By now we all know that wallpaper has made a major comeback.  Now it’s time to move beyond the basic and safe and embrace the graphic, bold and perhaps a little eccentric.

Here are 25 examples of wallpaper that don’t hold back, and make a purely chic statement.

5 Fab Wallpapers You Should Try

Decorating, Interior design, wallpaper

Okay, so in case you haven’t heard, wallpaper is back! No one is saying that you have to cover every wall in your house, but an accent wall in your living room, bedroom, or a nursery can be just the right touch a room needs.

Here are 5 picks for the most (and less) bold among us.

Bold & Cheerful

I love this for a dining room accent wall to create a more formal but still fun ambiance.

rJungle_Passion__light_gray_background2_turned_right_and_layered_large_for_MORGAN_large_scale_preview

 

Subtle & Soft

For the less bold, this is a great option to add interest in a more quite way. Perfect for a soothing bedroom.

rasian_birds_grey_and_white_preview

 

Sophisticated & Versatile

A wallpaper that is not too feminine and will add sophistication to any room. Truly suitable for any room in the house.

rrrraged_ikat_ed_preview

 

Abstract & Modern

The non-pattern pattern that shows just how hip and edgy you really are.  Put in on an accent wall in your living room to really make a statement.

Whimsical & Colorful

The perfect backdrop for a gender neutral nursery that doesn’t scream baby but does evoke child’s play and happiness.

Hello, Handsome!

Today I’m trading in feminine-chic for masculine-handsome.  Presenting the “Dapper Man Cave”. No kegs or neon signs here… just an ultra-handsome hangout that’s hip, distinguished and a little bit seductive.  Despite the mounted bullhead (don’t worry, it’s faux), this man cave reads more Don Draper than Paul Bunyan.  It’s a versatile space that’s the perfect mix of modern and rustic; masculine enough for him, but polished enough for her (that is, if she’s ever allowed to enter :))

From left to right: Wallpaper – Graham & Brown | Sofa – Jonathan Adler, wayfair.com | Cashmere Throw – Bronte Moon, occa-home.co.uk | Cardboard Bullhead – Cardboard Safari | Light Fixture – unknown, similar at Restoration Hardware| Coffee Table – BDI USA, allmodern.com | Bar Cart – Arteriors Home, zincdoor.com | Decanter – LSA, occa-home.co.uk | Leather Recliner – Crate & Barrel | Wall Clock – Kenneth Wingard, inmod.com

Any other items or finishing touches you’d like to see in the “cave”?

What I’m currently purchasing, coveting, and dreaming about

Significant Jewels

I’m obsessed with this customizable necklace.  In keeping with my shopping addition, I already bought it for myself as an early Mothers’ Day gift.  I got it personalized with Keira’s birthdate… ahhh ♥♥♥♥♥

DIY “Wallpaper”

I love the idea of creating custom wallpaper using tiny ♥ decals in a random pattern… genius!

Dream Vacation HoMe

To this day, my favorite vacation every year is visiting my family’s cottage on a small lake in Michigan for my family reunion.  It was originally built by my great-grandfather and great, great-uncle… If I won a million dollars, I would fix it up to look like this.

Summer Lovin’

I don’t know about the rest of the world, but here in Los Angeles, the 90+ degree temps have me dreaming about summer beach cruiser days.  How cute is this bike basket? I’m pretty sure I need it.

Did you know that today is officially Denim Day?!?  No really, everyone has an excuse to wear jeans to work today.

Denim Day was started by the non-profit organization, Peace Over Violence, in protest of sexual violence against women.  It’s such an important cause which is why today’s post is all about denim.

Here to prove that denim can be chic, here are some examples of denim done right.

Looking to brighten your day?  A little bit of yellow might be just what the doctor ordered.  My favorite thing about yellow… it demands to be seen! Now I’m not recommending wall-to-wall or head-to-toe yellow; just a few pieces to add some interest.

Here are just a few ways to accessorize with yellow.

1. Tempaper Honeycomb Wallpaper; 2Modern | 2. Kendra Scott ‘Danielle’ Statement Earrings; Nordstrom | 3. Hope 3-Drawer Side Table; One Kings Lane | 4. Upholstered Ottoman; Layla Grayce | 5. Striped Rug; Posh Tots | 5. Equipment ‘Adriana’ Silk Blouse; Piperlime
