Interior Design and Decorative PaintingAnyone can paint a room. But with faux painting techniques you can literally transform a room into a masterpiece. There have been a multitude of decorative painting techniques that have come onto the market in recent years. From the simplicity of a stencil border to the grand effect of a granite wall, the choices for decorative painting ideas are virtually endless. Faux painting techniques can be learned by anyone and decorative painting is also easy on the budget. If you are looking to spruce up an old bureau or add color and interest to a child's room, you have choices abounding in providing your own artistic flair to your home. Many of the decorative painting techniques that are used today originated in Europe, where furnishings were adorned with faux marble and wood-tone effects. Now it has become simple to add old-world techniques to modern-day homes. Decorative Painting is Cost-Effective If you have shopped for wallpaper recently, you have probably found that covering a room in high-quality wallpaper is far from inexpensive. There are also special tools and pastes that are necessary to complete a project like this. The good news is that with a can or two of paint and some inexpensive tools, you can often create your own personalized wallpaper effect in a room. By using stencils or stamps, you can give a wall a creative pattern with customized colors that blend beautifully with your décor. In a living or dining room, you can add an elegant stencil that can give a European flair to your dress-up spaces. For a touch of whimsy in a child's room, you can create a mural using an overhead projector and picture as a template. Simply trace the chosen drawing on the wall, and then it is merely a matter of paint-by-number! Some companies even offer patterns for designs and pictures that can be painted directly to your wall surface. If the idea of a mural intimidates you, there are many fun stamps that can be used to apply images to your walls as well. From flowers and butterflies for little girls to bugs and lizards for the youngest males in your household, you are guaranteed to find the perfect stamp to add a decorative painting touch to any room in your house. Decorative Painting can Really be Used Anywhere Well, almost anywhere. From furniture to accessories, and walls to ceilings, there are very few surfaces that cannot be accented with decorative painting techniques. Even kitchen cabinets can sport stenciled borders or stamped patterns. The key to adding decorative painting is making sure that you have a good smooth base coat in place to act as your canvas. If you are unsure how to get started with a decorative painting project, your local craft store can supply you with endless ideas and plenty of good advice on where to begin and what to paint. For a first-time painter, you can get your painting feet wet with a small project like a picture frame or a jewelry box.
