And what do you recommend to hang on walls, for decorative purposes, besides family photos?

Mine are blank and barren, an empty canvas for the maniacal decorator in me, after carefully negotiated with the family.

Mostly shelves, wardrobes and stuff. Some bike wheels.

Mostly either photos I took or photos of relatives taken by a photographer.

My walls are full of nerdy art I picked up from the artist gallery at my local comic/anime/gaming conventions.

I go for stuff like ruby art's works that I think still look good to non fans

I have a poster from here with the text of one of my favourite books arranged as a picture. It's quite the conversation piece. If books aren't your thing, you could always go with the first million digits of Tau, the Streets of Portland, the Constitution of Dalaware or the Kama Sutra.

Books are my thing.

Sword rack. It looks cool and can either have mall ninja crap or genuine weaponry depending on your preference

And it tells others so much valauable information about you

A lot of mixed paintings. Mostly morbid ones. Many by Beksinski or Pieter Bruegel and some largely unknown artists like FΓΌssli.

On walls should be something that inspires you everytime you walk by. Or makes you happy, or pondering. Whatever that might be.

Find a skateboard deck that you like and hang that up as art.

I have 2 foil art pictures. Afaik it's a toner print on cardstock and then a foil is baked on the paper and peeled leaving only the foil on the parts where the toner was earlier.
One is a moon in silver holographic and another is an entry ticket to "space" with a gold foil print

Picture:

Ordered on Etsy. If requested I will try to find the page of the seller.

Why are you just ignoring whatever that text panel is next to it. We just what?

Absolutely nothing. Except for a small shelf that's technically nailed to the wall but it's painted in the same white as the wall so I'm not sure it counts.

Maps are a great form of cheap wall art, also estate sale auctions usually have alot of wall art for cheap.

[–] federalreverse@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Three walls with just a light paint, one wall with a color or patterns. I really like the Asanoha pattern (Japanese hemp leaf).

Occult Anatomy poster. Reefer Madness poster. That's it.
