focal point with wallpaper, too much?

2 years ago

Would it be too much to have a patterned wallpaper next to the fireplace. I have an accent wall and I was thinking of doing this to my fireplace but blue to match my kitchen island. But I wanted to add a wallpaper (not a busy pattern) with it.

Thank you for the question. I think wallpaper would be a beautiful addition to either side of this fireplace, if you are not adding the book shelves. Happy papering!
