I LOVE Wallpaper

Looking through various magazines and websites, I must say I am really starting to LOVE wallpaper. It adds visual interest and texture to a wall. Also, there are so many ways you can use wallpaper i.e. as wall art, wall border, a mat in a picture frame, even a liner on kitchen cabinets and drawers. Check out a few of my favorite wallpaper designs from Graham and Brown:

This is by a London-based designer Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen. Look at the richness of this red. I love how it's paired with cream. Very elegant.


Here is my favorite black and white again! LOL! This is by Dutch designer Marcel Wanders. I've always been a fan of damask. I like the use of the white background on one wall and the black background on the adjacent wall and look how the red pops out!



Also a Marcel Wanders' design. I love the bold color.

Graham and Brown also offers eco-friendly wallpaper designs.

The wallpaper is 100% FSC and the patterns are printed using ink that contains no VOCs.


Here are a couple of my favorites from Osborne and Little. They are so exotic!




What creative ways have you used wallpaper??

I like wallpaper too, but was always afraid that it would look dated after a short period of time. I guess I am burden with old memories of my mom trying to remove old cheesy wallpaper put up by the previous owner.

It's definitely a style that I would like to begin thinking outside of the box about for my home. These images are pretty.

I so love wallpaper also! There is NO wallpaper in Marrakech. But I want some for a wall in my shop and so a reader kindly carried out the wallpaper for me and my Dad is carrying out a gallon of wallpaper paste (can you imagine?!)

CWT--It's funny because I grew up with wallpaper. It was covered on EVERY wall of our home. Some walls had red and white wallpaper while other walls had blue and white wallpaper—or was it black and white?? And to top it off--it was velvet! I was so traumatized by it. LOL!

I see these new styles lasting a while.

Maryam-- No wallpaper…WOW!! That was very kind of your reader and Dad. It sounds like you have a great support system!
