To be honest I was not that impressed with this wallpaper when I saw it online, but I ordered it anyway because I liked the color way and the scale fit what I was looking for. But I feel in love with it when the sample arrived, I had ten samples and though each of them was pretty, I kept going back to this one. Though non woven, it still looks like it is fabric, which gives the room such a luxurious feel! It is fun and interesting in my 9 year olds room, but something he can easily grow with as he gets older.
