Wallpaper Wonders:
One of the trendiest ways to use wallpaper is as a feature wall.
You may not want a whole room decorated with one of these vivid new designer wallpapers, but as a feature wall it can make a stunning focal point as well as being a sure fire way to save yourself the time and the expense of wallpapering the entire room.
For example, in a master bedroom an obvious choice is the wall behind the bed. In the dining room, the wall behind the server is an excellent option.

Variety is the Spice:
Using multiple wallpapers in the same color palette in a room creates a very interesting and unique look to your interior spaces.
Those wallpapers made of natural materials such as paper, fibre, reed,
cork or grass
are
environmentally friendly
and as well as hiding wall imperfections and absorbing noise, they add
wonderful texture and
rich tactile interest to a room in your home.While some consider these designer wallpapers suitable only for contemporary style homes, they can in fact look fabulous in a more traditional and formal setting to give a more relaxed, natural and serene atmosphere in your room.
Intriguing Documentary Designs:
Documentary wallpapers are one of the latest trends in designer wallpapers.
These wallpapers are based on old documents or swatches of fabric and can give your home a look that is both antique and contemporary as well as making wonderful backgrounds for period furniture, grouped prints and shabby chic furniture.
Stripes - Always in Style:
Striped
designer wallpapers are
always in style, not only because of all the
myriad of colors, patterns and textures available,
but because stripes also have the
ability
to disguise a room's shortcomings. For example, vertical stripes can
make a low
ceiling appear much higher, while horizontal stripes fool the eye into
thinking a small
room is much larger.Stripes work well in both contemporary and traditional style homes. They can be glossy and streamline, botanical and feminine, geometric or earthy depending on the colors and the design.
Time Honored Designs:
Time honored designs such as
paisley, damask and crewelwork are also
being translated into stunning wall coverings. They can give your decorating a rich plush opulent touch reminiscent of a bygone era.
And black and white doesn't have to look so stark anymore.
You can find beautiful and elegant designer wallpapers that come in many patterns, from simple checks and stripes to repeat patterns of scrolls, sketched scenes and even wallpapers inspired by animals like leathers, snake and crocodile patterns.
Animal prints are truly a classic style and never go out of fashion. They are perfectly at home in any environment, even in a very traditional home.
Wallpaper has come a long way since the 60's and 70's when it last
enjoyed a burst of popularity with geometric and
psychedelic designs.If you find yourself yearning for those days or for any retro period or bygone era, you can decorate your home with beautiful vintage designer wallpapers to fit your vision, personaltiy and style .
You can find a wide range of retro and vintage designer wallpapers online. There are also wallpaper companies that specialize in vintage design reproductions that will delight even the most discerning buyer.
Cutting Edge Textures:
Available in a huge range of patterns, textures just want to make you touch and feel as well as appreciate the visual beauty and the versatility of the wonderful colors and designs.
The velvety finish of flocked wallpaper makes a lovely stunning choice for a feature wall and creates a luxurious ambience in any room while the new dazzling glass beaded designer wallpapers create a unique, modern sophisticated look that you will love to live with for years to come.
Other rising stars in the textured wallpaper range include leather, linen and earthy grass textures, any of which will add interest to a feature wall or a whole room.
New and exciting textures are being added all the time. You can create the illusion of marble, limestone, mother of pearl and pewter as well as gold, silver and copper.
These designer wallpapers should be used sparingly and the wallpaper itself should be of good quality otherwise it tends to look cheap and unrealistic.
Imagine creating a stunning focal wall covered in limestone block wallpaper or a powder room covered in silver leaf squares.
Anaglypta - Paintable Wallpaper:
Anaglypta wallpaper is white wallpaper that has been embossed or is textured to make it look like ornate plasterwork and is very thick and heavy.
This type of wallpaper is ideal for walls with lots of imperfections and can be applied to ceilings as well because you can find one-way directional patterns and designs that create visual uniformity.
The beauty of anaglyptawallpaper is that you can paint it any color that your heart desires and viola, you have beautiful walls reflecting dimension and depth instead of boring flat walls.
A Few Helpful Terms & Tips When Purchasing Wallpaper:
Wallpaper Rolls:
- Wallpaper is sold in either single, double or triple rolls and is usually priced in single rolls.
- Most rolls are Metric or European measuring 20.5" wide and contain 56 sq ft of wallpaper.
- An American roll is usually 27" wide and will yield 34-36 sq ft.
- Some wallpapers come strippable (can be removed without the aid of a wetting agent first)
- Prepasted
- Scrubbable
- There is also a new wall technology where you paste the wall first then hang the paper dry.
Most wallpaper companies will allow you to buy a small sample to test for colors and design. We strongly recommend that you take the time and take advantage of this offer to avoid disappointment down the road .
Holding and comparing these samples against your furnishings and other elements in your room will help you to make the right color and design choices that will fit your vision and style.
In addition, if you're looking for some unique and interesting home decor,
accessories and beatiful area rugs Burke Decor have a great designer selection at very competitive prices to make decorating your home a fun, creative, exciting and rewarding experience for the whole family.

Batch or Dye Lots - IMPORTANT:
The run number indicates when a roll of wallpaper is printed.
To ensure uniformity in color and pattern, all rolls should have the same run number. ALWAYS purchase enough wallpaper to complete your project.
Measuring:
With a steel tape measure: -
- Measure the entire distance around the room in feet.
- Multiply this by the height of the walls to be covered.
- This gives you the total square footage to be covered.
To avoid this problem it's a good idea to include windows and doors when measuring your room. Not only is this simpler but you will be assured of enough wallpaper to complete your project.
If you find yourself with some leftoever rolls, papering a closet, making an interesting headboard behind your bed or a colorful backsplash in your kitchen can be an easy and creative decorative solution.
Where there's a Wall there's a Way:
The fact is that designer wallpapers can be anything you want them to be, from highly contemporary and modern to fun, retro or shabby chic. The sky's the limit.
Start looking around online to get some ideas, order some samples, fall in love with the beautiful patterns, colors and textures and get ready to be totally dazzled.
