Interior design is a complex and multifaceted system, with many components. Just wallpaper or painted walls no longer satisfy the average consumer. You always want to bring some zest to the interior. A small detail that will set the direction for the perception of the design as a whole.
One of these details, of course, can be considered wall panel which, of course, can be purchased at ready-made and just hang it, or you can do it yourself, and then it will surely become a key element.

What is a panel
In fact, a panel is any composition on a wall or ceiling that has its own, clearly defined place in the interior. By the way, any picture hanging in a house in a strictly defined place can also be considered a panel. As well as compositions from photographs or bas-reliefs.
Today, do-it-yourself wall compositions are becoming more and more fashionable, and they act not only as decoration, but also reflect the inner world of their creator. There are many materials for making panels and the choice depends on the design features and personal skills of the one who works with them.
Decorative panel on the wall
The most popular materials are:
- Paper.
- Tree.
- Mirrors.
- Ceramic tiles with glazed surface.
- Gypsum or alabaster.
- Small stones and shells.
- All kinds of fabrics.
- Photographs both from the personal archive and printed from the Internet.
How the composition will look like is a matter of taste and your own idea of \u200b\u200bbeauty, and I will only consider a few of the most popular options that can completely change the entire design in the room.
How the composition will look like is a matter of taste and your own idea of beauty
Choice of location and theme
An important aspect of a well-designed design is harmony. It is she who creates coziness and comfort in the room. You can often find very rich interiors in which a lot of money has been invested, but this does not stop them from being tasteless. On the other hand, one can consider Japanese style minimalism, where there is practically no furniture and accessories, but at the same time, elegance and comfort are felt in everything.
Achieving harmony is not easy, and one of the most important nuances- this is a strict adherence to the chosen concept. If a Provence-style interior is planned, then the composition on the wall in the form of, say, a portrait of a pop star will completely destroy harmony and bring dissonance. Each style has its own, clearly defined idea, and it is she who must be followed when selecting all the elements.
No less important is the place where the hand-made panel will be located. For example, compositions of mirrors or any other materials with a reflection effect are best placed in front of a window or near light sources. A mirror hidden in the shade creates a gloomy and depressing mood. There will never be comfort near him.
If the composition is made of family photographs, then its place is on the most prominent section of the wall, where it will attract attention.
An important aspect of a well-designed design is harmony.
As for general view, you can highlight a few tips that will help you correctly place accents and highlight the panels from the general style:
- In any composition, it is desirable to use a baguette or frame, and its color must be clearly defined. If the composition is made in the same color scheme, as the wall decoration, then the baguette should play in contrast, and if the color scheme is contrasting, then the frame should repeat the color of the wall.
- The theme of the composition should correspond to the purpose of the room where it is located. In the bathroom and toilet, a water theme is suitable. In the kitchen, food. And so on.
- The materials of the composition must match the style of the interior. If this is Provence or country, then the materials are stone, wood, fabrics. And for hi-tech or art deco, glass, metal and plastic are suitable.
Now that you have decided on the theme of the composition and location, you can proceed directly to the manufacturing process with your own hands.

The most important thing you need to do decorative panel with your own hands, this is patience and perseverance. Often this is a very painstaking work, which can take a lot of time. But the result will not be long in coming, so we stock up on creative enthusiasm and go ahead, to work.

Triplex composition at home
Above, I already mentioned compositions from photographs, they are the most in demand today. Photo archives have moved to computers, and the remaining albums are gathering dust for a long time in the drawers of tables or chests of drawers.

If there is no desire to carry a pile of photographs to a specialized studio, you can make a composition from printed photographs on glass.

- Glue reactive with glass.
Panel of wedding photos
Everything you need for the composition can be purchased at hobby stores, and you can print a set of photos yourself on a computer, increasing them to right size.
Important! Glass for photo composition should be very thin. As a rule, it is 1.5-2 mm. Since glasses of greater thickness have more weight, and this is undesirable.
We cover one of the glasses with paint and wait for it to dry completely. We choose the color ourselves based on personal preferences and the tips presented above. Next, you need to make a collage by laying out photos on stained glass. When the composition is ready, apply a thin strip of glue along the edge of the glass and carefully cover with a second layer. The glue sets almost instantly, so everything must be done quickly and avoid mistakes.
Now it remains to cut down and install the baguettes and the panel is ready, you can hang it on the wall using liquid nails or glass glue.
Interesting! Factory triplex glass is produced using a similar technology, with the only difference being that after joining the layers, it is sent to the furnace, where high temperature there is a soldering turning glass into a strong monolith.

Gypsum bas-relief or three-dimensional composition
Making a composition from gypsum with your own hands is much more difficult than from glass, but this is how you can get a three-dimensional panel.
Any object can be transferred to a bas-relief, and it is possible to do it with your own hands and at home. Consider the process using the example of a simple cup, the cast of which will look very relevant in the kitchen.
To begin with, we need any container larger in size than the cup we have chosen. We fill the container with sand in such a way as to immerse the cup exactly halfway into it. The surface of the product from which the impression is taken is covered soapy water to keep the mixture from sticking. The original form is ready and now it must be filled with gypsum or alabaster mortar.
Important! When pouring the solution at home, the form must be constantly slightly shaken. This drives out all air bubbles and eliminates the appearance of pores on the surface of the product.
Gypsum panel
When the solution is dry, carefully remove the mold from the container with sand and remove the cup. As a result, we got a cast that exactly repeats the copied product. The cast must be allowed to dry thoroughly, after which it is smeared with the same soapy solution and filled with a new portion of the mixture.
Thus, we got half of our cup, made of plaster. You can make as many such elements as you like, corresponding to the subject.
Finished parts of the composition can be painted in any color. Now it remains to make a frame of baguettes, which is immediately fixed on the wall. The surface is painted and elements can be fixed. Here, as in the first version, liquid nails are suitable.
