Using Lovely Wall Plates to
Enhance Your Home Decor
by Candice Pardue
Wall plates are gorgeous pieces of art
that can truly enhance your decor for any room of your
home. Each wall plate is unique and has its own
special design and colors. Creating a theme for your
decor in each room is simple with wall plates.
Themes for Every Room of Your
Home
Wall plates come in many different
styles, designs, shapes and sizes. They can be made of
wood for the more rustic atmosphere, or fancy metal to blend
with elegant decor.
With a little creativity, you can
create a detailed theme for a room and top it off with
decorative wall plates.
Kitchen Themes and Wall Plates
In a country style kitchen, wall
plates with animals painted on them such as roosters,
chickens, pigs, etc. might be useful in adding color and
personality to your theme. Fruit is another great
design for kitchen wall plates, and can beautify the room
with a variety of colors.
Kitchens with a more modern theme might benefit from simple
floral painted wall plates or a landscape theme. Your
wall plates can be chosen to match the kitchen's current
decor or look and feel as well as its colors.
Living Areas and Dining Rooms
Your living area and dining room can
both be enhanced by adding wall plates to the decor. A
variety of themes and colors will fit well into these rooms,
and can be coordinated with your current decor. Some
theme ideas might include animals, angels or religious wall
plates, and landscape designs. Hang wall plates near
other portraits or paintings to create a three dimensional
prospective on your walls.
Bathroom Decor and Wall Plates
Although wall plates are rarely seen
in bathroom decor, they can be actually become a lovely
addition to your bathroom. Create a soothing, relaxing
atmosphere in your bathroom. Match wall plates to your
shower curtain or window treatments for a charming bathroom
look and feel.
Wall Plate Decor Methods
There are several ways to implement
wall plates into your room decor. Wall plates can be
hung on the wall, either individually or in matching
pairs. Also, there are gorgeous wall plate sets that
hang together on a decorative wall mount and each wall plate
has a different painting, even though they all reflect the
same theme. Compliment your wall plates with wall shelves,
flowers and portraits.
Wall plates can also be placed on a decorative stand or
easel on any flat surface such as a desk, table, window
sill, or cabinet shelf. The stand can be metal or wood
to create the look and feel you want.
Each room has a special place for a wall plate (or
two). Wall plates provide an inexpensive and simple
way to display colorful paintings throughout each room of
your home.
