My room was recently re-painted. The walls are a tan color with one accent wall that is a cornflower/periwinkle blue. I would like some ideas on cheap DIY ideas for my walls. Something like cutting a picture in half or thirds and putting it on picture frames in a sequence. Pictures of the craft would be great just so I can get a feel of what it looks like.
Answer
You could do so much with those colors. What color is your furniture? If the dresser is white or oak, I would get pictures that have primarily light pink, green or/and yellow and bring the room together. Try to use the same color of furniture for the frames. If you have a dark wood like mahogany or cherry use white frames to lighten up the room or you could even print out a sepia tone print with white frames and put them on the blue toned wall to bring unity with the tan wall. The other question is your floors...I would guess a tan as well since it wasn't mentioned. If so, you could add a small rug that is the primary color you have splashed around within the pictures and nick nacks in your room. Don't forget throw pillows. Those can really make a huge difference in bringing the room together. (I would stay away from bright red, black, and hunter green stick with the lighter more spring/youthful colors.)

(those are just pictures of the colours thats not actually my room, though i love the chair!)
one my feature wall i created a little art work collage type thing where i got a bunch of weird postcards that btw have nothing to do with travelling of countries these postcards have pictures of really random stuff! anyways i have the post cards arranged in a tile like collage (the collage is in the middle of the wall) then i found a artworks by catherine campbell which are kooky and indie and i have one on each side of the collage.

and around the walls i have black and white framed pictures of new york which is a place i love! and im a little obsessive compulsive so they're arrange straight and evenly spaced
like on one wall i have 3 little ones descending like a stairecase and the others are just hung around the room

i have one big tour poster (of the strokes :D) and thats about all the posters i have cause too many posters make your room look childish
one way to make your room mature is having old furniture for a vintage/indie type feel stick with plain dark or light colours nothing too bright or colourful
dont have mismatch walls like one with green one with pink one with yellow etc it throws you off after a while
have all the furniture in similar colour ranges like have them all in one shade of brown
heres a few examples
