Removable wallpaper is a fun and affordable decorative finish to experiment with colour and bring small spaces to life in your home.
Rather than a long-term decorating solution, the very nature of its easy application allows for plenty of fun and experimentation with colour and pattern. Dress up small spaces with the latest new season prints – a little goes a long way!
1. Bookshelf backing
One roll of removable wallpaper can cover a whole bookshelf or alcove and the best part is, when you tire of the design, simply replace or repaint it!
2. Ceiling feature
Want to stare at your favourite new design every morning when you wake up? A statement with your choice of texture, colour and pattern is the way to go for your bedroom ceiling. Choose a subtle pattern for a textured effect or go all out with showstopping colour. Easier to hang than conventional wallpaper, you’ll find removable version more forgiving to negotiate coverage of tricky places such as this.
3. Lampshade
Adding a floor lamp to a room provides task lighting and a decorative flourish. It’s also a great opportunity to punctuate a colour scheme with a clever pattern or dramatic detail. Be brave and choose a bold statement that will refect the tones or colours of other pieces in the room, but don’t be afraid of a little tongue in cheek.
4. Easy artworks
This is a perfect solution for samples of fabric or wallpaper but particularly fun for adhesive wallpaper or shaped decals. Turn them into artworks in their own right with conventional frames or quirky treatments such as these embroidery hoops.
5. Moodboard
Perfect for a rented home, removable wallpaper can make a space come to life and the workspace is just the place to inject an inspirational boost of colour and pattern.
