Cheap Trick

Like the look of bold-patterned wallpapers but afraid to try them in your own home? Check out this great idea in Hip Hollywood Homes. The Los Angeles home of publicist Lara Shriftman, decorated by architect Tim Andreas, features a small segment of bold wallpaper placed as the focal point in the room. This trick requires little long-term commitment and can immediately transform a blah room! The best part is that this can easily be done with one roll, (with plenty to spare!) meaning you can go for a gorgeous designer paper and use the rest to line drawers, frame, wrap gifts, etc!

Below are some of my favorite bold-patterned papers from Walnut Wallpaper. Walnut is one of the first websites to bring 'to-the-trade-only' papers to non-designers! (Translation: you can get your favorite Cole and Son wallpaper without hiring a decorator!) The best way to view the papers online is to search by designer- for some reason that's the only way to see them all.
