Stenciled grasscloth or wallpaper for bedroom accent wall or ???

8 years ago
last modified: 8 years ago

I saw hand-screened grasscloth wall coverings that I like, but they're way beyond my budget. So, I figured I'd try stenciling grasscloth. I have scraps of grasscloth and cardboard to practice on. I also found a pretty wallpaper that family and friends like. I'd appreciate your thoughts on stenciled grass in general, the stencils shown, the wallpaper.

Wall is 8 x 11. Room has 2 east facing windows.

Thank you.

    Properly applied wallcovering on a prepped wall should not be that hard to remove. I think the problem that lots of people have with wallcovering removal is that it was not put up properly to begin with.

    But if you are already thinking about its' removal and it hasn't even been chosen yet, you might want to pass altogether.
