anonymous caller abruptly hung up. Assuming they dialed the wrong number, she shrugged and returned the cordless phone to its cradle, bumping a womb-like vase full of autumn flowers. It appeared to hit the floor in slow motion. Rich, vibrant hues of red, purple, orange and yellow scattered while fine specks of crystal salted the maple wood. She mourned the disposable splendor as she selectively picked the large fract |
