A few quick opinions needed... will be buying today! It's for a spare, single bedroom, fun and modern vibe (hopefully!) Thanks.

The first one

Toddlerteaplease · 21/11/2022 11:13

Oo I like them both but think the second one is easier on the eye.

Freeasabird76 · 21/11/2022 11:15

First

Snipples · 21/11/2022 11:19

I prefer the second. Kinda reminds me of an orla kiely type print.

Careylisa · 21/11/2022 11:19

Second. The first one gives me more of a kitchen/diner vibe

IglesiasPiggl · 21/11/2022 11:20

Definitely the grey one, unless you're going for the full on 70s vibe.

Lycanthropology · 21/11/2022 11:20

Ooh, 50/50 so far... I preferred 2, but made the mistake of asking DH and DD who both prefer 1, so now I'm not sure!

Reminds me of what we found under our wallpaper and carpet in the 80's (from the 70s).

I prefer the first one.

BobbyBobbyBobby · 21/11/2022 11:21

Second one is preferable to the first one but both look like they will date quickly.

SirSidneyRuffDiamond · 21/11/2022 11:21

The second one

smooththecat · 21/11/2022 11:22

I think the larger pattern wil make a small room feel less cramped.

picklemewalnuts · 21/11/2022 11:22

I like the first! And I usually don't like grey!

VenusClapTrap · 21/11/2022 11:22

Second one. First one makes my eyes go funny.

Lycanthropology · 21/11/2022 11:22

Yep, 70s vibe is fine... I have a 70s house!

I was hoping there'd be a clear "winner"!

ISaidDontLickTheBin · 21/11/2022 11:28

Second one for a bedroom, definitely.

Occitane · 21/11/2022 11:30

Second one.

Lycanthropology · 21/11/2022 11:36

Hmm, second is edging ahead, but by no means super decisively. I should have thrown in a wildcard third one!

Interesting someone has said "for a bedroom"... I guess a busy pattern may not be restful?

Both are too busy for a bedroom, but the slightly less busy one is the first one so I guess that would be it. I think there are better options though if you do want a 70's vibe as these feels more late 80s early 90's than 70's to me.

EmmaC78 · 21/11/2022 11:38

I like both with a slight preference for the second.

This strange... surely the 1st one is MORE busy?
The 1st one being the one with the chair.

The bigger pattern and more white background makes the first one with the grey feel slightly calmer for me. But neither of them comes across as a cosy bedroom type of wallpaper.

Lycanthropology · 21/11/2022 11:42

Ah, I see @Snoken , thank you.

Thanks everyone for your opinions 🙂

Yellow

stopringingme · 21/11/2022 11:44

Second one

Bestcatmum · 21/11/2022 11:45

Second one, the first is too grey.
