Stenciled Wall vs. Wallpaper

When decorating a home, sometimes you may run into a wall that just needs a little extra love. Adding color and pattern as an accent wall or even to a whole room can be such an awesome way to add some personality to a room. Sometimes a way to do this is to add some wallpaper but today we are going to talk about the amazing, cost effective, fun DIY alternative: Stenciling!

Some wallpapers can get SUPER pricey after getting all the rolls you need to fit the space and it also can just be a paint to put up. Not only is the installation of the wallpaper a lot but also taking it down is such a burden if you ever decide to change up the look of the room!
