The last two samples look the part. I can feel ya on this one: "I can imagine getting cheesed off with the birds in a few years." There's something about that design that just won't stand with me in a few months time. John Taylor, liverpool blinds quick tips on selecting the right shape and styling your room

Erin – I got some wall stickers for our older son’s room room from a store on Etsy, Decomodwalls. They were bit tricky to install but the effect is great and they were very reasonably priced. I think it’s a great way to cater to a child’s very specific tastes without too much commitment. That said, I have no idea how easy they are to take off!!

These are lovely Lucy – and the one you landed on looks perfect! I can’t wait to see the finished nursery. And good to know there are so many great wallpaper selections in the UK.

I am still so excited for you that you’re pregnant! I LOVE the wallpaper you settled on!

Any thoughts though on wall stickers? I’ve used blik for a few things and they are always removable (good transition pieces?)

I think your final choice is spot on – you can do a lot with it. Oh, but that Vivienne Westwood! Marvelous. Looking forward to seeing the results.

Cristin – wow, thanks, these are all great! I particularly like the fish (Derwent). Can’t beat Osborne and Little! Thanks for the suggestions. I need to make a decision!

I love that squiggle pattern too. Hard to believe in this global economy, they wouldn’t ship it to you. But, I also like the Day Dream in China – fun orange bird motif!

Here are a few others you may want to consider:

I love all of them – especially the birds one – but I agree you could get tired of it. I’d go for the last one – the geometric style looks interesting but not overbearing. I’m about to look for wallpaper for a feature panel/wall in a WC – any suggestions?
