Wallpaper in a space can look fantastic, but it can be a hassle to put up and when you tire of it, it’s an even bigger hassle to remove it from the wall. Renting steamers, gouging walls with the wallpaper scraper — you’ve heard the horror stories — maybe you even have one yourself. If so, I would love to hear about it!

What about a stencil that looks like wallpaper? Wallpaper has made a comeback in recent years and is more popular than ever. Why stencil instead of wallpapering? You can get a custom look with colors that may not be readily available in the pattern you like, no messy cutting or pasting, and the best part…no seams! There are so many stencil designs to satisfy everyone’s taste. And, when you want a change, just paint over it! You can add custom design combinations to your wall, whether you are doing a focal area or stenciling the entire room.

Stencils are a versatile addition to any decor and can add dimension and pattern to any space in your home. From classic to fun and funky, stencils are an affordable way to make your space pop!

Below are some examples, enjoy!
