Wallpaper! Yes you heard us right, we want to talk wallpaper! The thought of this might either be daunting, or give you those visions of the messy, disaster of a job you were roped into with your mom years ago.

We can relate, but we are also here to point you in the direction of success instead of becoming overwhelmed.

Number Two – Spacing.
How large is the space you are wanting to paper? We suggest papering one wall instead of all of them. This will save you money and time, as well as provide a very nice focal point in the room.
If your space is quite small, stick with lighter more airy designs as large prints can make a room feel smaller. If your have larger space to work with, go for it! Take advantage of that extra square footage and go bold!
Number Three – Be Child specific!
