We are anxiously awaiting our new wallpaper line to be up and working on our website next week but wanted to give you a sneak peek at some of our new wallpaper designs. Pricing will be just $7.50 per square foot.
We will have over 2K new mural and wallpaper designs to share soon but these cover the types of designs you will be seeing.
We will have everything from bold and bright patterns to more subdued classic designs.
Changing colors on any of our wallpaper patterns is very easy. Let us know your favorite paint or pantone color and we will work to match it.
Our wallpaper printers and materials are of the highest quality so expect the best color on our heavy peel and stick fabric. No mess, no glue, just easy installation.
A growing trend of adding wallpaper to doors, stairs, bookshelves, and more is making pieces that were plain just a little more exciting and well…..personal.
Customized Walls is introducing a whole big line of wallpapers in the coming week. I am really excited to see what our clients use our wallpaper material for. Because it peels and sticks and removes with no damage, I say be adventurous. Add some pattern and texture to some boring furniture pieces and bring them back to life!
May of our clients have used our material for stair stickers, cabinet skins, bookcases, and doors and the feedback is AMAZING! People are over the moon with the way these patterns add their personality to their space.
Starting in 1 week, we will have 1500 new wallpaper patterns and 1000 new wall mural patterns to choose from. Any of our patterns can be customized. We can change patterns to match your favorite paint or pantone colors or we can add filters to our mural designs to make them black and white, sepia, painter effects, etc. We want your design to be about YOU.
AND, should you not find anything in our GIGANTIC selection of murals and wallpaper patterns, you can always upload your own favorite photo or art piece and we can print that wall size.
I will be posting new wallpaper images all week and would LOVE your feedback.
Many of you know that the typography trend is very hot right now. The craft of mixing font and word is elevated to new heights in Fashion and home decor. But, did you know your could have Typography wallpaper?
Customized Walls is releasing a fantastic new line of Typography wallpapers that will add a little chic to your home or office. I LOVE block lettering as it reminds me of old printing presses. There is a real earthyness to the wood blocks that you imagine some bespeckled craftsman carefully placing out the letters in each word on the press and then after hand rolling papers for hours on end, returning to a large wooden ink stained box. But, I digress, to me these wooden block typography wallpapers can speak of an earlier time and I love them.
We also have a gorgeous script font scribble pattern. They words written? Who knows. The romance of the messy handwritten script that goes on and on can remind you love letters or poetry or the great american novel. Pages torn from some well used notebook that had been poured over for hours in a coffee shop. I don’t have to know what the words say but how they make me feel.
Chalkboard scribblings and words of love round out our new collection of typography wallpapers that I am confident, have a little something for everyone.
These typography wallpaper patterns make me feel romance and earthy and rich in history while still showing that I am still a little bit hip.
But I am curious, what do YOU think of our new typography wallpaper line?
These patterns will be available on the website in 2 short weeks or you can preorder by emailing me at laurie@customizedwalls.com
