Hi there!  Thanks for stopping by today.  If you are new here, welcome.  We are a military family living in Japan and I’m currently making over our rental home with inexpensive diys and renter friendly decor.

Renter Friendly Wall Art

Foyer Fan Wall

I’m really excited to share this fun DIY!  Every time I go shopping, I’m on the lookout for light weight wall art that I can hang with command strips.  (Our walls are concrete so even if we could use nails, it would be difficult!)  After I a few trips to the 100 yen store, it dawned on me that oriental fans could be a pretty wall treatment for our foyer.  This is the first “real” foyer we’ve had and it’s flooded with natural light and a lot of wall space!

Did you notice the aqua trim?  When the sun light hits the walls, they turn a blush pink.  Super pretty!  Anywho, let’s get to the DIY.

Renter friendly wall art supplies:

An assortment of fans (our local dollar stores have an abundance of them!)

Command strips (Poster weight is fine for this project)

Even though the fans were inexpensive, a few of them are actually made with real fabric.

To attach them to the wall, just put a command strip on each end.

I quickly realized that I wanted more of a neutral look so I rehung the fans facing backward.  Here they are facing the correct way.

Here they are turned around backwards.  The neutral backdrop still has subtle colors and the textures are so pretty.  A bold IKEA pillow paired with a soft aqua one adds the right amount of “pop”.

The foyer fan wall above our storage ottoman, makes a great little spot to drop off purses and scarves and easily remove shoes.

So for only a few dollars, you can a have an unique, hole-free, gorgeous wall treatment.  Just a few more white walls to go ya’ll!  Do you have a favorite wall treatment?
