Where To Buy Wallpaper: The 15 Best Stores For Wall Decoration
Itching for a little change? While you may not be ready to dive into a full-blown home renovation, there are other ways to entirely transform a space. Yes, you can invest in new throw pillows or a funky rug, but we're thinking about a more dramatic, but still simple, improvement: wallpaper.
Wallpaper offers the opportunity for a complete style overhaul. Whether you're on the hunt for traditional wallpaper rolls or the more temporary peel-and-stick paper, it's key to find a trustworthy brand or retailer with quality, long-lasting products. From eye-catching florals, abstract, and vintage prints to textured, neutral, and customizable papers, there are endless options no matter your taste in home decor. Since we have a feeling this is just the level of change you need, we rounded up 15 of the greatest spots to find showstopping wallpaper online.
The 15 Best Places to Buy Wallpaper
1. Chasing Paper
Started in New York City by a Midwesterner who grew up in the printing industry, Chasing Paper creates stylish, design-focused traditional and removable wallpapers that stick to almost any surface — not just walls. With a handful of artist collaborations, as well as a beautiful selection of in-house patterns, the options feel endless.
Our pick: Carrie Shryock Crossing Lines Traditional Wallpaper (2 ' x 8'), $90
Serena & Lily
Everything Serena & Lily does is good. For refined yet not overly formal wallpaper, this is certainly our pick. It will make any room feel like a beachside hotel suite.
Our Pick: Serena & Lily Woodland Paper (20.5" x 33'), $148
Tempaper
Environmentally conscious and produced in the United States, Tempaper products are made with water-based inks and adhesives. When the company launched in 2008, the peel-and-stick wallpapers were the first of their kind. Now, collections by designers like Bobby Berk and Cynthia Rowley are signatures for the brand.
Our pick: Tempaper Cabana Removable Paper (2' x 4'), $40
Rifle Paper Co.
Oh, how we love Rifle Paper Co. — and unsurprisingly, wallpaper is one of the retailer's specialties. For the sweetest, most whimsical of florals, this is your one-stop shop. There is a particularly exceptional selection of old-school, vintage-inspired picks.
Our pick: Rifle Paper Co. Hawthorne Wallpaper (324" x 27" ), $122
Graham & Brown
Founded in England in 1946, Graham & Brown has been in the wallpaper business for quite some time. The company features simplistic wallpaper designs, bold prints for accent walls, and timeless classics. The brand specifically sells paste-the-wall style wallpaper, which means you place the paste on the wall instead of the paper. This method makes the refined, neutral wallpapers both easy to hang and peel off.
Our pick: Graham & Brown Fan Black and Gold Wallpaper (32.8' x 20.47"), $130
West Elm
West Elm is reliable in pretty much every home category, but we're officially adding wallpaper to the list. The company carries familiar brands like Chasing Paper and Tempaper, as well as Drop It Modern, Wallshoppe, and more. Patterns range from muted and subtle to loud and fun.
Our pick: West Elm Spliced Geo Wallpaper (26" x 11'h), $150
Urban Outfitters
Bold patterns abound in Urban Outfitters' selection of removable wallpapers (the brand doesn't sell traditional paper). Here, you can find everything from cow print to constellations to midcentury geometrics. If you usually connect with Urban's style, you won't be disappointed.
Our pick: Urban Outfitters Overscale Lily Removable Wallpaper (48" x 24"), $59
Society6
If you want to go bold while supporting artists from all over, Society6 is the spot. It features every print, pattern, color, and design you could ever dream of at a budget-friendly price. Plus, if you fall in love with a specific pattern, you can get it printed on pretty much anything, including a throw pillow, phone case, or shower curtain.
