Wallpaper Guide for Beginners

by Chameleon Collection Online Wallpaper Store

Once less known, wallpapering today has turned out to be increasingly common for the everyday homeowner. However, if you are new to the wallpaper world, you probably need a few tips to get started.

Wallpaper to Match Room Style:

First, take into account the style of your room that you are decorating:

If it is romantic, check out delicate damasks & florals with fine lines in soft, pastel colours.

If it is casual, faux finishes like beadboard & stucco are your best bet. Pairing beadboard wallpaper with flowing floral designs also makes for an at-home, calm feel.

If it is contemporary/fashion forward, consider bold geometrics with high gloss & metallic accents. Also, large-scale & bold florals make a high-fashion statement.

If it is traditional, check out vintage wallpapers with intricate damasks & stripes, which synchronise with conventional furnishings & décor.

How you’ll use wallpaper in the room:

After considering the style of your room that you’re decorating, then figure out how you plan to use the wallpaper in the room. All styles don’t work in the same way. Here are your different options:

Cover all four walls: A simple, classic stripe design hung straight on all four walls offer a fresh, modern look. Large-scale & simple designs won’t overpower a room but infuse a new makeover.

Feature one wall: Pick a bold pattern to accentuate an area of a room, such as behind a bed or a sofa. Designs with a hint of metallic, or mica will offer a classy, glam touch.

Wallpaper with a chair rail: If you’re working with a chair rail that separates a wall, it’s simple to bring unique attention to it. To get a classic look, check out paintable beadboard wallpapers for under the chair rail.

Ignore small patterns:

Are you wallpapering for the first ever time? If yes, then try to avoid tiny patterns with offset matches.

Flat vs textured patterns:

Selecting a textured or flat design is all about individual style preference. Usually, textured patterns offer a more casual look whereas flat designs can make your wall more refined.
