Match your wall art to your Airbnb color scheme

Finding matching artwork for your Airbnb doesn’t have to be a struggle

You finally have your Airbnb furnished and now have to go through the painful process of trying to find matching artwork. But what if there was an easier way. Instead of finding matching wall art, what if you could create artwork that perfectly matches the style of your Airbnb. Well now you can, and we’ll show you how in this guide.

How can you get custom matching wall art for your Airbnb

Using a site like Etsy, you’re going to want to find wall art that is digital that you print on your own. Look for sellers that offer custom Canva wall art templates. The reason that sellers create templates in Canva is primarily to allow buyers to customize the file to match their own style. The Canva template is really just a starting base that you can modify. Typically Canva templates allow you to change things like messages, fonts, images, and colors. In this case, you’re going to want to find a template that has vector artwork that allows for editable colors.

Find the matching color palette for your wall art

Once you find a Canva wall art template that has editable colors, the process for changing the artwork color is really easy. First you’re going to want to identify the number of colors that can be edited in the artwork. Let’s say for example that the artwork has three editable colors: one color for the font and two colors for the artwork. You’ll then want to find three colors from your Airbnb color palette. For Canva you will need the hexadecimal or hex color value. If you don’t know the hex value for your colors, you can do a Google search for “hex value finder” and you will find online tools that will allow you to upload a photo to identify the hex color value codes.

Applying your color palette to your custom wall art

Once you have the hex value codes, it’s time to edit your wall art. In Canva, select the element that you want to edit the color. Once the item is selected, you will see a color swatch or multiple swatches appear in the top left of the tool bar. If you’re editing a font color, the swatch will be in the font toolbar in the text color icon. Click on the swatch and a color picker menu will appear. Click on the + sign located under document colors and add the hex color value. Repeat this for the other colors.

Examples of how you can use custom color matching wall art

Match wall art to your design color scheme

The simplest way to use custom color matching wall art is to do a direct match of your color scheme. Here you simply apply colors that best match your Airbnb or home style.

Contrast your wall art to your color scheme

Instead of matching, you can also use contrasting colors to really have your wall art stand out. For example, if you have darker walls you will want to pick a lighter color to use as the predominant color for your wall art. This will add nice contrast between the artwork and your home.

Create pop art wall art to match your Airbnb

If you’re familiar with the pop art movement, you’ve likely seen arrangements of the same artwork done in different colors. Often bright and playful colors are used for this. Andy Warhol is one of the most famous artists from this movement. For this approach you’ll want to select a piece of art and apply four different sets of colors that match your home. Although, it doesn’t necessarily have to match if you’re going for a bolder statement.

Where you find wall art to match your Airbnb

As we mentioned in the beginning, Etsy is one of the best places to find customizable wall art that you can color match to your Airbnb or home. Just remember to look for digital wall art templates that are created in Canva since they are the easiest to customize. Depending on the size of the artwork, you can either print them at home or take them to a professional printer to have printed.
