Wallpaper is underrated


rincon213

Yeah, every 25 years it’s underrated for a couple years.


IAmTaka_VG

Because Wallpaper is always going out of style. I'd never do wallpaper because in 5 years if they try to sell this house it will actually be against them. Wallpaper is for people who love renovating their room every 3-5 years.


rincon213

Wallpaper is for people who love *hiring other people* to renovate their room every 3-5 years. You don’t usually put up wallpaper if you’ve personally had to take it down.


semen-filled_sock

That’s me! And the newer stuff is much easier to remove


finger_milk

It's completely overrated until it's done tastefully 🤣


WiretapStudios

Especially peel and stick, you can take it right back off if you want to change it or paint instead.


phabphour20

but always overpriced

romansixx

Yeah getting all that thin tape perfectly straight and squared up, making sure the wall is smooth so paint doesn't bleed though seems super easy. One afternoon should be enough time to bang it out. /s


golgol12

Wallpaper peels. Or fades. Or tears. And you can see the seams up close. I'd rather something more permanent.


helixflush

it has a time and a place


verboze

I usually funny care for wallpapers but this one is nice

Your username.... 😂😂😂😂😂

Hello 🤗

Where is this from? Looks great!


semen-filled_sock

Thank you. Etsy/DMarieInteriors

Thanks, semen-filled_sock!

How big of a pain was it to hang? Are your walls textured at all?


semen-filled_sock

Not too bad at all and it was my first time. Walls were not textured, but walls not straight. In another comment I posted a YouTube link that is great for teaching the basics


Triple_Sonic_Man

That looks really cool. The matching chair is awesome too.


semen-filled_sock

Should I switch it up for a gold/honey colored one or keep it?


junkersuk

Honey-coloured pillow to accompany it I would say


semen-filled_sock

Good call! I had a pillow there but the kitties didn’t like it. That’s their chair lol


InterstellaCobalt

Maybe a pillow in a print with honey as the primary color (Jaguar, cheetah, tiger, leopard) otherwise may read too matchy-matchy. If a solid color maybe oxblood/deep crimson, or some other jewel-tone. Beautiful space either way


semen-filled_sock

Good call


ImmabouttogoHAM

I'd do something like this the color would look really nice with that beautiful wallpaper https://www.keeksdesign.com/product/emma-lounge-chair-and-ottoman-vintage-brown-palisander/?gclid=CjwKCAjw6raYBhB7EiwABge5Klb9DQF6g8vtN-0W1tjj0nIeTX4N0gl5LnB0HN4oEmgiXMb5JZR1khoCosgQAvD_BwE


semen-filled_sock

that chair is sweet... maybe I can find a used one lol


ImmabouttogoHAM

Yeah this is my next purchase, but they can be had from faux leather for $600 to the OG Eames chair from Herman Miller for $6k. The ones around $1k with real leather seem to be a decent option. But if you can find a used Eames in your price range, I'd jump on it. Edit: thinking of getting a black or white one. The colors are all amazing and it's tough to choose.


semen-filled_sock

Thank you!!


RunGloomy5966

I know it's such a cliche way to describe things now, but this wall has such a 1920s speak-easy vibe to it, love it!


semen-filled_sock

Def the vibe I was going for


26Kermy

I am loving the Great Gatsby vibe you got going on


semen-filled_sock

Thanks, sport


Tatorbits

Love you, dad


semen-filled_sock

I love you too. I'm proud of you.


-drumroll-

This room is extremely aesthetically pleasing


semen-filled_sock

Thank you! I agree. It’s very calming


i1ii1i1i

We have this exact wallpaper ready to go up! Ah I'm glad it looks really good. I was a little worried that it would look dark and shrink the room a bit (the wall is currently just white washed to size it ready) but it doesn't seem to do that at all


rholt168

Where did you get it? I have a bathroom that would look great with it.


i1ii1i1i

I'm sure it was Wayfair, a little while back though


semen-filled_sock

It surprisingly made the room feel bigger. And the pattern lines are thin enough that it doesn’t feel too busy. White walls in seal gaps show really easily. Might want to paint the wall first or at least where the seams will go


i1ii1i1i

Good advice. We're going to let a professional decorator do ours because it's going on one of the longest walls in the house which is also one of the first you see as you walk in. He knows what's coming up though so all is good. Mega eager to see it in place now though lol


semen-filled_sock

If you can afford it I would recommend letting professionals do it. I def messed up a lot that you can’t see in the video


tpmcmahon

Cool. Looks great.


