After moving day, the stark blank walls of your new home can begin to make you feel a little crazy. While most interior decorators recommend moving in and getting a sense of each room before painting walls or experimenting with any wall decorating ideas, sometimes all that empty wall space can leave you drawing a blank. However, thanks to Pinterest there\u2019s no shortage of wall decorating ideas. From DIY projects\u00a0to intricate built-in wall decorating ideas\u00a0for your new home there are so many options. Here are some of my favorite wall decorating ideas.<\/p>\n

Photo Gallery Wall Decorating Ideas<\/h2>\n

Of all the wall decorating ideas, a photo gallery wall is a classic and easy way to make your new place feel like home. While some choose to line up same sized frames into a neat grid, others might mix it up by offsetting different sized frames in a cluster. Home photo galleries offer endless wall decorating ideas. Start by arranging frames on the floor over large butcher paper. After tracing out frames<\/a>, mark where nails should go approximately on the paper and tape the paper to the wall. Hammer nails in marked places and then tear the paper down. This easy method will help you develop your wall decorating ideas without poking unnecessary holes in the walls.<\/p>\n
