3-D Wall Art For Your Home

Woven grasses create great texture on a wall when multiple pieces are grouped together. I have used these pieces on a large wall space. They are easy to hang and seem to be flying off the shelves of West Elm.

I love the idea of placing 3-D art in wall boxes. You can have a lot of fun with this, painting the box a contrasting color to the rest of the wall, then adding in metal artwork. Metal art is popular right now and can be found everywhere.

Tall 3-D art is a fabulous focal point above a sofa. It pulls the back of the sofa up toward the ceiling. When you use wood you instantly get a warm effect, creating a cozy seating area.

Ceramic artist Katherine Dube creates amazing wall sculptures with subtle colors that trick the eye, appearing to climb up the wall in twists and turns. Click here to read Becky Harris' interview with the artist and her creative process.

Create a whimsical feel using these Umbra Wallflowers. Bunch a few of them together, then add more to create waves and spirals. If you use white 3-D art, you can choose a monochromatic look like this, or paint your wall a deep color for contrast. Use them in a nursery or child's bedroom to create a fairy tale, wonderland-like space for new curious eyes!

Add 3-D flying butterflies too, taking off toward the ceiling. I have used butterflies from Umbra. It was so easy to put them on the wall. They come with little push pins. I pushed little metal thumbtacks into the wall where I wanted the butterflies, then attached the butterflies to the thumbtacks by magnet. Check out all the Umbra wall decor here.

Display shapes within a shape! This heart is made from lots of little paper hearts. The texture and color in this shape create a loving little spot in a room.

This 3-D wall mural made of pottery is amazing. Large scale 3-D art makes a huge impression. You can look at it over and over and see new things.

Use 3-D art in a niche for a big effect. The alcove frames the piece, making it feel large and important.

Masks are great 3-D art to hang on a wall. You can also try hanging hats, and other things you love and collect.

It's a climbing wall, and a work of art! Both functional and fun to look at.
