For context it is only on a tiny bit of wall in my extension to two bedrooms. I love how it looks but imagine it's not everyone's up of tea.

Love

What's to hat? Anything is better than magnolia paint IMO!

user1471518295 · 31/10/2021 19:21

I think it is amazing

Grasshopper90 · 31/10/2021 19:22

Love it

@TheChiefJo that's gorgeous! I don't have wallpaper as I have a notoriously short attention span and get bored very quickly, hence why my house is entirely white. But I really enjoy seeing other people's choices.

I like it, I like floral things. But It would not be suitable for my place. as I live in a small old cottage, and it would kind of crowd out my little rooms, and make my rooms look smaller still. I tend to have plainer walls, to make things look more open, and just have a bit of art work here and there.

But I once came across a full roll of wrapped wallpaper in a charity shop, and it was floral with beautiful colours , and had a few tiny little birds on, like an oriental painting. So bought it cheap. and cut to size, I made a couple of pictures for the wall , and framed them.. I wrapped a couple of presents up with some of the paper, and then used some to line some bedroom drawers.. The wallpaper was a top brand, and cost me 50 pence in the charity shop.

Hat. Would be better as a table cloth

TractorAndHeadphones · 31/10/2021 19:23

If it's a small space/feature wall would look great!

labazslovesliving · 31/10/2021 19:24

feature wall yes and good price

I actually really like it, and if I were using myself would go all in bold and dramatic and match the adjacent walls to the dark blue background.

The colours remind me of Joules a little :)

DentalWorries · 31/10/2021 19:24

I quite like it for the wall with the sink and mirror in the downstairs toilet. Something totally not expected.

A580Hojas · 31/10/2021 19:25

I couldn't live with it but if you love it op then that's perfect.

HikingforScenery · 31/10/2021 19:25

Love that!

A580Hojas · 31/10/2021 19:25

I'm not a fan of the feature wall.

KateTheEighth · 31/10/2021 19:26

Really don't like it

But I also loathe "feature walls"

If we were all the same the world would be a v boring place

TimeForTeaAndG · 31/10/2021 19:26

My friends have a very similar paper in their living room with deep Matt blue walls and it's beautiful.

TheMooch · 31/10/2021 19:26

Thought I might hat it but looking closely at the colours I rather love it.

MountainAshley · 31/10/2021 19:27

I love it.

pumpkinpie01 · 31/10/2021 19:29

My sister has something similar on one wall in her lounge it looks really nice

MuchTooTired · 31/10/2021 19:31

I love it

Bellyups · 31/10/2021 19:33

I love it, and I’m usually a minimalist Smile

TheChiefJo · 31/10/2021 19:34

@StrychnineInTheSandwiches

Hat

But at least it's not that lemur paper that I seem to see all over the place these days.

🤣🤣 That'll be my dining room!
Amymamabear89 · 31/10/2021 19:35

As a feature wall, yes I think it would
Look lovely as long as the other walls aren’t to…’busy’? I like it!
