Animal Wall Art – Black And White Stripes Or Faux Fur?

Barbara Tobiasz asked:

When most of us think of animal wall art, there are images that come to mind like cartoon characters and fun loving friends of our childhood. In today’s lifestyle you can find jungle animals for the nursery to real life photos that can add drama to your living room or family room decorating theme. There are a multitude of topics, colors, textures and materials to turn your creative visions into your decorative reality.

Here are some items that can be grouped together or utilized by themselves to bring your imagination into a reality. These are some items that I have found that can be pictured in an animal motif. Wallpaper, wallpaper boarders, stickers, clocks, paintings, murals, tapestries, metal artwork, accents, plates and calendars.

There is an overwhelming selection of wallpaper, boarders, murals and stickers for the animal enthusiast. They are quick, affordable and easy to install solution for decorating. There are some stickers that can effortlessly be rearranged or removed and used again and again.  Accent pieces bring the exotic and lively animal charm of the outside world into your home.

In my family room there are copper plated animal wall hooks that have become the focal point of my room. Another animal theme that I have placed on the walls in the same room is animal heads. These are not the real things but serve the same purpose. Above the fire place I have proudly hanging a deer head and in the two corners is a horse and elephant head. All of these pieces are made out of resin and there is faux fur on the deer.  Most of my visitors take one look and ask the question are they real? What I answer depends on the visitor.

To perk up my bathroom walls I have used a border with incredibly vivid fish and dolphins to complete the look. In my kitchen I have placed artwork and decorative plates of roosters and chickens and on the light switchcovers continued with the same theme. 

For ten years the princess of my house has been my cocker spaniel Clea. The entire wall has metal art work of cocker spaniels and in the center is a cocker spaniel calendar. This calendar besides being beautiful has all my activities and special dates to help me get through the day.

One of my closest friends has a daughter who is their only child. To say the least, the child for her age, has everything. I am aware that one of her favorite things is stuff animals. She is fortunate and has many. And it does not seem that she has a favorite one. I found a store that makes a stuffed animal wall mount that can be used as a decoration on the wall. This also can be taken down and played with as an easy to handle puppet. It seems to be a hit because I am still hearing about it!

National graphic is a magazine that I subscribe to. They came out with a fun and educational clock that hangs in my daughter’s nursery. It is a fully working clock that displays pictures of animals and on the hour announces an animal sound. It features the twelve most loved animals. This also came with an educational booklet that will grow with my child. It has detailed information about the animals and the child can add her or his own touch with colors.

Animal wall art is a whimsical or authentic way to add character and class to any room. It allows you to express who you are with ease and elegance. This touch maximizes its contribution to your home. You will be amazed on how animal wall art adds just the right personal touch. With the assistance of animal wall art you will be able to capture spirit and beauty and set it free throughout your home.
