Walls are not just for fortification. When it comes to decor, there's a lot one can do with it to beautify your space. If you plan to revamp your living room or even your office space, you need not change the entire decor for that, all you need to do is use decals and watch your room transform. Decals are peel-on vinyl sheets with an adhesive base that can be glued onto the surface of the wall. It's also a medium through which you can make a personal statement and keep yourself surrounded with your favourites.

With home decor going beyond the need to hoard artefacts, de-clutter is now considered to be the key to a well-done house. And for those who are more inclined to make a minimalist statement, decals are the easiest way to do that. Convenient and high on aesthetics, decals are available in a variety of designs -from classic designs to movies and toon themes. Let's take a look at some of them.

ABSTRACT FORMS

Abstract decals have dual benefits -one, as an art piece on the wall, and secondly, as a substitute for an artifact. A decal can create an illusion -there are trees with frame like branches that can be used to hang photo. Besides providing aesthetics and connectivity , it can be functional as well. For instance, one can also hang clothes on these by fixing hooks on the abstract designs.

FOR KIDS ROOM

There is a plethora of designs to enhance the look of children's room. There's no limits to the designs that can be displayed here -from favourite cartoon characters to re-creation of space. Anything can be replicated.

QUOTES ON THE WALL

Inspiration quotes to kickstart one's day can be placed at a prominent location. These come in various fonts that can be chosen accordingly to the decor. Even structures can be created with these quotes.For instance, a coffee quote in a cafeteria can be pasted in the shape of a coffee mug.

OUTLINE DESIGNS

These are outlines of the design which adapt according to the wall's base colour. These arty backdrops are used to replace structures of furniture. Like a bed without a post can be made to look complete by pasting a decal with a similar design. It can also be used to bring life to a plain wall with prints that replicate windows, Victorian lamps and other such designs.
