Freshen Any Room Decor With A Wall HangingThis post contains affiliate links but all opinions are 100% mine :) Freshen any room's decor with a new wall hanging. It is an easy, simple and affordable way to update for any season. A freshly painted living room was a task done this year that initiated a desire to also freshen some home decor for the upcoming Christmas Holiday. I was looking for a completely different look in the room and that also entailed a whole new feel with the room decor. New updated covers for the furniture, new area rugs for the floor and now it's time to freshen the wall decor to finish off the room. The search was on...let's see what I found. Ideas Overflow On The InternetWith the popularity of Pinterest, I have been watching for some new ideas for this holiday season. I wanted something a bit different but affordable. I am a DIY’er so I was looking for something easy as well. It would also be an extra perk if I already had the materials in my every growing craft stash. The ideas have been flowing and a few caught my attention. By tweaking a few of the details I have come up with my own look and feel to pull the new room together. This particular project was to update and freshen up my Christmas decor but this idea can be used year round with just a few changes. With just a few simple, easy steps using basic tools this can be done within an hours time. The materials are affordable and you may possibly have some of the supplies lying around your home, even if not they are easily accessible in any craft store or even dollar thrift store. I hope you like what I created and encourage you to create one for your home decor this season as well.
