As you choose wallpaper for your home, consider not only the patterns you love but also where the wallpaper will be hung. Moisture-resistance is a consideration in wet spaces like bathrooms and kitchens. Choosing the right wallpaper material is important, too. Delicate fabric wallpapers work well in low-traffic spaces like bedrooms, while more durable vinyl wallpaper is easy to wipe down, making it a great choice for hallways and kids’ spaces.
Bathroom wallpaper: These small spaces can benefit from both small, all-over prints like flowers and vines as well as large-scale murals and designs. To withstand moisture, humidity, and heat, look for a wallpaper that’s splash-proof and easily wipeable like vinyl.
Kitchen wallpaper: In areas of the kitchen that are prone to grease or splatters, like near the stove, peel-and-stick wallpaper can be a great alternative to traditional tile backsplashes. You also have the option to easily remove and replace it if necessary.
Kids wallpaper: As you choose wallpaper for your kids’ rooms, look for a design that can grow with them through the years. Adding a wallpaper mural to a single wall can double as a headboard.
