After a house fire, hubby thought it would be great to brick up a window to make space on the interior wall for a massive tv. The bricks were supposed to be set in a herringbone pattern. Now I'm stuck with this hideous eyesore. I am thinking ironwork Wall art and landscaping to blend it in. Any creative suggestions? It is on the back of the house at least.
I agree with you. Some kind of wall art, or even some tall landscaping to just cover it up. Although, it probably looks worse to you than to others. :)
I may try a glass collage on wood to fit. Then I can change it from time to time. I was going to do that to the end of my new kitchen island. I found a stained glass fireplace screen at a yard sale but it was still $$$. Thought I could light it from behind with rope lights.
Oh goodness! I would go to a salvage yard and find some cool metal piece to add as a focal point of interest. Or buy a nice piece that you like. He got his jumbo tv, you get a nice looking house! It doesn't look terrible and I would treat it as a "frame" for whatever you choose. Have fun!
It looks like you've got the perfect frame for some artwork. If you aren't artistic/don't have painter friends, there are great stencils available on amazon. Could be fun & not to hard to change when you want a different look.
Where does this wall face? My first thought was a perfect way to create an outdoor theater? But if it's the side of the house I really liked the idea of a lattice iron-work idea with, perhaps, a window box beneath.
