Hey, I’m in the same boat! For small spaces, light tones are definitely the way to go. I’ve used light grays and soft whites before, and they really help open up the space. As for patterns, I’d suggest going for something subtle like thin stripes or a geometric design. It’ll add interest without making the room feel cluttered. If you want something with a bit of texture, there are some amazing options in light metallic finishes that reflect light and make the room feel larger.
Great tips! I hadn’t thought about metallic finishes—sounds like it could make the space look brighter and more open. I’m also wondering if I should get a professional to install it. I’m pretty handy, but I don’t want to mess up the walls. Do you think it’s worth hiring someone?
Honestly, if you want a flawless finish, I’d definitely recommend hiring a professional. Wallpapering can be tricky, especially when it comes to lining up patterns or handling textured wallpaper. Plus, it’s a lot of work! If you're in Dallas - https://bestwallpaperinstaller.com/locations/wallpaper-installers-dallas/, I’ve heard good things about wallpaper installation in Dallas. They’ve got great reviews and offer both design and installation services. Might be worth checking out if you want it done perfectly.
Thanks for the recommendation! I’ll definitely check out wallpaper installation in Dallas. How much does professional wallpaper installation typically cost?
It depends on the room size and type of wallpaper, but usually, it’s around $300-$500 for a standard living room. It’s worth the investment, especially if you're using a high-quality wallpaper or something more intricate. You don’t want to deal with the stress of DIY installation and possible mistakes!
That sounds reasonable. I think I’ll go ahead and hire a pro to make sure everything looks perfect. Thanks again for the advice—I feel much more confident about this project now!
