It's the first one I've seen that I've really liked but I'm not sure about it! Is it too "nursery" for a living room? It'd just be on one wall with the rest painted.

It doesn't scream 'nursery' at me.

justcantgetenough · 27/09/2023 00:41

I wouldn't say it was nursery but wintery and not sure I'd want to look at that all year round but that's me, if you like it go for it

I clicked the link without reading your full post and my first thought was 'oh I like that for a babies room'

I think it's adorable. If you can keep the rest of the room minimalist and "Skandi Chic" I think it would be fine

Princessfluffy · 27/09/2023 01:33

Very cute but also very wintery.

BOOTS52PollyPrissyPants · 27/09/2023 01:51

I think it is lovely and will look great and be different. Can you do the wallpapering yourself. My mum was great and did it all in our house but I would not even attempt it.

greenspaces4peace · 27/09/2023 02:36

i love it!

MissCherryCakeyBun · 27/09/2023 03:18

We loved it too and got a sample it's very pretty in real life too

moose62 · 27/09/2023 06:34

Very cute...but I think only suitable for a child's room.

Pressthespacebar · 27/09/2023 07:05

It’s definitely for a babies room. It’s very wintery too, but I suppose it is cold and rainy 9 months of the year here anyway!

SpringIntoChaos · 27/09/2023 07:12

To me it does look nursery/child's room.

I love it, but definitely wouldn't want to be looking at a wintery woodland animal scene whilst watching the TV and sipping a gin in the middle of June!

margotrose · 27/09/2023 07:14

It's pretty but it screams nursery/winter baby to me. I wouldn't want it in a living room in the middle of summer.

kezzyleah · 27/09/2023 07:24

It's very lovely and cute for a nursery. I don't think it would work in a living room.

Maireas · 27/09/2023 07:38

It's sweet. If you want it, go for it. However, that fashion for only doing one wall never looks right to me - have wallpaper on all walls or none, or it doesn't look balanced. If you think it's too much, for the whole room, maybe choose another wallpaper.
I'd say go for it, though!

OneFrenchEgg · 27/09/2023 07:42

I think the small pictures might be annoying after a while. It does look like nursery paper but anything works if you do it anyway.

oreo2020 · 27/09/2023 07:43

Too nursery I'd say ...

OnAFrolicOfMyOwn · 27/09/2023 07:44

I like it - my only thought would be that the feel is autumnal/wintery with the browns and almost bare trees, so it might not work as well in summer/spring.

ThisIsMyHappyFacee · 27/09/2023 07:45

I have a woodland theme in my living room and I love it!

BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz · 27/09/2023 07:46

It's pretty but I think it might look like you've wallpapered with Christmas gift wrap.

cheeseandsaladcreamtoastie · 27/09/2023 07:49

I love it. It's so very English countryside, which is a passion of mine. Go for it!

SuperfluousToRequirements · 27/09/2023 07:49

I think it looks too wintery/cold and more like wrapping paper too, but if you like it just get it.

Ýsette · 27/09/2023 07:51

Nursery chic

Roystonv · 27/09/2023 07:52

I love that sort of look but this is cold and more suited to a nursery.

WhatWillEyeCallMyself · 27/09/2023 07:54

It's lovely, but definitely not sitting room for me.

Roselilly36 · 27/09/2023 08:00

I think it is lovely, like I do a lot of wallpapers, but I definitely wouldn’t have it in my lounge tbh. Looks very seasonal, wallpaper hanging takes such a long time, not something most people would want to change seasonally.
