For those of you who know me, you will know that I have a serious passion for fashion and interior design. I’m always looking through catalogues and magazines at the latest hot trends and it was a few days ago that I came across Miraentu Interior.
Miraentu specializes in something, which I feel is rather unique and new to the industry – wall art. Instead of buying a tangible object to place randomly against your wall, why not buy some wall art, which is actually on the wall? It will not only save space, but will also add a wonderful touch to the room as a whole. Matching your colours and designs would be key here, as I feel this could make or break your setup, but if you match correctly, it will most certainly give you something to feel good about and something to show off to your friends and family.
I’ve been through the site, which unfortunately is not in english, however I have selected a handful of the designs to show here, just so you know what I am talking about, enjoy:
Head on over to Miraentu Interior to have a look at the rest of the range. Personally, I think this is a fantastic way to add that extra little bit to your room!
Nice. I like the second one with the greys, awesome.
Oh ye, the chocolate walls make the designs stand out so nicely!
Wow, I really love this, and it’s an easy way to add that extra touch to an otherwise bland area – digging the apple & mice on wall especially :)
Ye totally! I really want to order, I’ve been trying to find a site with a similar product, but in english, etc.
I will post if I come across something, as this is something I would love to give a try!
I’m so going to hunt for vector based images to work out my own templates. I think you would need a stencil-like a sheet of overhead projector plastic, perhaps lazer cut or using great care and an art knife. Painting by hand could come out a bit messy … anyone got other ideas ?
More than house interiors, i like being at your blog !!
Good work ! Keep it up dude ;-)
Don – Ye, that’s the thing about these things, it looks easy enough to do yourself, but when you try, it never comes out the same! hehe
Ankit – what a fantastic compliment, thank you very much, hope to see you around more often!
Top right corner are 3 language options, English is one of them.
Enjoy
Explain more..
On the site, you mentioned that it is not in English. They have 3 language options in the top right corner of their site.
You can choose English.
Holidays make me slow, sorry bud, thanks a million for spotting that, no idea how I didn’t! Will head on over right away!
Owe you one!
@Dono B – I’ve done this before (fairly successfully… I did exactly what you suggest – traced my design from a printout onto a projector sheet, then used a wicked sharp art knife and patience and slowly cut it out. Then used a lighter to smooth the edges. The important thing is getting the stencil to stick COMPLETELY to wherever youre stencilling… If its on a wall, rather trace the stencil with pencil or something light, instead of trying to paint over the stencil – the paint will just run down between stencil and wall… and look kak. It also depends on what paint and on what you are painting… But take care – extra patience while preparing and setting up will result in a better final product. Like junior school woodwork – measure twice, cut once…. THe message can be applied here too
Oh yes – and if the design is incredibly intricate, or a very large scale is required – companies do exist that will laser cut it for you. But it is pricey, so you gotta weigh up the options… It is fairly easy to make a stencil yourself if you have a steady hand, patience and a sharp knife…
@Greg – Since then, I’ve seen that some of the sign writers use a vinyl cutter, its a large scale printer / plotter that will trace around huge sheets of vinyl “sticker”. Compared to a stiffer plastic sheet, this material is much thinner and softer and already packs its own adhesive. One would need to get a negative of the image being painted so the vinyl bits that remain would be masking out the wall where you didnt want to get any paint (should stop the leaky behind). Great tip on using a lighter to smooth edges.
