For those looking for a more dynamic wall treatment than just paint, wallpaper is a bold way to add interest to ordinary walls. There is any number of colors and patterns you can choose from to coordinate with just about any chosen design scheme. It is also easy to find wallpaper that will fit within your budget, especially if you only choose to paper accent walls or features. Wallpaper is also relatively easy to apply and maintain. - Wallpaper does not have to consist of flat images glued to a wall. In fact, wallpaper can take on a dimension that an ordinary can of paint cannot. Textured wallpapers can be purchased in many different styles and shapes. Some wallpaper sheets are thick with raised prints, closely resembling woven fabrics or even mimicking wood grain. Other wallpapers can have a more transparent quality, adding a subtle depth to a room's decor.
- The different patterns of wallpaper you can choose from are seemingly endless. Regardless of your desired style, you are sure to find a wallpaper print that will fit in your design scheme. For example, if you prefer a more traditional motif, stripes, toile and plaid papers can become dramatic coverings for any room in your home. If you are looking for a way to add focus to an accent wall, bold patterns such as damask prints can cozy up larger spaces. Still other options for wallpaper prints are more contemporary and graphic with repeated images.
- Border papers are a form of wallpaper that can be used to accent walls, but not dominate an entire wall covering. For example, you can use border paper to mimic the effect of crown molding or baseboards. Border papers can be hung up to frame windows or along chair railing or wainscoting. Border paper can be used to complement other wallpaper prints or alone to add interest to paint or faux treatments.
