Airstream Trailer Wallpaper Inspiration

What’s better than hitting the open road in a travel trailer? Choosing the prints that will make your home away from home so much cozier! Statement wallpaper on the walls of these cottages on wheels can give the tiny space personality while also making it seem larger and more grand. As rooms sometimes need to serve many purposes, wallpaper accent walls are also a great way to differentiate one area from the next.

Bathroom & Laundry Room Wallpaper Inspiration

An accent wall with eye-catching wallpaper in a small space can make a big impact. Whether with a timeless floral like in Hana’s laundry room or the surfers that surround the Shepstone’s bathroom mirror, you can easily add some flair! Tanya of Dans le Lakehouse’s light turquoise choice adds subtle movement (while also being a perfect backdrop for a photoshoot for her extra fuzzy backyard chicken).

Bedroom Wallpaper Inspiration

We love how these creatives use high-impact wallpaper designs against more neutral bed linens and furniture pieces to create their own personal oasis. Chango and Co. covered every wall and ceiling surface with their wallpaper choice and Michelle’s cat looks right at home in the orange floral space.

Kid’s Bedroom Wallpaper Inspiration

Wallpaper can really tie everything in the room together and we feel like a kid again looking at how these designs play so nicely with everything else in the room – especially the bed linens! Smaller projects like the backing of a bookshelf or the backsplash of the IKEA kitchen playset are easy ways to personalize a space for your little ones as well.

Living Room Wallpaper Inspiration

Gathering spaces like living rooms are a great chance to showcase your family’s collective personality. Jennifer of the Rambling Renovator chose a blue design that takes on a more traditional feel from far away, but becomes more playful up close as you examine the subject matter, kayak blueprints, more closely.

A panel of wallpaper with repeating rows of narrow ovals with pointed tops and bottoms on a cream background is shown laying as if installed on a wall it is taking up the entire background of the image. The ovals are randomly black and dark orange. In the middle third on the right-hand side of the image, four rolls of the same wallpaper design in different colorways are laid lengthwise on top of the black-and-dark-orange panel. Only about a fourth of the rolls are shown. The rolls of wallpaper from top to bottom feature green-and-blue ovals on a cream background, black-and-white ovals on a cream background, orange-and-gray ovals on a cream background and kelly-green-and-dark-green ovals on a cream background.
