Unique Home Decor Options for the Theatre Fan
By Arthur Sneddon

You are a person that has always loved the theatre, be it musicals or plays. It just so happens that you are thinking about redecorating your home. What better way to show your appreciation for the arts than with unique home décor?

Unique Home Decor Idea #1: Posters and CD Covers as Wallpaper

Perhaps you have a particular room in your home that you have devoted to your theatre memorabilia collection. This is the ideal place to use theatre posters and CD covers as wallpaper, be it just on one wall, or, for the particularly avid theatre fan, all the walls.

All you have to do in order to accomplish this unique home décor design is to take all the theatre posters that you have (unframed), as well as scans of album covers, and use poster putty to anchor them to the wall. They become a sort of wallpaper when all of the items are places closely together in collage form.

Unique Home Decor Idea #2: Mirror Decorations

All theatre fans have a favorite group of actors or actresses. For this unique home décor idea, you will need to consult the internet. Visit various websites and get a bunch of solo pictures of your favorite theatre stars. These pictures can be professional, candid, or a mixture of both.

Next, find a mirror that you use on a daily basis (it should be a wall or bathroom mirror). Then resize each photo that you have found so that they are about 1 inch by 1 inch. Print and cut out all of the pictures, and arrange them around the mirror for a nice theatrical frame.

Unique Home Decor Idea #3: Build a Library

Theatre fans often have a large amount of theatre books, DVDs, and albums in their collection. Such an impressive collection should be shown off by attaching shelving units in a unique design. The shelving units should just be the typical linear ones that you simply attach to the wall.

However, instead of just making the units look like a linear bookshelf, position them like steps going up and down your wall. You can also make the shelves slightly diagonal, but just be sure to have some good bookends!

For More Information

These are but some of the many different ways you can decorate you home in a theatrical fashion. For more ideas, look through various stage design books, or search the internet. Or, simply take some time to implement your own creative thoughts. After all, there is no better way to pay homage to a love of theatre than by unique home décor.