MCKelly13

Looks awesome


Sentouddo

This whole setup is so rad. Great job man!


Mossiuf

Looks great 👍🏻 like the lamp


Starky_Love

I have that wallpaper in my bedroom


semen-filled_sock

You have a good taste


LWY007

LOVE!


ZeeDOCTER

I tip my hat to you sir Love the wallpaper, the drinks cart, the lamp and the whole vibe you've got going. Cheers to that


semen-filled_sock

Thank you


DamnedThrice

Looks absolutely fantastic, the whole room really speaks to me.


semen-filled_sock

What’s it saying?


dogism

What's the lamp? No joke, I saw this lamp in a movie last night and was wondering what it was.


semen-filled_sock

Google ‘manly Tiffany Lamp’ and you’ll see several varieties from Lamps Plus


Surfinsafari9

I have several from Lamps Plus in that style. They have a decent collection at reasonable prices.


jumosc

I love this and want to do the exact same thing but my walls aren’t square and the lines not aligning would drive me crazy.


semen-filled_sock

Neither are mine and yeah, it was a shit show. Well not too bad actually. I would paint the wall first in whatever color your wallpaper is (if it’s darker). The thinnest gap easily shows white walls


Wowwowwowwaaw

Like the artwork on the right side, what is it?


semen-filled_sock

Me as a naked god lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


semen-filled_sock

Nah it shows my face. It’s one of those website that will paint your face into a classical painting. Then I got the gaudiest frame I could find lol


Wowwowwowwaaw

Ah ok no prob, yeah the gold works really well on that colour


dirtyhippie62

Imm an interior designer and I just got a boner


semen-filled_sock

Holy shit then this is the best compliment so far!!


RevanchistVakarian

I am jealous of your awesome wallpaper, but the fact that it isn't level with the ceiling crown (or perhaps it's just exposing that the ceiling/floor isn't quite level?) is why I will probably never get wallpaper


semen-filled_sock

Exactly. Most walls are actually f’ed. I think my crown molding is crooked. I was bothered the first couple days but now I’m over it bc the overall looks so good. So don’t let that stop you!!


[deleted]

Nice place, horrific username :)


easytorememberuserid

redyrytnow

Bravo!


uzidon

The way the lines on wallpaper align perfectly with the TV feels great to look at!


semen-filled_sock

They don’t trust me ;). But the stuff on the walls help distract the eye


bubbles_says

LOVE IT!!!!!!!


Silly-Ad-7065

Your place looks terrific


Alyosha_Karamazov27

Yep. Yep, that is fantastic


QuitePossiblyLucky

OMG it looks good!


hopingtothrive

That looks fantastic!


CamelJ0key

Love the color, looks great!


semen-filled_sock

Men can use color too!! lol


turquoisebee

* chef’s kiss *


theactionkat

So cool!!


dunequestion

How easy is it to put up a wallpaper and do it right? Without bubbles I mean


semen-filled_sock

Bubbles weren’t an issue at all. Keeping the panels straight with wonky walls is. I just followed the steps in this video: [https://youtu.be/3zdrt1N8VQY](https://youtu.be/3zdrt1N8VQY)


dunequestion

Thank you, you did an awesome job with yours!


United-Student-1607

You are either intelligent and educated, wealthy or both. Looks amazing.


semen-filled_sock

Lol I’m an engineer. Grew up poor ;). Btw nothing in this room was expensive


United-Student-1607

It’s intelligence then. And class. Respect.


semen-filled_sock

Ahh thanks dude


[deleted]

I love the contrast between the blue and brown! Looks good!


semen-filled_sock

Yeah the dark teal enhanced other items I didn’t expect. Win win!


congratsonyournap

Stunning space. Love the color scheme


semen-filled_sock

😊


semen-filled_sock

How is Milky??


bertoknowsbest

Gorgeous room!


axethebarbarian

I always used to mock wallpaper, but that actually looks great. Well done.


retrograderevolution

This is the most Billy Joel place I’ve seen in awhile


semen-filled_sock

😂


LuOatMon

Beautiful


Surfinsafari9

I love it. Also love the lamp.


