WE SPOTLIGHT THREE WAYS TO TRANSFORM AN UNINSPIRED ACCENT WALL INTO A CONVERSATION STARTER BY LIZA GRANT SMITH
A WALL MURAL

Murals create an instant focal point in a space. While wallpaper continues to trend, murals present an opportunity to go bigger and bolder. They can depict everything from florals and botanicals to landscapes and exotic environs, meaning they’re an easy and elegant way to bring the outdoors in. In contrast to traditional wallpaper, which offers a seamlessly repeating print, wall murals contain scenes in panels. Adhesion methods, finishes, and sizes vary, so be sure to do your research to ensure you select the best option for your desired result. Naples-based Daisy Bennett Designs, the brainchild of wallpaper designer Jaima Emmert, boasts a gorgeous collection of wallpaper murals. Peruse the website for options and then contact Barley’s Wallcoverings & Interiors in Naples at 239-262-6049 to order. (daisybennettdesigns.com)
