I wanted something a bit different. It will be in my bedroom.

Not very relaxing for a bedroom.

That's OK. Not a problem

@MandyMotherOfBrian

one of my bathrooms is original to my 1930's house and has a mint green square sink and mint green art deco bath, very much Overlook Room 237 - so far no ghostly, naked, old women have appeared in there so, it's all good

I am so, so, so envious that I will probably soon turn the colour of your bathroom. You have got my ultimate dream bathroom.

... oh yes, the actual point of the thread. The wallpaper is OK. If you're sure you're not going to get tired of it, go for it.

Definitely The Shining

I will only be looking at it 5 mins a day 😅

Right now it's very on-trend, but I think it will date very quickly.

I’m not a fan of wallpaper anyway, but that is utterly horrific, sorry. Ugly, ugly, ugly.

mrsbyers · 19/01/2024 18:52

Not a fan at all , way too busy

AuntyMabelandPippin · 19/01/2024 19:23

70s chic.

DappledThings · 19/01/2024 19:29

Also mid-40s and know Abigail's Party. We had it on VHS. "I like olives Laurence. Sue likes olives. Will you please get us some olives"

I like it, I like bold colours and prints. I'm allergic to neutrals!

Vettrianofan · 19/01/2024 19:30

I feel dizzy 😫

tuvamoodyson · 19/01/2024 19:31

This is why you didn’t need drugs in the ‘70’s

EmailAddress · 19/01/2024 19:33

Only thing that matters is if you like it, who cares what others thing. Go for it!

Hatty65 · 19/01/2024 19:33

I love it, but I'm a child of the 70s. Agree with a pp - it feels very George and Mildred. I'm old enough to feel nostalgic.

Shamefullhouse · 19/01/2024 19:54

I'm not even 100% about it. I just want something different.

Reminds me of the Enfield haunting series haha

declutteringmymind · 19/01/2024 19:57

I like it but that type of pattern can give me migraines if I stare at them too long.

EffieGraysDisappointingWeddingNight · 19/01/2024 19:58

Hate it. Would hate it even more if I woke up with a hangover and that was adorning my walls.

I feel like someone who wore a lot of Lucy and Yak clothing would go for that wallpaper.

Happygirl79 · 19/01/2024 19:59

It's very 70s. Probably a bit too busy for a bedroom though.

Longlive · 19/01/2024 19:59

I had something very similar in my kitchen in the 70's 🤣 never again.

Olika · 19/01/2024 20:00

I think I would get bored with it after some time.

DiegosMomHasGotItGoingOn · 19/01/2024 20:02

It’s not for me but if you like it then who am I to judge.

RubaiyatOfAnyone · 19/01/2024 20:11

In all honestly OP, i’m not sure you can square caring what opinion strangers might have of your wallpaper, with not knowing any of their fairly common cultural references they have for why they like or dislike it. If you don’t have any of the same film & TV experience just go with what YOU like.

I’m the same age as you and immediately thought Abigail’s Party too, which i quite admire, but now Outlook Hotel has been mentioned i cant unsee that!
