If your not so keen on my pattern choices from this website, then it is certainly worth having a look at the other cuties!
~Geometric~
Now , Personally, with Geometric Print, you have to be very careful what you match it with and how you use it! Its one of the trickier wallpapers to design with! But hey were all up for a challenge, aren't we?
This is a cutie, it is elegant and sophisticated, but the vibrant blue also shouts bright and fun!

How do i use colour most effectively?
I divide colour into two main categories
~ Neutral and Pastels.
~Bright Bold Statement colours.
With Neutrals and Pastels, paint all your walls the same colour, and add the bursts of flavour through other pieces. Maybe a Big statement piece ~Check out my article for more!
Bright Bolf Statement Colours:
Be very careful! Painting all your bedroom walls a bright vibrant colour is the same as pasting a bold wallpaper over all the walls!
1.Lets use the colour Red as an example. When applying red to your room, only add it to half the walls in the room. So if you had 4 main walls , add it to two of them, the other two splash on a neutral colour! You can have the wall corresponding or beside each other, which ever you think is best, i couldn't say my opinion without seeing the room myself!
This house has chosen to use red as a feature wall!
OR
Some chose to combine both, and have neutral furnishing, and not all the walls painted. It really depends on the room, and what you are trying to achieve!
