Using the technology of painting walls, it will be easy for you to complete the decor, the main thing is desire and, of course, inspiration. You can create a picture on the walls with your own hands in a short time. The main thing is to decide on the idea and forms.
Looking for inspiration
The Internet or special magazines to create an interior will help you solve the problem of lack of inspiration. In magazines of the appropriate nature you will find a lot of options for painting the walls of the bedroom, children's room and living room. Now the choice is yours - choose your favorite design and do not forget to add something from yourself to it. The main thing is to have original drawings on the walls in the apartment. With your own hands you can create a real masterpiece.
Wall preparation
First, you need to select the wall on which the drawing will be applied, and clean it of the old coating, such as wallpaper and paint. But some painted surfaces lend themselves perfectly to applying plaster. The plaster will not lie only on the surface painted with oil paints. The drawing is applied to the plaster, which is evenly distributed in advance on the wall and completely dried out. You can do without cleaning the walls, if they are pasted with wallpaper on which you can apply paint. These can be varieties of non-woven, paper or glass. Thoroughly cleaning the walls will give you the perfect drawing. Now let's talk how to make drawings on the walls in the apartment with your own hands.
Necessary materials
Prepare all the necessary tools in advance so that then there is no ridiculous situation. Buy brushes. It is better if there are three of them, and they will all differ in the thickness of the pile. If you decide to apply the drawing using the template, then take care of the presence of a roller or sponges.
Paints for this design will suit any. But so that the pattern on the walls, created with your own hands, lasts longer, use moisture resistant. Another important point in choosing paints is their density. They should not spread, but too thick will not work either. If this is your first time drawing on a wall, do not select too many colors. Use no more than three. Having chosen even only one shade, as a result you can get a beautiful abstract picture that will fill your interior with something mysterious. If desired, you can use a spray can of paint, but only if you have experience. To facilitate the work, take a palette - on it you can achieve the desired shade. The role of the palette can be played by an ordinary white plate. Put a sheet of paper (heavy) next to it, on it you can check how the desired shade falls.
Getting to work
Drawing must be in harmony with the decor in the room. The drawing room with the image of geometric figures is perfectly emphasized by the living room. The children's room should have images related to animals or cartoon characters. To revitalize the room, it is not necessary to choose sophisticated technology. Perfect image of vegetation, complemented by butterflies, and so on.
We draw a background. It must be applied to a damp surface so that the paint is evenly distributed on the wall. After the background, proceed to the image of the sketch. It is applied with a simple pencil, tracing paper or copied paper. If the image is large, then the wall needs to be marked with a level so that the picture is even. The main rule in drawing a drawing is drying. Before applying the following elements, let dry those that are already flaunting on the wall. You can speed up this process with a hairdryer. But you need to do this from a distance so that the paint does not flow. But if you're in no hurry, let the image dry on its own. The pictures on the walls look very stylish. With your own hands, paint the old wallpaper - and you can get a completely new design of the room.
Screen drawing
This type of wall painting is suitable for those who do not have special artistic skills. So, we draw on the wall with our own hands on a stencil. This is easier than it might seem at first glance.
Where to get the template?
You can pick up a picture on the Internet and print it on thick paper, and then cut it out. The paper should be quite moisture resistant. Even a plastic paper folder is perfect . With it, a self-made picture is created on the walls.
If there is no time to search for a stencil on the Internet, then you can purchase ready-made templates in special stores. Some studios can make a stencil for you according to your drawing, and you just have to stick the image on the wall.
How to apply a drawing using a stencil?
The most important thing is accuracy. After each application of the element, the stencil needs to be cleaned, or you will become a victim of the smeared uneven color of the picture. The stencil is tightly applied to the wall with adhesive tape. When removing it, make sure that the primer or wallpaper is not damaged.
On the walls in the apartment you can highlight some areas. Decorate them with butterflies or flowers. Images of trees have gained popularity in modern wall design. Blooming Japanese sakura painted on the wall looks very beautiful. Perfectly enliven the apartment and the images of cats. For a children's room, you can create a real starry sky. Such a pattern looks spectacular if luminous paints are used.
The drawing is varnished. The varnish is applied with a thin layer and small strokes. Dry it after application so that it does not drip. The work is ready. Now your guests will be pleased with the drawings on the walls in the apartment. With your own hands, you not only decorated the room, but also brought personality to the home.
Finger and Roller Drawings
Unusual decor always looks attractive. Do-it-yourself wall drawings can be done using your fingers or the usual roller. You can create whole pictures with your fingers. The most important thing is to think over the drawing in advance. Paint needs to be put on a finger in a small layer to avoid streaks.
The drawing can also be done using the roller. In Romania, this is no longer a new fixture for wall design. To apply the picture to the walls, you will need a relief roller with an image and paint. Or take a small sponge of any diameter. In this way, you can draw cherries that will decorate the corridor or walls in the kitchen.
Almost any person can make such an image, even one who does not know how to hold a brush in his hands. The result will appeal to romantic and gentle natures.
Projector to the rescue, or Game of shadows
Not everyone can use their artistic skills to do the painting on the walls with their own hands. An ordinary projector or lamp can help in this matter. This option is well suited for people who are not easily given the art of drawing. Pick a picture, print it on a sheet and direct it to the wall using a projector. Circle the contours and paint.
The drawing is also applied using a projector, only the image is much more complicated and a lot of colors are used. In special stores you can buy a finished picture with a palette. In the figure, all colors are numbered according to the numbers of the palette, this will facilitate your work. Point the projector with the picture on the wall and start your creative work.
