Don’t have framed art or just want something different? You can make a big visual impact with alternative wall decor that adds personality, texture, and style.
Here are creative ways to decorate a living room wall without art:
Woven baskets or plates in varied sizes
Macrame or textile wall hangings
Floating wood shelves with styled decor
Oversized mirrors to reflect light and open the room
Peel-and-stick wallpaper or wall decals
Sconces or statement lighting as sculptural pieces
Antique window frames or shutters
Hanging plants or mounted planters
Pro Tip: Mix textures and layer elements for dimension, especially if you’re skipping traditional framed pieces.
