Design File: Big, Beautiful Bold Wallpaper Patterns that will Totally Make the Room

• By Nancy Mitchell

Wallpaper's been making a bit of a comeback in the past few years, which has resulted in an explosion of new designs, many of which are breathtakingly beautiful. I've rounded up 11 of my favorites here. A few of them are quite pricey, but the good news is that with one of these on the walls, you won't have to worry much about the rest of the room — since no one will be able to look at anything else.
