The wallpaper craze started quite a few years ago and even though some people may have thought it wouldn’t last, wallpaper is here to stay and it’s bolder than ever.
If you are one of those people who has spent countless hours stripping your walls of old wallpaper, pulling off pieces in those terribly tiny increments, I’m here to reassure you that the new wallpaper is easier to install and painless to remove.
Still feeling hesitant? Try using wallpaper in small quantities. A dark and moody print behind a headboard adds some extra drama to your space.
A powder room is a great space to do something bold and exciting!
A small print in an entryway is a great way to leave a lasting first impression.
Searching for something fun to add to your laundry room? Try wallpaper for an extra touch of whimsy! Studies have shown it makes laundry day more fun. Okay, I made that up but it could be legit?
If you’re still not wanting to commit, companies like Urban Walls create removable wall decals that look like the real thing.
There are so many options out there, so whether your style is traditional, contemporary, modern, boho-eclectic or even minimalistic, there is a wallpaper for everyone.
