Wallpaper or paint

Question:

When to wallpaper, when to paint?

Advice from Liz:

When to wallpaper, when to paint?

The trend recently is to go for bold, colourful wallpaper on just one wall. Try Cole and Son for great designs - these are top end of the market but as you'll only need 2-3 rolls, it is really worth it. With one feature wall, this helps focus the space and gives a 'wow' factor to the room. If the background colour of the wallpaper isn't too loud, get your local paint supplier to colour match the paint to the paper and use this on the other 3 remaining walls. You'll really have a room with style!
