The trend for papered walls began in the 16th century as decorative patterns from the east became an exotic fascination to western cultures. Today, wallpaper is more accessible than ever from big box stores to small artisanal brands. Whether you are looking to add a bit of texture to a room with a grasscloth wallcovering or create a twist on an iconic look, you no longer need the designer trade secrets to access a wide range of iconic wallpaper designs.
While it's easier than ever to buy wallpaper online, it's important order a swatch first to make sure the colors are what you need for your space. Consider the fact that every website has different requirements: Some will allow purchases by the square foot, while others require a minimum number of rolls to be purchased. Most importantly, always double- or triple-check the quantity you need and include overage. Pattern matching can create a lot of waste, and colors can vary in pigment if hand-printed or painted.
Here, our style and market editors share some of their favorite places to buy wallpaper online.
