1. With Ceiling Mouldings

Those ceiling mouldings have pretty much gone out of fashion except in period homes. But stick a few on the walls arranged in a pleasing pattern, and paint with complimentary colours and they instantly look fresh and modern. How easy is that?

2. With Timber

Timber is a perennial favourite. And it can still be the perfect material to add some flavour to your walls. You can go with the standard wall of textural, warm timber, or you can get a little more creative and make a zig-zagging chevron pattern like you see here. It's up to you how adventurous you want to be!

3. With Pixels of Colour

With small 'tiles' of timber, or pre made hexagonal designs like this one, you can easily decorate your walls with a bold, abstract design like these pixelated creations. Why should you have to stick to just one colour?

4. With an Ombre or Watercolour Paint Effect

Ombre and watercolour paint effects on walls are very popular right now. You can certainly DIY this look -- there are plenty of tutorials on the internet to help you out. But if you want the job done right, you can't go past Service Central's experienced painters.

5. With Bold Geometric Designs

These bold geometric designs couldn't be easier to DIY. Take the time to lay out some painters tape in the pattern you like and from there it's like that game you used to play on MS Paint. Just fill in the gabs with the complimentary colours you've chosen.
