Give Your Walls Some Love! - Ben Laube Homes

Everyone loves a good DIY project and we are here to talk about our top pick for the next one we think you should try in your new home. If you are thinking of adding some smart detail to your front entryway, giving a little something “extra” to your powder room, or want to create dramatic detail in your dining area, we think you should try wallpaper. More specifically… peel and stick, wallpaper!

Wallpaper may have fallen out of fashion for a few decades, but it is back and better than ever! Modern wallpaper is bright, fun, and fresh—you can find everything from bold oversized florals to edgy textured animal prints—and what’s even better, is that it is much easier to install and remove than the wallpaper of before.

Temporary or removable wallpaper has been extremely trendy in the last few years, and as its name implies, this product is unique in its ability to be easily removed. Unlike traditional wallpaper, which requires paste for installation, temporary wallpaper is more similar to an extra-large sticker, so it is easier to put up and can be taken down with minimal damage to your walls—no steaming or scraping required.

As you can probably imagine, this characteristic makes temporary wallpaper an ideal solution for all homeowners. It goes up and comes down without damaging your walls, allowing you to change up the appearance of a room with ease.

Start your search for wallpaper by checking out the top trendiest categories. Here are some of our favorites, which are yours?!

Floral:

Overall, florals have proven to be a really fun and natural addition to wallpaper, providing homes with a touch of nature and the opportunity for anyone to get really creative with space. Despite never being rushed by trends, florals have the same timeless charm.

Geometric:

Geometric patterns appreciate the chic style of simple lines and shapes. Many of these fun wall coverings convey a contemporary look in a room, with abstract and uncomplicated forms in mod colors.

Natural:

This wallpaper gives a serene feeling to any room, bringing balance and harmony and making the home feel peaceful.

Textured:

The progress in new printing techniques and finishes is constantly pushing the boundaries, and the availability of new substrates makes it even more exciting. Gone are the days of just printing on paper, you can now embellish corks, grass-cloths and silks with pretty much any design. The usage is also bolder and braver.
