What is a website or store where I can find random, funky wall art?

Q. I want to find random, funky wall decor. I once found an '&' sign in Earthbound Trading while on vacation, but their website doesn't allow you to buy anything and I'm nowhere near another Earthbound store. Are there other stores that might have better websites where I can look for random and cool things like that '&' sign?

A. Try this!

www.google.com

Keywords: funky wall decor

What kind of wall decors will you use to decorate your room? Wall Shelf or wall paper or wall light?

Personally , I love wall paper/wall pics. hehe ^-^

A. In fact, i like wall art, something like this one: http://www.hihomedecor.com/contemporary-flower-pattern-hand-painted-unframed-canvas-wall-art-set-5pcs but i don't know what your room style...

What are some cheap ways to decorate walls?
Q. I just moved into a new apartment and the walls are bare and boring. I'm REALLY tight w/ cash right now so I cant go out and buy a whole bunch of paintings/ frames/wall decor, etc. I also don't own the apartment so I cant paint the walls any other color.
What are some cheap ways I could make the walls look interesting and original?

A. Got some photos you wanna hang but no money for frames and you don't want to damage the pics?

Step 1. Go buy some 1 inch wide black or whatever colored ribbon and stretch a piece horizontally and secure in place with tack or some small nails.

Step 2. Secure a length or ribbon vertically at the top to the back side of the horizontal ribbon with a safety pin (so the pin doesn't show).

Step 3. Use masking tape to tape the backs of the pics to the ribbon. It recommend taping across the ribbon instead of making a tape "loop" to try to hold the pics to the ribbon. Intersperse the pics along the ribbon length.

Step 4. Add more vertical ribbons and pictures until you have a beautiful hanging picture gallery. Space these as you pleas and change them as you please. You can even use different length vertical ribbons or put your pics at odd lengths to give them a random and chic look.

Step 5. Complete the look by attaching large funky looking beads (or whatever you want) with safety pins to the bottom of the vertical ribbons to function as weights and to add depth to the overall look.

This whole thing shouldn't cost you more than like $5 plus a little time.

You can get nice, fairly large, mirrors for around $15 from the Dollar Store or Walmart. Mirrors add A LOT of punch in any given room and help to add light. Check yard sales, thrift stores, and others and you might find them cheaper.

Use bright tacks, ribbon, clear spray paint (to spray the paper to add shine) and construction paper to make a funky decolage background for a wall clock. I made mine into a 4 point star and used the tacks to hold the ribbon so that my 4 point star became an 8 point one. Adds depth to the room and makes use of a small wall clock that by itself would be boring.

Yard sale, yard sale, yard sale! Go early in the morning and you can find some AWESOME stuff for REALLY cheap. I mean pennies on the dollar! This also applies to thrift stores! Look around and see what you can find. You don't have to decorate it all at once!
