Create Something Special with Flex Moulding Strips
At Velida, we see daily how our Flex Moulding Strips can completely transform a room. But did you know you can use them to create something truly unique? Think of an arch with a mirror, an artistic frame, or even a stylish furniture makeover. With a bit of creativity and our strips, you give every room a unique character.
In this blog, we cover some fun DIY projects you could tackle with our Flex Moulding Strips.
An Arch with a Mirror as a Statement Piece
A decorative moulding strip in arch form instantly creates a soft, organic look. Perfect for those who love a calm, modern style. By placing a mirror within the arch, you turn it into a functional artwork that enhances light and space.
First determine the position of the arch, for example above a dresser or in your hallway. Use a laser line to determine the height and mark the center. With a piece of rope or painter's tape, trace a crisp arch shape. Next, cut the Flex Moulding Strip to size and paste it along the line. Our strips have adhesive backing, but you can also use mounting adhesive and small nails for extra stability. Finally, choose a mirror that fits nicely within the arch and neatly finish the edges with filler and paint for a polished look.
Artistic Frames on the Wall
Flex Moulding Strips are also perfect for creating large frames on your wall. Think of a border around a painting, a wall lamp, or wallpaper. If you paint the strip the same color as the wall, it creates a subtle relief that draws attention to the center. Many customers use this technique for gallery walls or to give a loose fixture a bit more luxury. On large walls, you can place multiple frames symmetrically. Just make sure to maintain equal spacing for a calm, balanced result.
A Headboard Without a New Bed
Want to do something special behind your bed? Create a visual headboard with just one horizontal moulding strip at approximately 120 cm height. Paint the space below it in a contrasting color and you instantly have a stylish wall. You can expand this further with one or more vertical strips to create a classic headboard shape. A simple intervention with great effect.
Playful Shapes in the Kids' Room
Arch shapes work particularly well in children's or baby rooms. An arch behind a crib or play corner creates a visual anchor point in the room. Fill the shape with fun wallpaper, chalkboard paint, or a mural. Flex Moulding Strips are ideal because you can bend them precisely along the wall, even if it isn't completely flat.
Furnishing Furniture with Decorative Details
Our Flex Moulding Strips aren't just suitable for walls, they can also be applied to furniture. Think of embellishing a cabinet, mirror, or drawer front. Because the strips are flexible, they easily adapt to rounded or uneven surfaces. Apply them with adhesive, paint them in your desired color, and give an old piece of furniture a new lease on life. This application is increasingly being used by customers who want to add a unique, personal touch to their interior in an accessible way.
Practical Tips from Our Experts
Use a baseboard saw with a protractor for neat corners. Draw or tape your design on the wall first before gluing so you can assess it calmly. And don't forget that you can paint our Flex Moulding Strips in any color you like. Tone-on-tone brings tranquility, contrast creates character.
Give Your Interior Character
Flexible moulding strips are more than just a practical solution. They offer endless possibilities to make a room more personal, playful, or truly elegant. With just a few simple adjustments, you turn your wall or furniture into a real statement piece. Get inspired and discover what you can create with Velida's moulding strips.
