Create texture with wallpaper
Wallpaper is a fun way to add texture to a room, but covering full walls can also be pricey, with options running as high as a few hundred dollars per roll, plus the cost of installation. To curb costs, consider using wallpaper as an accent.
“I recommend putting it in unexpected places like behind shelves, in an alcove, in single panels on a wall, or simply in a pretty wall frame,” says Nicole Alexander, principal and owner of Siren Betty Design, a Chicago-based firm specializing in restaurant and hotel design.
You can even use peel and stick wallpaper to reduce the cost of labor.