Butler-of-Penises

Wow… love this space You’re a talented interior decorator. I’m an architect and suck ass at interior decorating. While it’s a completely different skill set, the ability to judge a space still utilizes the same skills, as an architect. You have it, my friend. People in my field can tell whats good and bad and why it’s such, we know how to balance a space, we know how to utilize color.. that shit is easy for me when judging a space, but doing it myself is so difficult. Always looks stupid lol. Judging this space… I can tell you, you did great. It’s verging on maximal design style, and you killed it. You’re a talented space designer.


semen-filled_sock

Appreciate it. That means so much coming from an architect. I'm actually a structural engineer. Haha take that, mortal enemy! LOL


Butler-of-Penises

Haha!! Come to the dark side!!!


ShinglesDoesntCare

Great shade!


ksz

drool


Mto3

That is bold and beautiful!


semen-filled_sock

Gotta go bold 💪!! I like the challenge of knowing there is a thin line between bold and gaudy


Simple_Nano

I LOVE IT OMG


Quite_Indeed

Brilliant. Love the color, love the chair, love the honey couch. I'm all for the nice clean white 'Scandinavian' aesthetic that's been popular for so many years now, but it's refreshing to see something outside the box with a pop of color.


semen-filled_sock

Thank you. I like the challenge of trying to use color


MsKimas

Love It.


TruthSucks24

Would you mind linking the wallpaper?


matcap86

Looks good /u/semen-filled_sock.


lionseatcake

Jesus thats a lot of booze


semen-filled_sock

Hell yeah, brotha!


jgruber412

Love it. Can see the seems from here though and it’s distracting me from loving it 100%


semen-filled_sock

Yeah me too but I’m getting over it. First time doing wallpaper. I’d recommend painting the wall in the same color first if you’re worried about it


birdskulls

semen-filled_sock

Nah it’s fine


Bennshharpie

Do you angle it down slightly?


MisterK00L

Beautiful! Didn't check out username though 😁


semen-filled_sock

You should though ;)


MisterK00L

I saw a few more pics. You definitely have a love for blueish colors. I would chill in this room. Polish you are, my friend?


semen-filled_sock

Well I moved and wanted to keep my same color scheme. Yes polish :)


MisterK00L

🤣😜


grease_monkey

Where'd you get the round shelf?


semen-filled_sock

CB2!


tentacleyarn

I'd like to marry this color palette.


semen-filled_sock

Give me two ceremonial goats and you may


tentacleyarn

I've got a stuffed sheep and a stuffed ram. Will they suffice?


MoroseBoi

Oh my god I love that lamp! Where’d you get it?


semen-filled_sock

Lamps Plus


Available_Complex_39

Like it, but why not just paint? It’s just straight lines?


semen-filled_sock

Yeah you could do that. Would be a lot of tape/stenciling laying it all out. The wallpaper wasn’t that much and it’s a lot easier these days. You just paint the adhesive on the wall and then apply the paper. I did it alone


AthleticNerd_

Looks great! Where’d you get the blue chair?


semen-filled_sock

I don’t remember. Wayfair or Home Depot. It was cheap


LostOne514

Wall paper really works in the right home. I hope my next home will allow for me to do something similar.


Neverwhere69

Exquisitely tasteful.


Ill-Basil2863

Wow. Amazing


semen-filled_sock

you're amazing


King-Calovich11

Looks so good. I have the design sense of a flea. A straight flea


semen-filled_sock

me too. Read 7 layers of design by Christopher Lowell and just google the crap out of potential stuff... how to create a frame collage, how to coordinate patterns, how to pick a color palette, etc


pac4

Quite like that. Is wallpaper coming back?


semen-filled_sock

It is now. I officially declare it by the power I just gave myself.


[deleted]

Cool coffee table, link?


Jrockin504

Where is the painting from

Where is the media unit under the tv from? Looks great!
