Lots of fads come back into style eventually. The bell bottom jeans of the 60s and early 70s made a comeback in the mid-1990s. Some of the biggest hit songs of 2013 and 2014 had a very similar sound to late 70s disco. House decorating trends return, also, and every seasoned House Painter Chappaqua NY has seen them all. The contractors at all House Painting Companies can agree that wallpaper will never come back into style.
Wallpaper is a Perennial Eyesore
Genesis Pro Painting is an Award winning painting & restoration company. Besides painting interior and exterior walls, they also make old wooden decks look new again. They cannot, however, make wallpaper look new. That is because wallpaper made rooms look old even when it was new. It had never given a room a cheery appearance, even in the 1950s, when it was at the height of fashion. “The Yellow Wallpaper” is a famous short story by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. The story is about a mentally ill woman confined to her room. The yellow wallpaper in the room makes the woman’s paranoia worse. The surprising thing is that there is only one famous story where wallpaper is something disturbing and scary.
Give Your House a Cheerful, Refreshing Look
What if you want more than one color on the walls? There are alternatives to wallpaper. A House Painter Chappaqua NY can do more than just paint solid colors. If you want designs on the part of the wall, the house painter can use stencils. Stencils can be the source of borders around the upper edge of the wall. They can also be cheery, colorful designs that cascade diagonally or burst forth from the middle of the wall. Wallpaper, on the other hand, just gives you a repeating pattern.
Wall stencils are a tasteful, versatile choice for your kitchen or living room.
