#WallOfAwesomeness

So I have moved into a new place and my bedroom looked really plain; no decors, no life, no color. It was more dead than a cemetery.

We couldn't very well afford expensive wallpaper and all that stuff, so we had to work with what we had! And that was DIY crafts.

BEHOLD, the wall of awesomeness that you're about to encounter may look like it had been put together in about ten minutes, but, as we Maldivians say in our language, (a proverb that's famous in our country) "Navah kuraa baaru engeynee ken'bah" which roughly translates into

"The heaviness of the boat will only be felt by the anchor.

:D

So tell us what you have done to decorate your walls, study tables, etc etc to make it more lively. :D

Re: #WallOfAwesomeness

Nothing yet though my sister and I will be splitting our room into 2. We have an idea of what we want to do with it. Her side will be navy blue and full of Dr. Who and Jack Frost. My side will be black and full of mythical creatures/spellbound books, etc. we want to put a small white line in the middle so the colors don't mash and the difference is easy to tell. That's at least what we want to do.

Re: #WallOfAwesomeness

so basically my wall seems quite a typical teenager wall to me honestly,,. my wall is just a few posters of 5 seconds of summer with a lil christmas light around it (i put the posters in order as a square idk if you know what i mean;/ )

but i am planning to get bunch of posters of my other fav bands like green day ,the 1975, etc. and put little shelfs on the wall to put books and cute little cacti plants;D


be kind. always.

Re: #WallOfAwesomeness

Malu, you are so creative, you know that? I really love your ideas! It's been a while since I've done a DIY. The last one I was planning to do, I got a gift that replaced it, soooo .... being the lazy person I am, I didn't end up doing it.

I like your idea bloodsy! Really wanna see it when it's done!

torifan, cacti plants always seem to add so much life!

As I said at the top, I didn't end up doing this DIY, but I'm gonna share the replacement and share how I was planning to do it. I think it actually added so much life to my otherwise boring walls.

Remember this? Gorgoeous!!!

So basically, what I was planning to do is this. After finding out how the parts looked like:

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/71q%2BL9nXYPL._SL1500_.jpg

My plan was to get three or four colorful sheets of paper that would resemble the pink shades and the brown and cut them into similar shapes myself then use glue to stick them to the wall. The only problem with glue is how hard it would be take it off later. So what I would recommend is agreeing with your family about a wall that you're not planning to change later if you plan on trying this.

Re: #WallOfAwesomeness

What me and Amary did was use double tape. It comes off easily.. waaaay too easily so we ended up sticking it all with super glue.

Re: #WallOfAwesomeness

I really like all of y'all's ideas. My wall is pretty bland but where I do have stuff, I put up my hand drawings as well as sticky notes of inspirational quotes form songs, people, movies, and even just random quotes that made me smile or think a little.

I have this corner that's just like yellow because of all the sticky notes there.

Re: #WallOfAwesomeness

lol, Angel! I kinda wanna try that here. But I made a vow not to clutter my walls ever again. I just have that tree I showed you behind my bed (I don't have  a full bed as I hate how heavy those are, so I just have a bed frame with a mattress on and long covers to hide the sides -- looks perfect!) and a clock and soon very soon -- two pink frames with two cat pictures inside them.

I never tried super glue on the walls which was I hesitating, Malu. Does it leave marks after you take things off?

Re: #WallOfAwesomeness

All my wall has is this one lonely MCR Danger Days poster bc tHEY DON'T SELL POSTERS HERE D: and the only reason i have that one is a promo on their cd.

but looking at your awesome wall malu, I kinda wanna decorate now :D My mum n dad are planning to move my family's room arrangements around tho (bc me & my bro & my sis share a room and my bro's growing up so they're like "we gotta separate them") so I kinda feel conflicted on whether I should do it now or l8r especially since the room arrangement thing doesnt seem like it's happening anytime soon haha.

TL;DR Ur wall is awesome and I wanna decorate my wall now.
