Hello friends! I hope you had a fun and relaxing weekend!
I’ve used wallpaper quite a bit in our newish home and have loved it! Wallpaper has made a comeback in a BIG way, and I am here for it. 🙂
I’ve used four different wallpaper designs and don’t regret installing them for one minute! With traditional glued wallpaper, you need to be pretty set on the design and make sure you love it, like the blue floral wallpaper I used in our little hallway:
I had loved that one for so long and found it for much cheaper (it’s sold at Anthropologie 😬 and is NOT cheap there) so finally went for it. That little hallway is one of my favorite spots in our home!
I found the glue method pretty easy to install, but the peel and stick wallpapers that are big right now aren’t hard either. They are a lot like contact paper and I’ve used them in a few spots in our home.
My most recent project with it is this
peel and stick gray grasscloth looking stuff I hung in our master (I STILL need to paint the trim and lower walls!):

The peel and stick is supposed to be easy to remove — and shouldn’t harm your walls in the process. I haven’t had to remove it so I don’t have any first hand experience with that. I’ve heard from some that it comes of clean but a couple people have mentioned it pulled paint.
We’ll see when the time comes! But because I’ve had such great luck with these peel and sticks, I decided to share some of my (mostly very affordable) favorites I’ve found online. There are SO MANY pretty and fun options out there right now!
First up — Target! They have a crazy good selection! I found my powder room wallpaper there (they usually have a good amount of options in the store).
I love this take on the birch tree wallpaper that is so popular right now. This one is much more subdued and pretty (links to each one are under the photos):
I love this one SO much — it’s a beautiful floral pattern that reminds me of my office wallpaper. I love the colors, the design…I may need to find a spot for this one:
This is similar to the grasscloth wallpaper in our master, but in the more natural color. If it’s like mine, it will have a very slight texture but it’s not rough like real grasscloth:
This gold polka dot wallpaper is SO fun! I’d love to use this in a little spot like a closet:
The next couple are so cool — they look like tile. They’d be such an inexpensive way to update a kitchen backsplash! I wonder if this penny tile version is raised like the real stuff?:
This one is a beautiful Carrara basketweave design that would look great in a bathroom!:
Now let’s check out the options at Walmart! This floral watercolor design was a favorite — how great would this look against white board and batten?:
This silver circular design is a more modern option that would look lovely with black accents:
This pretty blue and peach floral wallpaper would be perfect in a nursery! Or how great in a mud or laundry room (hmmmm…):
If you’re a fan of farmhouse design, this gray gingham wallpaper would be perfect for you! Again, I see it against a crisp white wall or trim:
I really dig this traditional linen wallpaper — it comes in a ton of colors! This is one is a classic that would look great in any space:
And finally, some of my favorites from Wayfair!
This gold starburst design comes in three different colors and I LOVE it. This post is dangerous. I want to add more and MORE:
This brick design would work in a more modern space, but would also look great with farmhouse accents. I think it would be great as a kitchen or bar backsplash too:
Don’t want to install shiplap on your walls? This rustic shiplap wallpaper looks like the real thing! A friend of mine tried to hang a regular shiplap wallpaper and said it was impossible to match up the lines perfectly. This looks like it might be a bit easier?:
This tweed wallpaper is another favorite — it leans a little more masculine which I really like. How great would this be in a media room or office? It comes in a few different colors:
What do you think of my picks? Would you use any of these in your home? Have you tried wallpaper in your house or are you still scarred from childhood experiences with it? 😉 If it truly does come off clean it would be a GREAT option for renters too!
If you’re waffling I say go for it — especially this sticky stuff! I don’t find it hard to install (I actually kind of enjoy it — I’m weird) and it gives so much character to a space!
