A Bold Move: Four Walls of Wallpaper

Wallpapering an entire room is daring & bold — it’s both painstakingly permanent (at least the application process feels that way…) and uber trendy (will I really love this pattern in 5 years?). But if you’re up for the challenge, the results can be marvelous.

It’s important to try new themes out on an old room. Even if you’re after the new, and you want to just get the project finished, get the home insurance sorted and start enjoying the house, careful planning can benefit you in the long run. Through doing so, you’ll end up with a new, bold look for the room, and the experience will teach you loads about decorating regardless of how enamored you are with the result.

Here are six fantastic living room examples from House to Home that offer casual {and very livable} wallpaper patterns on all four walls of a living room. I have a feeling these won’t be going out of style anytime soon…

Make a bold move in one of your rooms — this could be a great solution for a reading room or family den that really needs a ‘pop’. Wallpaper can also make an excellent accent on a single wall, in a small recessed cubby space (think window seat or alcove) or on a wall overhang (where your tv might be mounted or your fireplace juts out).
