The 21 Best Places to Buy Wallpaper Online, According to Style Editors

"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."

The trend for papered walls began in the 16th century as decorative patterns from the east became an exotic fascination to western cultures. Today, wallpaper is more accessible than ever from big box stores to small artisanal brands. Whether you are looking to add a bit of texture to a room with a grasscloth wallcovering or create a twist on an iconic look, you no longer need the designer trade secrets to access a wide range of iconic wallpaper designs.

While it's easier than ever to buy wallpaper online, it's important order a swatch first to make sure the colors are what you need for your space. Consider the fact that every website has different requirements: Some will allow purchases by the square foot, while others require a minimum number of rolls to be purchased. Most importantly, always double- or triple-check the quantity you need and include overage. Pattern matching can create a lot of waste, and colors can vary in pigment if hand-printed or painted.

Here, our style and market editors share some of their favorite places to buy wallpaper online.

Chairish

From high-end designer wallpaper to vintage rolls, Chairish is an excellent source for patterned and mural wallpaper, especially if you're looking for a one-of-a-kind find.

Plus, you'll find a number of high-end brands on the site, such as Sister Parish (the brand's Dolly pattern in light green is shown here), Italian wallcoverings brand Officinarkitettura, Schumacher and more.

Tulip Ticking Stripe

Designed with a distinctly modern bent, Chasing Paper offers brightly hued wallpaper from bold florals to fine geometrics in both traditional papers and peel and stick. The brand's competitive pricing and thoughtful collaborations with artists, designers, and other creatives—such as the one from Jenni Yolo featured here—make it standout.

Faux grasscloth and matte performance vinyl are some of the brand's more unique offerings, ideal for a wide range of spaces that include playrooms and powder rooms.

Farrow & Ball

Farrow & Ball uses its richly pigmented, water-based paint to produce wallpapers at their Dorset factory, using sustainably sourced paper. Each roll is finished with a layer of glaze that creates a durable, wipeable surface that is designed to last for centuries.

The paint company prioritizes sustainability by not using vinyl in their paint, making the paper fully recyclable if you change your mind down the road.

Anthropologie

From tapestries to toile, Anthropologie's wild, wonderfully curated selection of wallcoverings is sure to impress. From House of Hackney (pictured here) to fashion brands like Lingua Franca, there's a design to delight every wallpaper enthusiast.

In addition to fun wallpaper offerings, Anthropologie has a wallpaper guide to further advise your wallpaper needs.

Lulu & Georgia

Lulu & Georgia has every room in the house covered from the playful game room to the romantic bedroom. The home-focused brand has partnered with trade brands such as Scalamandre and Morris & Co. to create more accessible options for the consumer.

Free shipping, detailed product information, and the effortless option to add wallpaper to a registry simplify the process for weekend DIY enthusiasts aiming to enhance their home's aesthetic.

Perigold

From solids to patterns, Perigold offers wallpapers from some of the most-coveted wallpaper brands including York (pictured here), Schumacher, Cole & Sons, Kravet, and Ralph Lauren.

What makes Perigold's process unique compared to other retailers is that wallpaper can be purchased by the square foot for small spaces or by the roll, making it much more practical for that little powder room or entryway.

Rifle Paper Co.

Rifle Paper Co. has partnered with storied wallpaper brand York to create brightly colored offerings in both traditional and removable wallpaper.

Fans of the brand will be pleased to discover its beloved patterns, along with new designs in the brand's synonymous style, are featured on the papers.

We especially love the brands styles for a bedroom, bathroom, or even a cozy corner.

Spoonflower, located in North Carolina, is unique in that you can upload your own design, and they will print you a custom wallpaper. They also sell other creatives' designs on their website, offering a wide selection of unique options by amateur and professional artists alike.

Every design is printed to order in three different paper bases depending on your needs: non-pasted traditional pebble, woven peel-and-stick removable, and pre-pasted removable smooth.

Graham & Brown

Graham & Brown offers a wide array of moody patterns and textured papers that add depth to any room. With a vast inventory, there is something in their collection for everyone to adore.

Even those without a ton of design knowledge can rest assured that everything offered on The Expert's website, including wallcoverings, is valuable and well worth considering.

Katie Kime

Maybe best known for fun toiles inspired by great American cities, Katie Kime has an eclectic range of wallpaper options, in both traditional and peel and stick, that deserve to be talked about.

The Texas-founded brand originally started as a printmaker's studio in 2013 and has since grown into a brand with highly sought-after designs, art and more.

1stDibs

We love 1stDibs for a lot of things—like vintage furniture we cannot get anywhere else and incredible bespoke rugs—but the unique retailer also has an exceptional selection of wallcoverings. Murals (like this incredible one from Paul Montgomery), silks and more are conveniently available on 1stDibs.

Wall Pops

For those wary of a wallpaper that lasts for forever, Wall Pops might just be the best option for you. Focused solely on peel-and-stick options, the unique brand has done fun collaborations with big names in fashion like Rachael Antonoff (pictured here), RuPaul and LoveShackFancy for fun styles that are perfect for apartments or more temporary living situations.

Backdrop Home

Backdrop is making its mark in wallpaper with some abstract styles that have the same convivial spirit as the brand's iconic paint.

Part of Schumacher's design house, Backdrop designs pull from the brand's archives and paint colors to make something truly unique.

Wallpaper Ordering Tips

While exploring our expansive collection of wallpaper offerings, there are several factors to consider:

• Make sure you order a swatch before you buy your paper to ensure that it is the color and pattern that you want.

• Measure everything to make sure you know how much wallpaper you will need. Order about 25% more wallpaper than what you've calculated to account for mistakes. You may even want to order more than that if it's a large-scale pattern.

• Order all your wallpaper at once because, like fabric and yarn, color differentiates between dye lots, and you want your entire space to have the same variations in color.

• A skilled wallpaper installer will be your best friend. While it may be tempting to try a smaller project, a professional will give you the best results.
