Every room in your house or apartment can look like it came from another world. There’s no reason why science fiction and fantasy fans can’t enjoy their dreams in the comfort of their own homes. And the good news is you don’t have to make everything yourself. Children and adults alike should be able to find many ways to enhance their home life without spending a fortune.
We’ve found a few deals that look really nice. We hope you’ll agree with us. (NOTE: All links open in new tabs.)
Fantasy Walls and Windows
If you can only do one thing to make a room seem more magical or other-worldly, I’d say it would be to hang a tapestry, window curtain, or wall art. Here are several examples of each.
Made by WALL26, their description of the artwork reads: “Canvas art is a staple of modern living by any standard, and wall26 is your one-stop shop for any print you desire. Our high-quality canvases material is a fancy mixture of quality cotton and polyester, specially created for a long-lasting display of artworks. The canvas itself is a white semi-gloss artist canvas and when paired with our HP Latex inks, our products are fade resistant for up to 100 years. Once printed, the canvas is hand-stretched on formaldehyde-free MDF stretcher frames for a lightweight and warp resistant finish all made-on-demand in the USA.”
Each panel is 36 inches by 28 inches by 9.2 inches. The panels weigh just under 10 pounds each. You must provide your own hooks for the frames to hang the artwork but customers say this is easy to do. If the image looks dark, consider installing a soft LED light either behind the panels or above them to bring out the colors.
People who live in warm climates hang dark curtains to block the sunlight. If you’re going to do that then why not hang something beautiful and fantasic?

Some customers report using these drapes as a wall hanging (like a tapestry) but they are fully functional drapes that you normally hang on a curtain rod.
Customers also say that enough sunlight passes through the drapes to ensure rooms are not dark during the day, but privacy is maintained. Your needs and satisfaction in natural lighting may differ from theirs.
Some customers say the silky material is less pliable than they expected. They are machine washable and some customers say they washed the curtains immediately after unpacking to eliminate a mild chemical odor resulting from the manufacturing process.

The package is 12 inches by 8.5 inches by 1.9 inches and weighs less than 2 pounds.
Customers report that the material is durable and relaxes after unpacking, so you should not need to worry about unsightly creases and wrinkles. The silky smooth material may slide a little too easily, so it may help to attach corners to legs or find a non-damaging 2-sided tape. Placing a heavy centerpiece on the table may help.

Some customers report the pictures on the Website may not accurately represent the actual printed colors. This does not appear to be an intentional discrepancy. Our belief is either the photography lighting was not set properly or the manufacturing process may have been misconfigured for their orders. We are not aware of any significant customer complaints.

Wrapping Up …
This article could easily go on for many more thousand words but we wanted to highlight the very best, family-friendly options. You’ll find a lot of furnishings and dressings for young children’s bedrooms. But what is available for adults and families of all ages? That’s what we wanted to know.
Our team was very pleased to find a variety of options including furnishing styles, vendors, and patterns. My own personal selections tend toward darker, spacier designs but you’ll find some incredible landscape designs in the mix. I did my best to reflect that.
Small businesses may also want to look for avant-garde fantasy and science fiction decor. The modern office has adopted a bland, industrial look and it’s not very welcoming. Open space designs make work environments even more unpleasant. At least with a few colorful rugs and some nice low budget wall art your company can look stylish, interesting, and inviting to customers and prospective employees.
