WINTER MURALS AREN’T JUST FOR CHRISTMAS

Posted on November 22, 2018 by Ben - Bathroom Ideas, Bedroom Ideas, Dining Room Ideas, Kitchen Ideas, Living Room Ideas, Office Ideas

There are few more stunning sights in the world than ‘winterscapes’. Indeed, such scenes make remarkably striking wall murals and they can suit a well decorated room all year round – not just for Christmas!

Avoiding any obvious Christmas references when choosing a winter wall mural is a must, but from there the options are endless. A little bit of out of the box thinking can get you a genuinely unique look and feel, as we hope to demonstrate here with these ideas. Let us know what you think on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.

BRING YOUR LOVE OF THE OUTDOORS IN WITH A STUNNING WALL MURAL

Posted on October 2, 2018 by Ben - Bathroom Ideas, Bedroom Ideas, Dining Room Ideas, Kitchen Ideas, Living Room Ideas

Do you prefer being outdoors than in? Do you have a love of nature, animals and the world at large?

If so, we imagine that being indoors has you feeling a little claustrophobic, pining for the space you enjoy beyond your front door. Well, we can help.

Wallbeard has a wide selection of wall murals featuring scenery, animals and nature in general which you can use to create a feature wall in any room in your house – your bedroom, living room, kitchen, bathroom or dining room included.

By using photo wallpaper you really can create a ‘window’ into nature – nature from anywhere in the world!

Take a look at these brilliant examples.

Bathroom Wall Murals

What better room in the house is there for an underwater wall mural? This one displays the beauty of a coral reef.

Relax in the bath with this stunning waterfall backdrop, perfectly combining natural greens and the flow of water. Ideal for bathroom décor.

Kitchen Wall Murals

There is no better room in the house to introduce a window onto nature – this one shows the splendour of the Yorkshire countryside.

Look out onto the calm of the lake, the majesty of the mountains and the splendour of the forest.

Living Room Wall Murals

A wall mural doesn’t have to be colourful – when you have the amazing elephant as your subject, it’s all you need. A stunning wildlife mural for the living room.

The living room seems the ideal room to show your love of animals to us – this tiger wall mural creates quite an effect, don’t you think?

Dining Room Wall Murals

Gaze out across the sea to this tropical island while dining with friends and family. A great idea for a dining room wall mural.

In the jungle, the mighty jungle…you’ll often find bamboo! Which makes for a stunning backdrop for your dining room with its vibrant colours.

Bedroom Wall Murals

Look from the comfort of your bed out of this coastal cave to the beach and sea beyond. Stunning wall mural.

Peace and tranquillity is what you want in your bedroom and this avenue of trees brings it in spades. For a bedroom wall mural it’s perfect.

Perhaps you’re a keen photographer – at Wallbeard we give you the opportunity to use your own high resolution photographs to create natural wall murals with a far more personal touch.

Just choose the image you want, upload it to our Wallbuilder and away you go. For a long lasting mural, we recommend choosing our Paste the Wall wallpaper. It’s 250gsm and ideally suited to high traffic areas and durable enough to last for years.

As ever, we’d love to see the wall mural(s) you choose for your home. Email them in to hello@wallbeard.com or share them with us on Facebook and we’ll publish them right here on the Wallblog.

TOP 10 MOST VISITED CITIES IN THE WORLD IN 2018

Posted on October 1, 2018 by Ben - Dining Room Ideas, Living Room Ideas, Office Ideas

Each year Mastercard publishes its Global Destination Cities Index, which ranks over 160 cities on how popular they will be with tourists.

The top 10 rarely changes, except in order, so we thought it would be fun to see how cityscape photos from each of these 10 cities would look on a wall mural in your home or office.

Is your favourite city on the list? If so, perhaps you’d like a mural of your very own?

So here we go…starting with the 10th most visited city in 2018…

10. Seoul, South Korea

The Lotte Tower dominates the Seoul skyline. Makes for a stunning office wall mural.

9. Istanbul, Turkey

Istanbul’s colourful buildings make for a great backdrop wall mural.

8. Tokyo, Japan

One of the most technologically advanced cities in the world, Tokyo’s skyline at night lights up like Christmas – perfect wall mural for the dining room or living room.

7. Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

When you think KL, you think Petronas Towers. An ideal wall mural for an international office.

6. New York City, USA

A different take on the standard New York skyline murals we see – this one shot from above, showing New York’s grid layout at night.

5. Singapore

Singapore could be described as the home of the skyscraper these days – as evidenced by this fantastic wall mural!

4. Dubai, UAE

Dubai has a plethora of recognisable landmarks and continues to develop at rapid speed. But we bet you’ve never seen anything like this view before!

3. Paris, France

You can’t have a Paris wall mural without including the Eiffel Tower! This one looks great in the living room.

2. London, England

With its blend of historic and modern architecture, it’s no wonder London is the second most visited city on the planet. Here you can see Tower Bridge and Canary Wharf in the same shot – super mural!

1. Bangkok, Thailand

And finally…the world’s most visited city, Bangkok in Thailand. The city has so much to offer but for this mural we chose one from the streets. Gives you a real flavour of the city, don’t you think?

You can search for your own city wall mural in each of these cities just by clicking on the name above. Or, indeed, any city of your choice on the Search page. There are hundreds of images to choose from to create the PERFECT skyline or cityscape wall mural for your home or office.

Oh, and as a bonus, as Wallbeard is based in Manchester, we thought we’d pick a Manchester skyline to show you!

The famous Manchester Ship Canal with the Beetham Tower sitting in the background. Manchester all over!
