What rug goes with this wallpaper?.
Comments (2)Because the style is quite modern eclectic, my thought was that a muted cow hide rug could work If you feel a bit more daring - these muted colours would echo the traditional carpet or failing that go for a high sheen textural rug that doesn't compete with the monochrome elegance...See MoreKitchen splash back question
Comments (4)You are unable to fix a glass splash back over an image applied to the all, because of the way splash backs are adhered. They are fixed with glazing silicone, therefore you would see the 'goop' as mentioned above. Digiglass create. Custom images on glass, which can include a wallpaper motif ifyou upload into their format. It is expensive, and very custom, but as far as I know, the only way you can have a specific image applied to a splash back. Etched surfaces have been done, although can look very busy, I have also seen a glass splash back fixed with commercial fixings, although it is also expensive, and less suitable to domestic interiors....See MoreLove or Loathe? Wallpaper on the ceiling
Comments (11)I selected Neither - Reason. I think that particular room looks great because a huge amount of expense has gone into making that room picture perfect. It is unrealistic to think that the average home buyer / owner will have that kind of money to invest in a room. Generally I would never put wall paper on a ceiling. The only thing that has made this room work is that they have been able to invest a lot of money into making sure this room is "show room" quality by matching the paper and the carpet and all the furnishings. It is not a homely room. It is a room for a palace or for the rich and famous. You could not relax in this room and I do not think the average family would ever allow their family to use this room - most of us do not have "special occasion" rooms....See Morewallpaper help!
Comments (11)I like Siriuskeys suggestion....but also have a look at the Houzz article "this goes with that'. I think if you really wanted floral a small blue and white design could look ok...but I think it would much more interesting with a more geometric design instead. Room sounds like it will be lovely....See More

7 years agoNo wallpaper for me due to the style of my home. Art can be moved & changed...wallpaper not so easily!
If well done it can certainly transform the space but Luke those examples are not the best...these are more inspirational to me...

7 years agolast modified: 7 years agoI see wallpapered ceilings a bit in photos. See example. I can't imagine that would be easy to do!
An application I did like was wallpaper between dark painted rafters. It was really effective. I don't envy the person who had to do that job. Or anyone who wants to remove it later.In my previous home, every room had been wallpapered sometime in the 80's. All bedrooms, hallway, living room, kitchen, bathroom, toilet. Quite a process to remove! I don't mind wallpaper but I didn't like the ones in that home.
I think wallpaper can work really well in homes with a grander scale. High ceilings, architectural trims etc. In smaller homes, a restrained use is more appropriate IMO.
