Hey everyone. Considering doing wallpaper in a bedroom but need someone to hang it/give a quote. Price will determine if we paint or wallpaper. I am leaning toward the paper because I found some really cute patterns, but I have no idea how much is reasonable to hang it. Just know it's a messy and tedious job that the Hubs will not likely want to do! 4951

Not to rain on your parade, but have you considered just using a big bold color of paint? I rarely see wallpaper these days and paint is so much easier and cheaper. Big bold color can be fun, even if you do just an accent wall. 4951

I see them put wallpaper up on HGTV often.  It is not out of style , I am sure someone around here hangs it.   4951

@donnatella: We have looked at paint as well, I picked a few colors.  But I would like to consider wallpaper too.  I found some really pretty options and wallpaper does seem to be making a come back.  But overall, it really just depends on our taste and style.  When we sell our house one day someone is going to come in and undo the majority of the painting/styling we have done to fit their own taste/style so I try not to worry about that.  If I purchased our home based on "ready to go style" we would still be living in an apartment!  My house was awful and outdated when we bought it but we have upgraded and changed it to reflect us.  I think that's part of the fun of owning a home, making it your own.

@Maisey1: That is what I keep trying to tell the hubby.  It's messy and tedious.  I would rather pay a professional and be done with it.  I'll sip a sparkling water and watch any day!  LOL

It's so worth it! For the first time ever I paid painters to paint part of my living room. I love to paint so it was killing me that I couldn't get up to the super high walls to do it myself. They were in and out in 4 hours and I must admit, it was really nice to just sit back and watch! 4951

Funny how everyone is hating on wallpaper because I feel the same way about textured walls and popcorn ceilings yet that seems to be really popular down here. All personal taste I guess. But no matter what you do, when you go to sell someone is going to come in and change it all so you may as well do what you like and to hell with everyone else. 4951
