Editor's Notes
October 03, 2019:
If you’re partial to papered walls (or furniture or drawers), you may be wondering just where these convenient peel and stick wallpapers have been all of your life. You’ll likely spend less than half the time and effort to install them (and later remove them) that you would with traditional wallpapers. They come in an array of designs, ranging from three-dimensional to flowery selections to those that give off an old-fashioned parlor feel. Our selection has all of these and more.
Joining the list in today’s update is the RoomMates Bohemian, which features large, kaleidoscopic shapes in a striking combination of oranges and blues. It will look great not just for covering walls, but also for spots like the faces of a set of drawers, doors on a TV cabinet, or even the insides of picture frames. It also comes with a set of decorating ideas, which may come in handy if you have any left over from your main project.
Retaining its top spot is another selection from RoomMates – the Blue Distressed, which can add a relaxed, coastal feel to any space from your beach house to your city apartment. It’s easy to apply and looks good running either vertically or horizontally.
