\u201cYou live most of your life inside of your phone. Make sure it\u2019s a nice place to be.\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\n

While there are many different pre-made wallpaper designs you can use, it\u2019s way more exciting to <\/span>make your own wallpaper for your phone<\/span>. You look at it multiple times a day, every day, so it should represent you to the max. Picsart\u2019s vast selection of editing tools, free-to-edit images, beautiful templates, and stickers makes it so easy to challenge conventional ready-made wallpapers and realize your very own <\/span>wallpaper ideas for your phone<\/span>. Simply choose a theme or mood, and start experimenting with color and forms to create your <\/span>custom iPhone wallpaper<\/span>. With the release of iOS14, you can take this a step further and <\/span>customize your home screen and widgets<\/span><\/a>!<\/span><\/p>\n

With options to customize both your home screen and your lock screen, you can design as many wallpapers as you like. Change them according to your favorite aesthetic, life events, or with every change of season. If you\u2019re decorating your home, why not decorate your phone, too?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Do thoughts of an espresso cup and croissant come to mind when dreaming up the perfect weekend? Select your favorite photo of<\/span> Caf\u00e9 de Flore from your last trip to Paris, add a black cat graffiti background, a dazzling bouquet of hydrangeas by Eric Chauvin, a \u201cPadam, Padam\u201d quote by Piaf, and a romantic Parisian rooftop. Voila! You\u2019re basically in Paris every time you pick up your phone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tired of the urban landscape? Combine images of turquoise waters, countryside cottage florals, or the silent majesty of the Swiss Alps. So many possibilities, so many creative choices to make! You can travel in time and <\/span>make your own <\/span>Renaissance-style arabesque <\/span>wallpaper for your phone <\/span>by intertwining figures, vines, ribbons, flowers, and <\/span>Canvas effects<\/span><\/a> in a unique rhythmic pattern. Do you want a break from images and words? Pick up a virtual brush and create a minimalistic wallpaper, inspired by Klein blue or in the spirit of Malevich\u2019s White on White. Is Thanksgiving your favorite holiday? Why not design your very own Thanksgiving-inspired wallpaper<\/a>?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You see where we\u2019re going here. <\/span>Custom iPhone wallpapers <\/span>just<\/span> have so many advantages over the pre-made options. Here are just a few:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    If you\u2019re feeling more 1810 than 2010, get phone wallpaper ideas from the great masters in museums. Check out the collages created by the great film director and artist Sergei Parajanov. He defined collage as \u201ccompressed film\u201d and created stunning compositions by mixing pieces of newspaper, photographs, dolls, fabric, glass, shells, stones, and other objects. Take a look at Picasso\u2019s \u201cBottle of Vieux Marc, Glass, Guitar and Newspaper\u201d where he combined newspaper with forms of a guitar, glass, and bottle of wine that’s cut from colored paper.<\/span><\/p>\n
