In a viral TikTok videoluxury home brand Rowen demonstrated the do-it-yourself technique for their followers.

They described the upgrade as “the simplest and easiest arch panel hack.”

The decor experts revealed the budget purchase they used to shape the arch panels.

“We used foam pipe insulation to easily create this look,” they explained.

You can pick up Essentials Economy pipe insulation for just 94p from ScrewFix.

They carefully sawed the end of the insulation pipe at an angle.

The professionals measured and leveled the pipe before attaching it to the wall.

After dividing the three DIY curved frames evenly, they started painting them.

Rowen then showed viewers the finished look, which they decorated with a matching white sofa, rug and pampas.

They also added some interior accents, including a diffuser, white textured blanket, and white pillows.
