Decorating Your Home with Canvas Prints

Decorating Your Home with Canvas Prints

We always want our home to look attractive and appealing to others. We do everything we can from cleaning, renovating and decorating it to achieve the look that we want. You can always buy some paintings to decorate your walls but if you are after something that is different or unique, choose canvas prints. It is a great way to display photos in an enlarged format. They have more a lifelike appearance compared to other wall decors.

Print photos on canvas have becoming increasingly popular as a great way to decorate your home. Canvas prints are a perfect masterpiece to enhance the beauty of your home. In addition to ease in cleaning these décor pieces, they are also affordable. There are certain guidelines to follow to properly place canvas prints in your home.

Depending on the size of your canvas print, such as 20” x 24” canvas photo, 16” x 20” canvas photo, it may or may not constitute the focal point of the room. Place the print opposite to the room's focal point for balance. You can also align it with your focal point if you want.

It is ideal to choose smaller canvas prints for narrow walls and larger canvas prints for big walls and spaces. A large print on a small wall makes the print feel overwhelming and the room seem smaller, while a small canvas print on a large wall makes the room feel disproportionate and empty.

The theme of the print also matters to complement the motif of the room you are decorating. The color of the print can make a room larger or smaller. Neutral colors such as blue shades are calming while vibrant colors such as yellow, red and gold bring excitement to a room.

Select landscapes for small rooms since they open up small spaces virtually. Sunsets, horizons and landscapes are great examples. They act as a sort of window that gives the vision of a faraway view, making a small room appear larger. It is highly recommended to place the canvas prints at eye level to allow viewers to maximize the viewing pleasure and the message they convey. Avoid placing them closer to the floor level.

Whatever your interior design preferences are, canvas prints is a versatile decorating option for your home. You have several options for the subjects, colors and sizes. Make sure that these factors complement the room where you want to display your canvas prints.
