Thanks for all of the nice comments on my Master Bedroom Makeover. We love spending time in our new room!!
In the Bedroom Reveal post, I had a lot of people ask questions about the Herringbone Focal Wall.
It’s one of my favorite parts of the room.
Here’s how that wall was created:
I knew from the beginning that I wanted the wall behind our bed to be a wood focal wall. But I also loved the wall opposite. It’s kind of an oddly shaped wall and I wondered what I could do.
My friend Shelley from The House of Smiths was over one day and she suggested a pattern on the wall. Shelley and Cason have a vinyl shop – The House of Smiths Designs where they sell all kinds of awesome vinyl for home decor projects. They have a whole new line of new designs, including a herringbone product in a few different sizes. SO cool!!
So she and her cute husband came over and we all put it on the wall. What a great friend!!
You can head over to House of Smiths for more detailed instructions on how to apply the vinyl and more ways to use the decals!!
I just love the way it looks. And the nice thing about vinyl is it’s perfect. I love to stencil, but it’s really hard to get a perfect finish with paint. With vinyl your edges are perfect and if you get tired of it, you just peel if off. No need to repaint. It’s also a great idea for people that can’t paint their walls – like renters.
And if you want the look of herringbone without a whole wall — you can do something like thsi — DIY Framed Art:
Isn’t that cool?? You can put the vinyl on the glass on top of a picture and have fabric or paper in the background for a 3-d look! I think this would look so amazing in a gallery wall, or what about in a big size above a sofa??
Or I think it would look AMAZING on a flat-panel door. You could paint the door a bright color and do the decals over the top. What a focal point!!
I also love that you can order an accent color in the vinyl herringbone — like the gold in this frame.
And look at all of the colors available. So cool!!
Another design that I love is this lattice vinyl:
It would dress up any open shelving or shelves so easily!
I also love this Scallop Vinyl. I really want to do this in my pantry. You can paint the background any color and then add the vinyl on top.
And with Halloween just around the corner, I love these Halloween Ideas and Halloween vinyl decals:
I am excited to start decorating for Fall!!
Thanks again to Shelley and Cason for all of their help with the Herringbone Wall. I just love it and I think it adds so much personality to our new master bedroom!!

Have a Creative Day!

Love this!!!! I have seriously been looking at that same stencil for a bout 2 weeks now thinking I probably need to get it and do a wall in my living area. I really like the paint color you have on that room as well, it really pops with the herringbone.
Jen says
Thanks Teresa!!
We just love that wall in our bedroom! Good luck with your living room!
