25 Cute Paintings To Decorate Your Room

Cover up the bare walls with cute paintings when you want to decorate your room. Sometimes, you just need that little something extra to take your decor from boring to beautiful! With so many options to choose from, there is a something for everyone to pick from.

1. Inspirational

You might as well start the day off with an inspirational quote. It’s the least you can do for yourself, especially if you have to wake up early all the time. Cute paintings that inspire you are a great way to decorate your room and give yourself the motivation you need to try to actually be on time for things!

2. Beauty

Decorate your room with all things beauty! Maybe you want a canvas picture showing different mascara types to wear every day of the week. Maybe you a want a picture of Marilyn and her famous red lips. Not only are they cute enough to spice up your decor, they might just inspire you to doll up a little more.

3. Fashion

For those days when you’re feeling glam and don’t give a d***, let your room share that same energy. Channel your inner diva with fashion themed wall art. Keep your eyes open the next time you’re at Marshall’s and you may even pick some up for a great deal.

4. Cities

For all you wanna be world travelers out there, the next best thing is cityscape wall art! From Hong Kong to NYC, there are some really cute paintings out there. You can even go for a whole city theme in your room including a comforter, pillows and a wall clock. Think about it, you could be going to sleep in Paris every night. Sounds kind of nice to us!

5. World Map

If you’re lucky enough to have traveled quite a bit, why don’t you show it off? In a subtle way of course! Use a world map as a wall hanging and use pins to mark off places you have been. Every time you go somewhere new, you can add a new pin to the map. Plus, it’s a great conversation starter!

6. Splatter Paint

You can be the artist with this DIY painting. Splatter paintings are simply that, a collection of paint colors on canvas. You can go for bold bright colors, soft pastels or neutrals. When making one yourself, it’s important to remember that it doesn’t have to be perfect! The “messy” look is actually why we love this style so much.

7. Geometric

Get ready to break out the painting tape and craft supplies for this one. Geometric wall paintings are so trendy right now and are literally everywhere! Hop on the bandwagon and get one for yourself. Show off your crafting skills or go pick one up at Hobby Lobby. Hint: go ahead and add glitter to a store bought painting to give it some extra pizzazz.

8. School Related

Show your college some love with a school related wall painting. Some schools have a cute mascot  that could be worked into the design. There’s also the traditional painting of the state with a heart on the city where the school is located. We know how cute this is from experience (Fire Up Chips).

9. Greek Life

Representing your chapter is a must when you’re in Greek life. What better way to decorate your room than with your letters! You can make cut out letters and hang them in your room or even paint a canvas with them on it. If you’re really lucky, someone in your family tree will be crafty and gift you some!

10. Succulents

These little plants are just as cute in person as they are in paintings. They can add a splash of color into any room. Try a realistic print or modern interpretation of them for a different spin. You can even incorporate real or fake succulents into the room’s decorations as well. It’s good to have a little green in your room.

11. Ombre Colors

When you want to add color into your room without going overboard, consider an ombre wall painting. One of these cute paintings hanging in your room will certainly make a statement. Even if you want more neutrals for your color scheme, this is the perfect solution. A pop of color here and there makes the difference, from drab to downright fabulous.

12. Black And White

On the other hand, there’s a certain classiness that comes from a black and white painting. These paintings add drama and depth into any room you hang it in. To enhance this style of painting, hang fairy lights around your room. You’ll add in more shadows and change the atmosphere of the room any time you turn them on.

13. Flowers

There are so many ways to work floral paintings into your room decor. Do you want something abstract? How about bold colors? Maybe you want something that just looks really pretty. Start browsing paintings in stores and we’re sure you will find the perfect floral painting that fits your style.

14. Nautical

Its anchors away and mermaid sightings ahead. Nautical themed artwork is such an argmazing (we couldn’t help it) fun way to decorate a room. Yes, there is a way to make this theme “grown up”, too. Think more Vineyard Vines aesthetics when you’re setting your room up.

15. Friends

They’ll be there for you! Everyone has seen the show Friends at some time or another. So why not mix together the TV show with your real life friends? Try finding a Friends themed picture frame to hang on the wall. Then you add in pictures of you and your friends having a good time. Could this idea BE any cuter?

16. Abstract

They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so go ahead and decorate your room with an abstract painting! Feel a little bit more put together when you have a “real” painting in your decor. Now it doesn’t have to belong to a famous artist, you can even make it yourself. We’re talking about something that looks classy and sophisticated.

17. Wine

Yes way Rose, to these wine inspired cute paintings. Give your favorite drink some love by hanging wine wall art in your room. It’s always been good to you, so now it’s time to be good to it. Some designs will have darker colors and some will have softer pastels. So, it’s up to you which color scheme to go with!

18. Monogram

If you prefer clean line and simplicity in your room, try a monogrammed wall hanging! A monogram  is your first and middle name initials, which sit on either side of your last name initial. Normally, the last name initial is larger, since it’s in the middle! Try contrasting the monogram color with the background color for best results.

19. 3 Piece Sets

If you have a lot of room on your walls, you can cover it easily with a three piece wall art set! Most sets will have a continuous picture, meaning each piece helps make the scenery complete. There is also an option of three pieces that all complement each other without being the exact same design.

20. Pineapples

Pineapples are one of our favorite kinds of cute paintings to decorate your room with. They have definitely become more popular over that last few years. Some wall art will be the fruit itself, and some will have a quote in the shape of the fruit. We prefer a mixture of the two styles!

21. Glitz

When it comes to glitzy wall art, the more sparkle the better! It’s all about giving your room some personality with this style of decor. You want to spruce up your bedroom with a painting that has some glitter in it. “Leave a little sparkle where ever you go,” is your motto to live by.

22. Boho

If you want to make your room a relaxing space, we don’t blame you! You can try decorating the walls with bohemian style wall art. We tend to think of this as minimalistic paintings with muted color schemes. You can try hanging multiple small paintings to play up the color scheme on your wall to create a statement piece.

23. Boss Babe

Never forget you are a strong, independent woman! To help remind yourself of this, hang up these boss babe cute paintings! Hang them above your bed or hang them over your desk. Basically, hang them everywhere in your room. When life gets you down, know that you’ll come back even stronger.

24. Crayons

This is another wall art painting you can do yourself, if you’re up for the challenge! Melting crayons so they drip down a canvas can be so pretty! Choose the colors you want to use and if you want to incorporate any other design with it. Even if you choose just the crayons, it will be a stunning piece of wall art!

25. Animals

Lions, tigers and bears oh my! If animals are your passion, you should incorporate it into your room decor with these cute paintings. Pick a theme and go crazy with decorating! You can choose a few animal prints, all done in the same style to hang on your walls. With so many options, you’ll have a blast decorating your room.
