Wonder Wall

As I gaze at our basement wall, I feel a unexplicable urge to change it. It's currently painted a brown-ish color, along with the other walls. I want to do something different. Some kind of installation. Here are some of my favorite ideas. (p.s. I am sorry in advance for getting this song in your head, but I am currently humming Wonderwall by Oasis).

To be honest, I don't think I could really do this one in my home. However, I think it's really pretty and lovely...and if I was a bit more "girly" I would do it!

This idea is so smart!
You could pick up lots of books at Goodwill and/or Garage Sales and then just go to town.

I think any one of these ideas is genius and would give our basement that spark that is missing.
Any one of these ideas would also be a lot of work. Which do you guys like best?

I love the built in shelf with the reclaimed wood and the rope wall - since that is so unique!!
