The symbolic meaning hidden in the decorative elements has a great influence on our emotional condition even if we don't know how to read it. Therefore, when creating a panel in the bedroom, you should understand what you lack anymore - cheerfulness and good mood in the morning or calmness in the evening and at night.
Subdued motives in pastel colors- exactly what you need for a bedroom. In addition, panels, as a rule, try to choose a lighter color than the main color of the wallpaper.
Panel for the nursery
On the one hand, everything bright and cheerful can be in the nursery. Everything related to the hobbies of the child. A decorative panel will look appropriate there. On the other hand, there should be nothing in there that can accidentally scare or cause anxiety and concern. Therefore, do not get carried away when decorating a nursery with animals and birds.

- Ship;
- Fairytale castle.

We do everything with our own hands
It is not at all difficult to make a panel. It is necessary to stick a frame made of baguettes on the wall, and then create the desired composition inside the frame. Or vice versa, make a composition and frame it. As a framework, a polyurethane foam baguette is usually used, it is easy to cut and easily glued to the wall. You can choose a smooth baguette or with a relief pattern, leave it unpainted or, conversely, paint it. You can also use a wooden molding or even frame your panel with thick twisted rope, which will look especially impressive if the room is decorated in a nautical style.

Start making panels with marking. Draw the borders of the frame according to the level, and preferably both internal and external, and mark a 45-degree line in the corners along which the horizontal and vertical elements of the frame will be joined. Prepare the necessary elements of the baguette and glue them on the wall. Select the adhesive in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Now coat the seams between the elements of the baguette with white putty so that they are not striking. If you are planning to paint the baguette, paint it.
Prepare the panel elements and lay the drawing on the floor on a substrate. Take a photo of it and print the picture. It will serve as a hint when transferring the drawing to the wall. Upon completion of gluing, carefully cut the edges along the perimeter of the frame with a clerical knife.
Below are some specific ideas.

Soft details
The kitchen is associated with coziness and warmth, so fabric panels will decorate such a room.

Egg Crackle Formation
Having laid out the workpiece cut from the slab face up on a flat surface, cover it with a primer. It is convenient to apply acrylic primer with a foam sponge. This way it spreads more evenly and dries faster.
The process of making an egg crackle is quite time consuming. It takes the most time. They start to spread from the center or from the corner of the sheet, placing the eggshell with the convex side outward.
On the section of the workpiece, covered with PVA glue, spread a small piece of eggshell and lightly press
When pressed with a finger or a toothpick, the shell will be covered with a mesh of cracks and disintegrate into several pieces, covering part of the base surface with itself. Using a match or a toothpick, move the pieces, giving them the desired position and filling the voids on the sheet.

Rice paper is excellent for these purposes, it will not be difficult to purchase it in specialized stores. When creating a panel, you can not take the entire drawing on a napkin, but only cut out a piece of the desired size from it.
Your task is to glue the napkin without folds
To obtain a flat, wrinkle-free surface, you need upper layer put the napkins on which the image is applied with the front side on the file. The file is carefully applied to the dry workpiece so that the drawing takes the desired position. The applied fragment is smoothed with fingers. The file is carefully removed.

After making sure that the sizes match, the patterns are transferred to the fabric cuts. Having laid out the applique elements on the base, fit them to each other, carefully securing them with pins.
Threads for fabric applique are selected to match, or a contrasting contour is made
When figurines are used in a composition, they are stuffed with the remains of a thin padding polyester to give them three-dimensional shapes. The compiled composition is glued or sewn to the base.

Large compositional elements are laid out on the front side of the fabric, choosing the most attractive arrangement option: a general pattern or an ornament from individual mini-paintings.
Having determined for yourself what the finished composition will look like, the materials laid out on the canvas are alternately lifted above the base and, after applying the glue, are laid out in their original place.
