Choose wallpaper for the bedroom – ten tips
The bedroom should be your oasis where you relax and sleep well - and shut out the noise of the outside world. Here we give tips on bedroom wallpapers that make your bedroom harmonious and provide a good night's sleep.
Texdecor's Eos Allure acoustic wallpaper brings a luxurious hotel atmosphere to the bedroom.
When you are wallpapering a bedroom, there are many factors to consider. The wallpaper should be harmonious and have a soothing pattern, and the colors should be calm and relaxing. In the bedroom, you want to unwind from the day's stress and recharge for new challenges the following day.
1. Blue bedroom wallpapers create harmony
Blue wallpapers are a safe choice for the bedroom if you want a good night's sleep. Blue creates a sense of security and a relaxed atmosphere. All shades of blue are calming, but if the room is small, it is better to choose a lighter wallpaper as dark colors make the room appear smaller.

Additionally, green is said to combat nightmares, and we all wish for a good sleep in the bedroom.
