Installing a wall mural can bring a room to life. We bring you new and unique ideas
for installing your mural.
Traditional placement of a mural on a singular vertical wall will always have a
timeless look, but there are many more unique installation options if you want your
home or office to look more creative.
Unique installations can fit into just about any space in your home. Here are some
the ways people install murals in unique ways:
1. Stairway wall - The triangular wall space often formed by a stairway is
a great place for a mural. Murals can be custom printed to be tall on one end and
low on the other. Landscape, brick wall and beach scenes are popular for this use.
Remember you only pay for the square-footage that you need printed, so this use
can cost less.
2. Ceiling placement - A fun and unexpected placement of a mural is on the
ceiling. Some people put murals on the entire ceiling space from edge to edge, and
others choose to start the mural a foot or two in from the edge for framed appearance.
3. Bar or chair rail - If you have a smaller space in need of some visual
interest, a mural is the perfect solution. Adding a mural to the portion of wall
below or above a bar or chair rail adds a unique design element.
4. Alcove or niche spaces - If your home was designed with alcoves or small
niches in the walls, these are perfect spaces for a mural scene. You can easily
fit a wall mural in these spaces and trim to seamlessly match any curves or unique
wall features.
Grommets are a wonderful solution for hanging wall murals. Using grommets resembles
a tapestry & makes it easy to move & re-hang your mural.
If you'd like to hang your mural rather than adhering it to the wall, grommets can
be added to your mural. Grommets are metal rings secured on the circular edge of
approximately 1-inch holes punched at the top of the mural. The metal rings lend
support to the weight of the mural when hung.
Hanging a wall mural with grommets is easy when you use decorative hooks of your
choice securely placed on the intended wall. Then simply place the hooks though
the mural grommets, similar to what you do when hanging a shower curtain. This provides
an appearance that resembles a tapestry.
Grommets are a particularly good option if your mural is printed on canvas material
because it will hang flat. Vinyl options have a tendency to curl, so this material
is better for direct placement on a wall.
Grommets are a great choice when the mural placement is meant to be temporary. For
this reason, it is great for commercial use such mobile tradeshow booths.
Grommets are available in silver or gold. The number of grommets needed will depend
on the size of the mural you order. For example, a 6-by-6-foot mural requires four
grommets to hang properly.
