A decorating trend that is gaining popularity is hanging everyday objects on your walls for decoration.
For example: hang several mirrors of varying sizes, colors, or styles in a group on your wall. You can mount the mirrors or hang them from colored ribbons. But whatever you do, these will make for a unique decorating experience!

Hanging alphabet letters of different sizes and fonts is also gaining popularity in house design. You can spell words that have personal meaning for you, artistically display the alphabet (in a nursery room or small child's room, for example), or you can simply tack up random, un-related letters for visual impact.
These letters can come in all materials, colors, and sizes. Group them in a hodge-podge fashion to draw the most attention to them.
Your friends & neighbors will call you an interior decorating expert!

Mount empty picture frames in lines or groups. This works great especially if you have an ugly colored wall that you simply want to distract attention from, or if you have a gorgeous wall that you want to decorate but still want to see through to the wonderful wall beneath. Again, you can hang these frames from a colorful ribbon or simply nail them straight into the wall.
Instead of leaving them empty, you can add backdrops of fabric or material behind the frames. A flowery fabric will give off a "country or english garden" feel, whereas a shiny metal-like material will give a more modern and industrial vibe.

Use porcelain plates as a wall decoration. Put a few in black metal brackets. The plates can be cheap china bought from a flea market, or grandma's antique dinnerware. They can be any size, color, or design. Arrange in a line or in a group. This is a very easy idea because, most likely, you have more china than you know what to do with!
Why not use some of those plates (that you rarely eat off of) for an inspired decoration?

Buy some sort of small rack with hooks or knobs (like a key hook for car keys) and hang different kinds of mugs and cups with handles from them. You can paint the hook rack any color you desire, and hang all sorts of mugs from it. Mugs you've inherited from grandma, decorative teacups, hand-painted mugs, or mismatched mugs from an antique store.

Skeleton keys are antique, embellished keys of all shapes & sizes, usually cast-iron or metal.
Mount these unique keys straight onto the wall, or hang them from hooks or ribbons.
These old-timey, mysterious keys will give your house a country "secret garden" feel!

Plastic stick-on phrases come in boxes and adhere easily to your walls. You can buy phrases like "Life is not measured in the amount of breaths we take, but in the moments that take our breath away." These sayings come in varying colors and sizes, and you can peel them off your walls easily whenever you want to move it.
They are usually around $20 a phrase. What a simple, pre-packaged way to express what is important to you!

You can also mount small bird houses to your wall. This would probably work best in a garden shed, a bird-themed bathroom, or any other wall that you want to leave otherwise bare.
You could just choose one or two birdhouses for your wall, or you could choose many! The choice is up to you and the look that you are going for.
You could also build a shelf (high up along the ceiling would probably work best so you won't hit your head on it) and line up all your birdhouses on that shelf.
As a matter of fact, you could mount a long shelf on the wall and use it to display any items that you desire!

• Mismatched items and patterns are BIG now! Don't worry if your items don't match, because that is the style now! Better yet; buy them mismatched on purpose for the greatest visual impact! You can't go wrong with mismatched items arranged in an esthetically-pleasing arrangement!
• Make sure, if you're about to nail or hang something heavy onto the wall, that you find the JOIST (or stud) and nail it into the joist. This is the strongest part of the wall because you will be nailing into wood and not just drywall or plaster. We don't want any of your wonderful creations crashing down to the ground because it was too heavy or improperly mounted!
