Promising review: "Love, love, love this wallpaper!!! It is beautiful and unique, refined and elegant, and heavy-duty quality. I found it super easy to install, though I opted to use it for a room border versus full wall coverage. I also found it very forgiving, allowing me to pull it back off and adjust areas without leaving permanent dents in the design. It gave my son’s bedroom a whole new look and I have gotten lots of compliments on this wallpaper!" —Melissa

3. A beautifully floral designed NuWallpaper Mirei peel and stick wallpaper to add just the right amount of softness to any room.

Amazon

Comes on a 20.5" x 18' roll and covers about 30.75 sq. ft.

Promising review: "The quality of this paper is amazing and it's much more beautiful in person than online. It a nice tone of gray, blue, and gold! I used this paper for an accent wall in a room. A lot of people mentioned that it's difficult to match the patterns up once you cut it and it caused a lot of wasted paper. But what I did was buy three rolls, lined them up to match first, numbered them, and then placed them on the wall. I did need help — so I had someone help me. Two to three people would be best. I used three rolls for two walls and it took me about four to five hours to put it up. Lining it up and making sure it's straight and matches the pattern and that there are no bubbles takes time. I used the extra wallpaper as artwork. I framed a few of them and added them to the other wall in the room so it ties in all together nicely." —Amorgitano

Get it from Amazon for $27.29.

4. A luxuriously textured Graham & Brown Superfresco black crocodile wallpaper people are going to think you spent a fortune on.

Amazon

Just a note — this is traditional wallpaper (not peel-and-stick) and requires the right tools for installation. Specifically, paste and a paste brush.

Roll length is 20.48" x 32.80' and the pattern repeats every 25.19"

Promising review: "This wallpaper is AMAZING! Fairly easy to work with if you know how to apply wallpaper. Looks expensive and really makes a statement in our half bath. The texture is so fun too! You will not be disappointed! This is not your typical paperbacked wallpaper, so when the time comes to strip, it will come off completely in a matter of minutes. The other bonus is that it is easy to move and slide into place when you get it on the wall, it will not tear. Note: you need to find a paste to apply to the wall, not the back of the paper, so do your research before buying. I knew this because I researched, but I can foresee people being irritated at the paper." —Joy BY

Get it from Amazon for $49.99.

5. A shimmering peel-and-stick Tempaper designed with a peacock blue backdrop and a metallic gold peonies print for that perfectly subtle touch of glam.

Amazon

Comes on a 20. 5" wide x 16. 5' long roll and covers up to 28 sq. ft.

Promising review: "Beautiful adhesive wallpaper! Super easy to install with just two people and a wallpaper smoothing kit. Mistakes are hard to notice on the dark blue, even if you mess up. We used basically one whole roll to cover one length side and one width side beneath our eat-in kitchen counter. Even though we needed to overlap the wallpaper to cover the height of our counters, it's incredibly difficult to notice that the print doesn't match unless you're really looking for it! Also noticed the dark wallpaper draws our eyes upwards while still being so pleasing to admire. :)" —Casey

Get it from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in two colors).

6. A whimsical blue and red dandelion print RoomMates peel-and-stick wallpaper that can turn your space into Picasso's gardens.

Amazon

Roll length is 20.5" wide x 16.5'.

Promising review: "Beautiful print and love the peel and stick ease. Came with very detailed instructions which were helpful. Just make sure you order extra so that you are able to line up the pattern:) Love love it!" —Christine T Connelly

Get it from Amazon for $31.49 (available in eight colors).

7. A textured roll of Graham & Brown's Small Square wallpaper that's designed to be entirely paintable. It'll look like you installed new tiles but in reality, it's just wallpaper!

Amazon

Just a note — this is traditional wallpaper (not peel and stick) and requires the right tools for installation. Specifically, paste and a paste brush.

Each roll is 20.5" wide x 11 yards long and covers 56 square feet.

Promising review: "I used this product (perhaps a different brand) about 20 years ago and loved it to cover a cracked plaster wall in an old home. This time I used it to cover an old rough ceiling in a small bathroom I'm remodeling. I think to do a large ceiling in longer pieces would be pretty hard, but mine is only 4' x 8' and I cut the paper in the 4' strips and managed to get them up by myself without help. It looks great, just how I imagined it would. Be sure you lay your strips on the floor and line everything up before you make any cuts; write on the back of each sheet the order they go in and which direction it will run. When trimming your edges once it's hung, this paper tends to rip easily after it's wet with glue so use a super sharp knife and go real slow. The old sheetrock repairs and old light fixture areas of this room are completely covered and no sign of any irregularities now. Great paper." —RubyMcFarland

Get it from Amazon for $27.67.

8. A geometric print blue and gold metallic RoomMates peel-and-stick wallpaper that manages to be both subtle and bold at the same time.

Amazon

Comes in a 20.5" x 16.5' roll that covers up to 28.18 sq. ft. The print repeats every 20.5".

Promising review: "So easy to use: cut, peel, stick, smooth, trim. The only part that took a little bit longer than expected was finding where the pattern matched up so that my two pieces would look cohesive. Paper seems thicker than contact paper. The paper is easy to remove and allows for mistakes if placed unevenly and in the wrong spot. It also trims very easily on the edges of the wall using a straight edge. I would use a wallpaper smoother to get the paper smooth on the wall." —(sigh) gotta buy!

Get it from Amazon for $29.74+ (available in three colors).

9. A super pretty HaokHome peel-and-stick floral wallpaper designed in a perfectly bold color palette to help any accent wall really pop.

