Making My Bare Walls Beautiful with Urban Walls [Review]

I've been in this house for a little over a year now, and I'm ashamed to say my master bedroom is still only half finished.

I've unpacked the boxes (most of them) and hung a few mirrors and pictures (on one wall).

My walls need help.




Urban Walls is a company that specializes in wall decals.

I've never used wall decals in my home before, but have seen them online before and in stores and figured they were a great way to add design and style to your home without having to paint or commit to a completely permanent design.

There are a variety of designs available, from text or words...........................









to nature scenes..................................................




 and nursery rooms.......................................................




It was hard for me to decide on a design, as there were so many that I thought would look great in our bedroom. 

At first I wanted a tree design, then I thought some birds in flight would be serene and calming.



I ended up choosing a monogrammed design, since it's in our master bedroom and I felt like something personalized. 

Check out my BEFORE and AFTER below:

BEFORE


My peanut wants to be wherever the action is

What a boring wall, huh?  I hadn't hung anything previously, because I'm always afraid of something falling on our head while we're sleeping. Is that strange?

Well, a wall decal can't fall on my head...or if it did, at least it wouldn't hurt!



AFTER



Now, with a simple wall decal from Urban Walls, my bedroom feels lived in. It feels like it's mine, and I like that feeling!

I have to be honest, the application process wasn't quite as easy as I had assumed.  It was completely do-able but you do have to use a level and tape to make sure you have it up straight.

I also had a little trouble with the decal sticking to the paper and having to wrestle with it a bit to get it to peel off without tearing. I ended up enlisting my husband to help with the process because I couldn't get it done myself.

That being said, I love the end result.  So, if you're in need of some love on your walls, check out Urban Walls!
