Modern hallway decoration – The perfect choice for your home is here

The corridors are usually dark, narrow and unattractive, this, generally speaking. However, we can give it many uses, a library or a gallery are good options. Many times they are so narrow that it is difficult to give them a function or make them look nice and cozy. For this reason, today Facades World we will share with you modern hallway decoration that we have selected, thanks to which you can give a new touch to this space in your home.

Once again we will show you some inspiring ideas of modern hallway decoration, this way you will add functionality in this space, and you will make it original inside your house.

Modern hallway decoration – Which one suits your home best?

Mirror decoration

One of the best ways to make a narrow hallway feel larger is to add oversized floor-to-ceiling mirrors. If it's too much, you can try a wide, framed mirror, but be sure to use this option in the modern hallway decoration.

The mirror will give brightness and depth to the hallway. Another way to hallway decoration through mirrors is to place a collection of framed mirrors of different sizes and styles, but of the same color palette. The important thing about decorating with mirrors is that they are able to enlarge and illuminate.

Light and bright paint

In addition to enlarging with mirrors, you can try luminous paint. The light is reflected and is capable of widening a dark and narrow corridor. Remember that cool colors do the opposite and if you paint a hallway a cool color, it will not only reduce the space but it will give the illusion that the wall falls on you.

Lighting

Another way to modern hallway decoration it is through lights. You can try a striking design, which will surely add style, or you can add different lights and lamps to disorient the eyes and not notice how narrow the walls are. Or try hanging lamps of different lengths and sizes. It is important that you take into account the size of the corridor to place a certain design of lamps.

Decorations and paintings for the hallway

You can place decorations on the walls, such as sculptures, paintings, or a narrow table with a vase and give them light. This will bring the focal point to the ornament, creating the optical illusion of widening.

Utilitarian furniture that will come in handy

Just because hallways are notoriously narrow doesn't mean some furniture can't fit. A slim sideboard, like the one seen in this Barcelona home, offers some extra storage and keeps the space from feeling too sterile.

rugs

Different rug patterns offer visual interest, and similar color palettes maintain a unified look.

paint a wall color

A decoration trick widely used to give life and interest to corridors is to paint a colored wall, as we see in the following image.

Potting Dwarf Pines - Learn How To Plant Them Quick And Easy

The dwarf pines for pots They have become a great alternative to decorate the exterior of our home. For this very reason, our colleagues from Architecture Planet Today we have shared a new post in which we will see how to plant them easily and quickly. So, if you are interested, do not move from the screen because we are starting right now.

How to plant dwarf pins in pots

Plant dwarf pines for pots It is a very simple task that anyone in your home can do. The only thing you need is an available flowerbed and 30 minutes of your time to be able to do it. The best thing about these dwarf pines is that they have a very slow growth and above all they are very easy to care for. Let's see the step by step that we prepare for you.

What are we going to need for our dwarf pines in pots?

Three dwarf pines (you can buy them at any nursery near your home)
Fertile or fertile land. You can find it as compost in some places depending on your country.
White stones for the garden (you can use the ones you like the most but we liked the idea of making a contrast using this type of stone)
Scissors or cutter (whatever we have in our house)

How to Plant a Potted Lemon Pine - Step by Step

The first thing we must do is remove the weeds and the remains of other plants that we have in our flowerpot or flowerbed where we are going to put our dwarf pines. Our colleagues had this flowerbed which they had shown and featured in stories of Instagram so that his followers can comment and recommend what they could do with him.

Then to plant our dwarf pines in pots what we have to do is make the holes to introduce each one of them. In this case we made three holes because we had three dwarf pines to transplant. The diameter of each hole is approximately 10 cm wide x 10 cm long and 10 cm deep. Likewise, when you have the dwarf pine in your hand, you will find out if you need to dig a hole a little deeper.

With our well done, we take our first dwarf pine and proceed to make a cut with our scissors on each side of the plastic pot. We do this to be able to remove the pine more easily when transplanting it. Then we must repeat the procedure with each of the pines that we have to transplant to our flowerpot or flowerbed.

Now if our dwarf pine is ready to be removed from its temporary plastic pot to go to our flowerbed.

Taking organic compost or fertilized soil we cover each of our dwarf pines so that they can grow and adapt to their new one optimally.

About Us We suggest that if we have this fertilized land we use it later in the entire flowerbed. It will be good for the flowerbed to renew its nutrients and it will give a new earth aspect to the aesthetics that will make your dwarf pines look much better.

Now if the dwarf pines are finally transplanted and with their soil fertilized throughout the bed. We only have the last step that is decorative.

As a last step, what we must do is take our white stones that we had previously selected and place them around the newly planted dwarf pines. It will give you a great aesthetic look with the contrast of the brown of the earth and the green of our lemon pine.

How to paint on canvas - Learn the step by step to achieve it correctly

Would you like to renew the decoration of your dining room, living room or bedroom but you do not have much money? We tell you that you are in the right place because today in Facades World after the comments they left us on YOUTUBE we will show you how to paint on canvas correctly. So if you liked the proposal, do not detach yourself from the screen because we are starting right now!

How to paint on canvas correctly

If you got this far it is because you are wondering how to paint on canvas correctly, we tell you that for this we must choose the right paint and know how to prepare the fabric. Painting the fabric, be it a dress, a T-shirt or a banner is something that we can do in a simple way. As long as we have the ability to choose the right fabric and the right paint to make our work look right. To choose the ideal paint, what we must do is choose between an acrylic paint or a textile paint. These are paints that contain a pigment suspended in an acrylic medium specially formulated for use on fabric. They are easy to find in craft or DIY stores, so you just have to follow these steps. Let's see…

Steps to paint on fabric correctly

The first thing we must do is choose the right fabric to paint, let's keep in mind before starting what we want to transfer to the fabric. Ideally, use 100% cotton fabric, such as sheets or T-shirts as they absorb paint well, but the truth is that you can experiment with any fabric you want. We suggest that when buying it we talk to the owner of the store who will know how to recommend the ideal one for our work.
Once the fabric is chosen, it will be good that we also have a small sheet or polystyrene plate on which to place the fabric when we go to paint. In this way we can draw and paint on a surface that will serve as a support and avoid future problems with paint splashes.
Before starting to paint, we must wash the garment if it is new since there are always fibers from its manufacture that may not grip the paint in the correct way. Therefore, you only have to pre-wash the garment, let it dry and you can paint it. Perhaps it is one of the recommendations that we will hear when we buy the fabric but it does not hurt to clarify it.
If the garment that we are going to paint is old or used, what we must make sure is that it is well washed so that it does not contain traces of starch or fabric softener that could interfere with our work of art.
If we can take the time to iron the garment, but especially the part where we are going to work would be ideal. In this way we will prevent any wrinkles from distorting the work done.
Once we have the fabric ready, we prepare the workplace by covering it with plastic or newspapers so that the paint does not stain anything. Then we spread the fabric, put the polystyrene underneath, and began to paint.
When we paint we can do it freehand or find molds of the drawing that we want to make on our garment. There are thousands of designs that we can make and download.
We suggest starting by making the contours of our drawing. Then from the outside to the inside we will fill in the drawing that we have made.
Once we have finished our paint job on the fabric, we recommend letting the garment dry for 24 hours to be able to use it.
For the wash we must wait 24 more hours, but we suggest not doing it until after 5 days of having done our work. This reasonable time is for the paint to fully cure.

From Facades World We hope and hope that this step by step to paint on fabric correctly will be of great help and pleasure for all of you.
