How to Decorate Concrete Block Walls in a House

Apply a layer of concrete primer to the block walls. Allow it to dry and paint the walls any color that goes with the room’s accessories and furniture. Keep the walls a solid color or paint a mural that spans across the walls. Paint a border around the top section of the wall in a different color than the main paint color.

Cover the concrete block walls with vinyl wall clings, which you can peel off and move around as desired. Pick kid-friendly clings in a playroom or child’s bedroom. Cover the entire wall in a collage of wall clings or place them at strategic locations throughout.

Use paper objects and pictures to decorate the concrete block walls with decoupage. Glue the paper directly to the concrete surface and cover them with a clear sealant.

Measure the length and width of the concrete wall. Install a wire that spans the wall, just below the ceiling. Attach curtains or a large piece of fabric to the wire to create a wall covering. Change the fabric every so often for new decorative appeal.

Install different material directly to the surfaces of the concrete block walls. Cover them with tile and make a colorful mosaic work of art. Attach faux stone panels to the wall for a nature vibe or wood paneling with borders for a sophisticated lounge look.
