Celestial sun wall decor will make an upbeat, festive splash in your casual living areas: sun room, patio, family room; even a bathroom or kitchen. You will discover dozens of ideas for sun decor in your home.

The inside entrance to your home is a great place to set a welcoming upbeat tone for your home. Let's start with a metal sun wall decor piece. Hang the sun on the wall high enough to hang a functional coat rack below it. If you have a large enough wall here, accent with smaller moon and/or stars for the "whole" look. Select the style, color and size that is appealing to you and a style that compliments your home overall.

The family room or casual living area is a fun area to decorate with celestial sun moon wall decor. Because of the size, this would be a great room to include the popular star wall decor as an accent. Either above the mantel or behind the sofa--whichever you would like to be your main focal point, you can hang a large, classy sun wall hanging. Accent it with wall pockets or metal wall candle sconces. Use a pair of star shaped wall pockets and fill with artificial greenery and/or bright, sunny flowers. Sunflowers are really popular right now. Candle sconces, with a leaf or star motif, incorporated in the design will help carry your look. For a more upscale sun wall decor look, you may want to try a more abstract sun look--one with no face or a piece that just has a sunburst, ray look.

Continue your sun wall decor to the smaller wall spaces in your room with a grouping of stars or stars and moon. Including a mirror or wall clock in the grouping, when enough space is available, adds an extra touch to the room. Just make sure the home decor accessories have the same style and feel...whether casual, country, traditional...

One room we have found to be quite popular for sun wall decor, is the bathroom. In most baths, you will need to find smaller sun decor. One suggestion, would be to hang decorative sun stepping stones. Most of the decorative stones, on the market, have hangers on the back just for this purpose. The stepping stones are a good size and resistant to the humidity and moisture found in bathroom areas. The bathroom is a fun room to hang a small, "sunny" windchime. Finish it off with a small artificial flower pot with bright daisies or sunflowers. A small sun plant poke would make a nice finishing touch.

I think you will agree that just about anything goes in the kitchen today. Sun decor will be great to brighten up a small, wall starved kitchen. It would be extra fun if you are lucky enough to have a breakfast nook. The normally limited wall space in a kitchen is broken into small, odd shaped areas. So, lets go on a search for some smaller, unique sun wall decor. Keep your eyes open for a small moon or stars to accent and mix and match with the sun decor. Hang your favorite sun wall decor piece above the kitchen sink or on a wall space at the end of your cupboards. Hang the smaller accent, celestial pieces on the narrow wall area between your wall cabinets and the counter tops.

This area, I would recommend, that you focus a grouping in one area to create a focal point. Then above the cabinets, if you have a wall area, decorate with small sun, moon star decor, interspersed with kitchen and family word art. If you have a ledge above your cabinets, place a sun on a pedestal--you may be able to use short plant pokes. Give a back drop and "fluff" the area with artificial greenery, sunflowers and vases--they are all a great look with sun decor. In the breakfast nook, it would be fun to include a rooster with the sun theme. Mixing and matching is very popular, fun and easy--if you like it, go for it! Sun kitchen home decor can also be worked in with an Italian kitchen theme, just use more of the rich, deep coloring associated with the look.

Lets step outside now--first, lets consider the screened in, 3- seasons porch. This area will come to life with a bright sun wall hanging right next to your windows. Consider a sun themed water fountain on a tabletop. Add wall pockets and vases with silk grasses and flowering sunflower bushes--or your favorite flower. Hang a sun windchime in the corner and add celestial plant pokes to your vases. Get the idea...have fun. You could change your wall pocket fillers with each season.

Now step out onto your outdoor patio. A large metal sun will be perfect on the exterior wall, near the door, leading into the house. Depending on the wall area available, you may also accent with the moon and stars. Add a celestial looking bird feeder. Fill large pots with live or artificial flower bushes and silk or live grasses. A sun wall trellis is a unique piece that is a great addition on the deck or in a nearby flower bed.

Sun wall decor is a trendy home decorating theme that you will find fits in the interior of your home or out on the deck. It is a cheery, fun look, that brings the great outdoors to life. Have fun decorating. Homedecoratingstudio.com has lots of great pieces to help with your decorating.