Amazon

The smallest roll covers up to 14.5 sq. ft.

Promising review: "Looks absolutely beautiful in my baby's room! Difficult to line up at first but after the first few we got the hang of it. I will say the pattern is very forgiving. Some areas didn't line up perfectly but you can't tell at all. It was definitely worth the frustration because I'm so happy with the finished product." —Julie

Get it from Amazon for $12.84+ (available in three roll sizes and with a white background).

10. A roll of The Novogratz x Tempaper Painted Lips wallpaper so you can seal your room with a kiss. It's an easily removable wallpaper that takes super low effort to apply. Just peel away the backing to expose the water-based adhesive, press it onto a smooth surface (it works best when applied to surfaces that have been primed and painted with a satin or semi-gloss finish), and align the pattern from panel to panel.

The Novogratz

Available in 20.5" W x 16.5' L rolls that cover about 28 sq. ft.

Get it from The Novogratz for $40 a roll.

11. A textured RoomMates faux grasscloth peel-and-stick wallpaper for that subtle and luxurious tropical vibe you've been looking for.

Amazon

Each roll is 20. 5" wide x 16.5' and can cover up to 28.18 square feet.

Promising review: "This stuff looks great! My only issue with this particular pattern was that the repeat is 20 1/2". I did a small bathroom wall and didn't have enough if I were to match up the pattern. I guess I was being cheap. I figured it's meant to look like natural grass paper and that wouldn't repeat anyway. I used the entire roll on a small 52"w x 88"h wall. This wall also had a window 28 1/2"w x 42 1/2"h. It was easy to put up. Make sure you have a sharp razor blade for trimming the edges. I used a credit card to scrape out the bubbles. They came out easily. This stuff is very forgiving. You can remove it and restick it with no problems. This would also make a great shelf liner." —Bacon Jonnie's

Get it from Amazon for $26.32+ (available in eight color options).

Amazon

Promising review: "I love the texture and thickness of this paper. It sticks easily, but if you made a mistake lining things up you can pull it up and start over without losing the integrity of the adhesion. I love this contact paper!" —ADE

Promising review: "I've tried other brands of this and I'm telling you this one is the best. It actually sticks to my wall. It wipes off better and looks nicer. I have another brand on my wall that I started with and had to use spray adhesive to get it to stay up. After I ran out, I ordered this and I've never put anything on it. I'm very happy and my son's city is complete. :0)" —J. jernigan

Amazon

Comes on a 20.5" x 18' roll and covers about 30.75 sq. ft.

Promising review: "This wallpaper is not sticky, it is tacky. That’s what allows it to be removed without damaging the wall. I was able to reposition it once or twice on a freshly painted eggshell finish wall. I think people who are having issues with it falling down are either putting it on flat paint or a dirty wall. Make sure to wash off your wall before trying to put this up otherwise it will just stick to the dust then fall off. I found the pattern easy to line up, it repeats perfectly. The background of the print almost makes it look like it is made from linen. I’m very happy with this wallpaper and have gotten so many compliments on it!" —C. Schaffer

Get it from Amazon for $30.30+ (available in two colors).

20. A super chic green and floral peel-and-stick wallpaper you will totally ap-peach-iate in your home.

Amazon

The smallest roll comes in 17.7" x 78.7" and covers about 9.7 sq. ft.

Promising review: "This paper looks great in my apartment entryway! I was able to do it myself by using painter's tape to line it up and then pulling the backing off. It’s a little stretchy so if I pulled too hard it didn’t perfectly line up which I’m fine with but if you’re a perfectionist it might drive you crazy. Love it and I’m very happy with how it turned out." —Michelle T.

Get it from Amazon for $6.56+ (available in four sizes).

21. An easily installed NuWallpaper brick print peel-and-stick wallpaper because some of us aren't lucky enough to find that exposed brick wall type of apartment and have to find other ways to make it happen.

Amazon

Comes in a 20.5" x 18' roll.

Promising review: "I'm very happy with this! The wall I put it on is about 9 ft. wide-by-8 ft. high, there is one window, and my baseboards are about 6 inches high — I ordered three rolls but only used two (with waste). Our house is VERY old so the walls are not flat and the corners are not an even 45 degrees, that's why I had more waste than I think I would have in a newer home. I did not have trouble matching the pattern (I recommend matching up the side from top to bottom then smoothing it out from there rather than going from top to bottom). I was able to cut around the windows with ease; repositioning was easy. It's a little awkward at first, but once you get the first piece up it the rest is easy. I did this myself and it took about two and half hours (it took about 40 minutes just to get started because our walls are so wonky, so I imagine a flat plumb wall would be much faster). I used a flat plastic paper-smoothing tool to smooth it out as well as the palms of my hands. I wouldn't hesitate to use this product again." —honesty

Get it from Amazon for $25.61+ (available in four colors).

22. A whimsical removable woodland animal wallpaper so you can really feel like you're living in a fairytale.

Promising review: "Great quality. The paper is a good weight, though when I bought it I thought it was peel and stick, you actually do have to paste the walls. Turned out not to be too bad. Either way, the outcome was great, it's really cute. Does not shrink after drying." —Kristin B.

Get it from Overstock for $65.

Promising review: "Easy to work with and looks amazing. Very happy with the product and my project. I put a thin coat of polyutherane, but I don't think it needs it since the paper seems very sturdy and the gloss finish is nice. I have already ordered two more rolls to finish my vanity and cover my drawers." —Johanna Calderon
