Should you decorate with wallpaper?

If you’re decorating your home and trying to decide whether or not to use wallpaper, there are some pros and cons to consider. Even though it’s trendy right now, eventually your favorite design will go out of style. Here’s how to know if you should commit to wallpaper or play it safe.

Pros:

  • Can tie together a theme room and complement almost any interior design plan you have.
  • Wallpaper can be installed on a 24 hour timeline.
  • Easy to clean through vacuuming, wipes or wallpaper dough.
  • Wallpaper can be long lasting and durable.

Cons

  • Can be expensive to change.
  • Requires professional installation.
  • Could overpower a room if you’re not careful.
  • Could peel or be damaged by water or in high traffic areas.

Wallpaper is a bold decision and definitely something to weigh wisely. The trend can produce some absolutely stunning rooms that are comfortable and luxurious, but it does require more maintenance and cost to install.
