The blue and grey rose pattern - 1 wall only (behind the headboard) and all other walls plain white and minimalistic style.

Is it old fashioned looking or not in your view?

I’m not a fan of flowery or busy wallpaper at all usually but kinda like this one.

Difficult one, it’s not my taste but doesn’t mean it isn’t yours and won’t look lovely in your room!

Sorry, I think it's hideous but I don't like wallpapered feature walls generally. I don't think it's old fashioned because it's a modern style of paper. Anyway, it's your room and your house, so if you love it, do it.

Really really dreadful, but everybody has different taste.

I really like it Smile

It's not my taste and I think it will really limit what you can do with the room.
I know feature walls were really popular a few years back and I did it too but I'm sticking to plain walls now so I have more choice in styling the room.

I really don’t like it, but I don’t think it’s old fashioned. I think lots of other people would like it.

It's a bit footballers' wives.

It’s not old fashioned, but it’s not to my taste, which is old fashioned - I don’t like feature walls. I did a whole bedroom in a vintage Laura Ashley sprig pattern wallpaper I found on eBay. I thought it was beautiful, but it was very dated to some people’s eyes.

My friend used to have it this in her room. Think it’s sort of an old trend. We commented on how our other friend still has it....sort of like the grey trend but my friend had this years ago.

Dislike.

I usually like florals.

FredaFox · 11/07/2020 18:31

It’s a bit chavvy and dated, I picture crushed velvet sofas with it -Not my taste but popular I guess.
If you like it who are we to judge 😊

BuffaloCauliflower · 11/07/2020 18:32

Sorry to sound like a snob but I think it’s a bit chavvy, and I like statement wallpaper

LittleBearPad · 11/07/2020 18:33

I wouldn’t.

Crosswithlifeatm · 11/07/2020 18:33

If it's easy to paint over go for it.
Also it's your bedroom so if you like it,go for it.

WitsEnding · 11/07/2020 18:35

I have feature walls in a couple of rooms, including my bedroom, because the house came like that and cba to decorate.

It wouldn’t be my choice of wallpaper, but my colour scheme is similar and it doesn’t grate - also doesn’t overly dictate my choice of bed linen.

SoupDragon · 11/07/2020 18:40

I really don't like it. There was something unnerving it it when I looked at the closeup on the website - something to do with the almost real look but giant sized.

InFiveMins · 11/07/2020 18:41

Lovely. You like it - so go for it!

Rainycloudyday · 11/07/2020 18:42

Sorry but being honest I think that’s awful, truly hideous. But it shouldn’t matter what anyone else thinks if it’s for your home! You’d probably hate my house!

bluefoxmug · 11/07/2020 18:44

sorry
not to my taste.
it's a bit like the lining paper my gran had in her drawers.

rwalker · 11/07/2020 18:45

Every bodies taste is different it's £12 a roll so if you can paper yourself what are you talking £36 not the end of the world to change it in a few months

TimeWastingButFun · 11/07/2020 18:46

Nope!

Gatekeeper · 11/07/2020 18:47

Not keen at all- I don't think it old fashioned at all but it seems to feature heavily in a facebook forum along with crushed velvet and glittery stuff. It just looks cold and hard and in your face to me

AnnaSW1 · 11/07/2020 18:48

I think it looks very old fashioned but perhaps that's the style you're looking for? If you love it then get it. If it's for your bedroom then I'd guess not that many people will see it!
