Wallpaper might seem like a pricey, permanent ordeal—but removable wallpaper is here to flip all of your patterned-paper preconceptions. 

Peel-and-stick wallpaper has been on the rise as of late, especially popular among renters who don't want to invest that kind of cash into a temporary apartment that they'll be leaving after a few years. (Plus, it removes clean so you won't be stuck with any wall damage and security deposit withholding!)

It's also a great option for indecisive decorators (we're looking at you, Libras) who like to try out different trends and don't want to be tied down to just one print or color scheme. Removable wallpaper allows you to easily switch out your wall decor, with a maximum of style and a minimum of fuss. 

(Pro tip: Though it's easy to reposition and graciously forgiving, take your time pressing the removable wallpaper into the wall, slowly smoothing the top with your hand or a squeegee tool while unrolling the sticky backing underneath. Nothing is worse than air bubbles!) 

For super-chic removable wallpaper options that look way more expensive than they actually are, read on!

For a fresh take on florals

Floral wallpaper is a classic but to keep things looking glamorous and not granny, opt for a more graphic, modern take on flowery designs. This Love vs Design wallpaper is a beauty in this blush colorway, but our favorite part about the brand is that you can fully customize each print, from the background color to individual hues for the blooms and foliage.
