Using Wallpaper To Spruce Up Your Home; Wall Decorated with Wallpaper with a TV Hanging

This is a contributed post from Michelle on Home Decor.

Your home is where you spend a good part of your day. After a tiring day, it is your escape to the comfort world.

That said, know that decent decor and comfort go hand-in-hand. Meaning, you get more sense of comfort if your space is well decorated and easily organised.

This is why decorating your home with the right elements like marble wallpaper or mixing wallpaper designs is crucial. 

In fact, mixing wallpaper designs could be a simple way to add visual interest. It can be really effective in giving your space a unique look. Plus, it’s not as hard as you might think!

Here are some tips on how to mix wallpaper patterns for home decor:

Keep The Scale In Mind

When choosing wallpapers, pick patterns with similar scales or measurements that will fit together on the wall. This allows you to create a cohesive look for your space and is much easier than mixing different sizes of patterns all at once.

Focusing on finding wallpapers with similar scales means fewer seams, which equals less work in the installation process.

Take Your Time When Choosing

Even though there are thousands of different prints out there, only a few go well together. You’ll want to make sure you don’t end up looking like you just threw everything on the wall haphazardly. Be patient, keep looking, and hold out for something that really interests you.

Think Outside the Box

One great way to mix different wallpaper patterns is by looking beyond traditional prints like florals or geometric shapes. You can also look for other sorts of patterns to match your needs as well.

For example, a paisley print may match the colours in your home décor perfectly. Think about what sorts of things you can use to create cohesion between your patterns, and have fun experimenting with unexpected options!

Avoid Mixing Too Many Prints

Less is more when it comes to mixing wallpapers for home decor. You don’t want to try and do too much in one space, or you’ll end up with a design that’s too chaotic and busy. For best results, don’t mix more than three different patterns simultaneously.

Consider the Room

Ask yourself – Do you want to add personality to a room that’s already finished? If so, then mixing different patterns is a great option. Or, if you’re renovating and would like some wallpaper for inspiration, mixing prints may help you find your next design!

Use Accent Walls

Another good idea for adding personality to your home décor is by using wallpaper on an accent wall. A good option for doing this has a feature wall that contrasts with the rest of the space and then adding in matching wallpaper patterns to connect everything together. It’s a modern way to use prints and can be really effective if done correctly!

Expose a Bit

One thing you may want to consider when mixing different wallpaper patterns for home décor is leaving the seams exposed. This allows you to create a fun pattern on your walls and really makes a space stand out. Plus, it’s a great way to make a very dramatic statement in any type of room!

Be Patient

Finally, remember to be patient and take your time. Don’t rush into anything, or you could end up making a really big mistake! Making the wrong choices can ruin a space, so go slowly and pay attention to all of your options.

Conclusion

Mixing wallpaper patterns for home decor can be a great way to add visual interest to your space. However, you must spend some time making the right choices, so you don’t end up with something that looks terrible!

Follow these simple tips, and you’ll find yourself creating cohesive, stunning walls in no time.
