Wear Your He(art) on Your Walls

(ARA) - You’ve heard the phrase “wearing your heart on your sleeve” -- now you can wear your heart (or your favorite photo) on your wall. Thanks to advanced printing technology, you can personalize your living space with wall murals created exclusively for you, using a favorite photo or piece of art.

Murals My Way, a new division of Environmental Graphics, has developed custom software and printing techniques that enable the company to create unique murals using custom images. “Whether it is a photo from your honeymoon trip to Hawaii or your child’s artwork, we can create a mural that will be the focal piece of any room,” says Todd Imholte, president of Environmental Graphics.

“Our company has been manufacturing wall murals for over 35 years,” says Imholte. “Now, with Murals My Way, customers can develop the interior environment they desire with a range of options including our Standard and Gallery Collections, all the way to a totally custom image. Our experience, service, and unrivaled quality will bring a space to life.”

The Standard Collection is a series of murals which are licensed and developed in large quantities; the resulting cost savings are passed on to customers. These murals are widely available, either directly from Murals My Way or at retailers nationwide. Standard murals measure approximately 8 feet by 13 feet.

The new Gallery Collection is an ever-growing library of images that includes categories such as abstract, animals, botanical, children’s, ethnic, photography, religious, scenic, sports and still life. Customers can select an image by visiting the company’s Web site and have it printed to their exact size specifications -- Gallery murals must exceed 4 feet by 6 feet, but have no maximum size.

Murals My Way’s custom option lets customers cover a wall with an image of their choice, printed in the exact size specified by the customer. The company’s staff will work with clients to ensure that the image they are using will produce a high-quality mural.

Standard wall murals are easy to hang using basic wall covering tools, while Gallery and Custom murals require a greater comfort level with hanging wall covering. “We recommend that customers have a professional paper hanger install their Custom or Gallery murals,” says Imholte. “Due to the complexity of the image and the materials used, hanging these murals can be a big project for DIYers.”

All of the wall murals are printed on high-quality paper and come with specially-formulated paste, making them easy to install and easy to remove when you want to change the look of a room without damaging wall surfaces. This makes the murals suitable for apartments, dorm rooms, children's rooms or any room that needs some perking up.

“A wall mural can transform a room into whatever you want it to be, from a haven for daydreaming to a peaceful place to gather and reflect on the day's events,” says Imholte. And now that mural can be unique to you and your home.
