Stripes:

To give your place a funkier look use a wall and paint it in strips. Create different sections with the help of tapes and then paint each section in different colours. You can either go for vertical stripes or horizontal ones.

Ombre:

If you want to be more audacious, you can go with ombre and create a wall going light to dark. You can easily create this effect yourself. Simply, start by painting the wall first with the lightest shade then a little darker one and lastly with the darkest one.

Use Stencilling:

You can also use your walls as your canvas and create unique patterns and figures and paint them. You can either draw a free hand or you can use ready to use stencils for giving your walls a swankier look. Simply, place the stencil on your wall and trace it out with a pencil then add the details with your paints.

Sponging:

Sponging is a painting technique in which you combine two colours using a sea sponge to create a mottled pattern. You can start by giving a solid background to your wall then create different patterns using the sea sponge.

Ragging:

Ragging is another technique using which you can create extraordinary patterns on your walls and give them a complete makeover.

Additionally, you can also create patterns by rolling the rag into a roll and then roll it over the surface of the wall.

Creating an Accent Wall:
