Overwhelmed by Wallpaper Choices? How to Find Your Perfect Fit with Sample Orders from Wallpaper Mural

Introduction

Choosing the perfect wallpaper can be exciting, but let’s be honest—faced with hundreds of beautiful options, it can also feel a bit overwhelming! At Wallpaper Mural, we understand the thrill and the challenge of selecting a design that will transform your space. With our vast collection, filled with patterns, colors, and styles to suit every taste, it’s easy to find yourself wondering, “How do I pick just one?”

That’s where our sample ordering option comes in. We want you to feel confident and thrilled about your choice, not stressed. Ordering samples lets you see the designs you love in person, compare them in your space, and truly experience the color, texture, and quality before you commit.

In this blog, we’ll walk you through how to make the most of our sample service, so you can enjoy the wallpaper selection process, narrow down your options, and find that perfect fit for your walls with ease.

Why Wallpaper Choices Matter

Wallpaper is more than just a backdrop; it’s a powerful way to express your style, set the mood of a room, and bring personality to your space. Whether you’re looking to create a bold, artistic statement or add a subtle, calming atmosphere, the wallpaper you choose can completely transform how a room looks and feels.

When selecting wallpaper, there are a few key considerations that can make each choice unique to you:

  • Color: Colors affect our mood and how we perceive space. Deep, rich tones can add warmth and sophistication, while lighter shades bring openness and tranquility. The right color choice can highlight your room’s best features or introduce a refreshing contrast.

  • Pattern: Patterns—from florals and geometrics to abstract designs—can turn a wall into a focal point. A large-scale mural, for example, can bring depth and drama, while smaller, intricate patterns can add a gentle, sophisticated charm. With the range of options, it’s easier than ever to find a pattern that aligns with your vision.

  • Texture: Textures bring dimension and character, making a wall feel dynamic and inviting. Matte, glossy, or textured wallpapers each create different effects under light, adding layers of detail that bring a room to life.

With so many aspects to consider, the perfect wallpaper is one that aligns with both your style and the feeling you want to evoke. Taking the time to consider each element will make your choice meaningful, allowing your wallpaper to become an expression of what makes your space uniquely yours. And with the sample option, you don’t have to rely solely on images—you can experience it all firsthand before making the final call.

With so many unique designs available, it’s natural to feel a bit overwhelmed. But don’t worry—our website is designed to help you easily narrow down options to find the wallpaper that fits your vision. Here’s how you can make the most of our browsing features to find designs that perfectly align with your style, space, and specific needs.

  • Browse by Styles: Start by visiting our “Styles” section to explore the type of look you’re going for. From the delicate elegance of Chinoiserie to the soft allure of Watercolour, the creative flair of Abstract, or the natural beauty of Floral, you can select from a wide array of style categories. Other popular options include Boho, Geometric, and more—so no matter your aesthetic, you’re likely to find a category that resonates. This will instantly focus your search on designs that align with your personal style.

  • Explore Colors: If you already have a color scheme in mind, our “Colors” section allows you to select a specific color from the menu. Once chosen, you’ll see wallpaper designs that contain that exact color, making it easy to find options that will complement your existing decor and create a harmonious look within your space.

  • Choose by Room: Sometimes, the right wallpaper depends on the room you’re decorating. In our “Rooms” section, you’ll find curated options suited to each space, whether you’re styling a cozy living room, creating a tranquil bedroom, or brightening up a home office. Simply select the room you’re designing, and you’ll instantly be shown designs that work well for that setting, helping you find options with the right ambiance and functionality.

  • Check Out the Kids’ Section: For those designing a space for a child, we offer a dedicated “Kids” section filled with fun, age-appropriate designs.

Choosing a wallpaper is a big decision, and seeing the designs you love in person can make all the difference. With samples from Wallpaper Mural, you can get a true feel for each option and ensure it’s the right fit before fully committing. Here are some of the key benefits of ordering samples to help make your selection process easier and more confident:

  • See True Colors and Textures: While screens offer a convenient preview, colors and textures can vary in real life. By ordering samples, you can experience the exact shades, intricate patterns, and finishes of each wallpaper, allowing you to see them in the context of your unique space. Whether it’s a soft pastel that appears differently in various lights or a bold print with distinct textures, having a sample helps you know precisely what you’ll be getting.

  • Check Compatibility with Your Space: Samples allow you to test how each design interacts with your room’s specific lighting, furniture, and décor. Natural light changes throughout the day, and artificial lighting can bring out different tones in a design. By placing samples on your walls, you can see how each option looks from morning to night, ensuring it complements your space perfectly.

  • Evaluate Quality and Feel: Samples give you a chance to feel the wallpaper’s material and quality. This is especially helpful for customers looking for durable options or specific textures. By handling the sample, you can get a sense of its thickness, finish, and durability—important factors, especially if you’re planning for a high-traffic area or a space where quality is a priority.

  • Easier Final Decision-Making: Comparing samples side-by-side can help you visually eliminate options and zero in on the designs that speak to you. It’s one thing to love a design online, but quite another to see it as part of your actual environment. Samples allow you to refine your selection and make a confident, informed choice that you’ll be thrilled with.

Ordering samples is a simple, affordable way to see, feel, and experience your top choices firsthand. With samples in hand, you can take the guesswork out of the selection process and be sure you’ve chosen the wallpaper that best suits your space, style, and needs.

With your samples in hand, you’re just a few steps away from choosing the wallpaper that will transform your space. Here are some practical tips to help you make a confident, well-informed decision:

  • Consider Lighting
    Place each sample on your wall and observe how it looks throughout the day in different lighting conditions. Natural daylight, evening shadows, and artificial lighting can all affect the color and mood of a design. This will give you a full perspective on how each option will look no matter the time of day.

  • Compare Against Existing Décor
    Evaluate each sample against your current furniture, flooring, and decor. Notice how the design’s colors, patterns, and textures interact with the elements already in your space. This will help you see how well it harmonizes with your room’s style or, if you’re going for contrast, how it adds a unique flair.

  • Think About Scale and Placement
    Larger patterns can make a statement as a feature wall, while subtler designs are versatile and work beautifully on multiple walls. Consider where you’ll be placing your wallpaper and how the scale of the design will impact the space. Hold the sample at various angles or distances to envision its effect on the overall room layout.

  • Gather Opinions
    Getting input from family members or friends can provide a fresh perspective. Sometimes, others can point out things we may have overlooked or help confirm that one design stands out among the rest. Plus, sharing the process adds an extra layer of excitement as you work toward your final choice.

  • Trust Your Instincts
    Ultimately, the best wallpaper is the one that you feel genuinely excited about each time you see it. While practical considerations are important, remember to go with the design that makes you feel most at home. Trusting your gut can lead you to the choice that will bring you joy every time you enter the room.
