Bold wallpapers
It seems that wallpaper has been around forever, but most of
us hear the word and think of our grandmothers home. Well think again, because
wallpaper is the latest interior design trend and it’s a great and fast way to
update that boring room of yours.
When it comes to wallpaper, especially those really bold prints;
you need to remember some design tips. While wallpaper is a great new trend I
believe it works best in doses, so here are three guidelines you can follow.
Use it as an accent.
By using the wallpaper as an accent (on only one wall) you
avoid pattern clash or overwhelming yourself to the point where you get sick of
it. Try using it with painted walls or
even a simple pattern painted wall.
Use it in a frame
How about using it in picture frames? Not only is this a
genius way to make inexpensive art work, it also gives you the opportunity to
use multiple patterns without overdoing it.
Try it on your ceiling.
How awesome is this? Use the wallpaper on your ceiling for a
really chic look. A tip for ceiling
wallpaper; keep your walls white and accent with pillows, draperies and
furniture.
For any of you on the fence about wallpaper, I hope this
helps you out a little. Of course if you’re really comfortable with your design
skills, or if you love that bold look, go all out and put wallpaper everywhere!
