An easy way to change the look of a room is through the use of wallpaper border. But that's only the beginning. Here are some suggestions from DIY decorating expert Nancy Golden for making a wallpaper border stand out.
- Consider using paint to make a contrasting or coordinating strip underneath the border.
- Before installing your border, select a color that stands out against your wall color, and paint a strip that is 4 to 6 inches wider than your border.
- Make certain that the paint is dry before hanging the border, and take time to center the border properly on the painted strip.
- Another idea is to use some pre-made narrow molding. Place the molding above or below your border -- or both -- making certain that the molding covers the edges of the wallpaper.
