Can't you return it to where you bought it and ask for a refund. If it was expensive it might be worth asking for a refund.0

Try & find out if it contains any anti-fungicides. If it does then throw it out.Nice to save.0

If you only have one wall papered how about using some of the paper to make instant pictures for your plain walls that perfectly match your room... you could buy MDF and just cover with the left over paper or arrange it in stripes or squares with the plain wall colour paint .............. be creative ....and get pictures for next to nothing.... :T#6 of the SKI-ers Club :j

I recently re-decorated the main bedroom with a lovely duck egg blue wallpaper on the main wall and matching paint on the others. however it was quite expensive wallpaper and im left with quite a bit left over ( not a full roll or enough to do another wall) . Any OS suggestions as to what i could do with it, matching niknacks for the bedroom would be good but im so not the best at ideas.0

If you have a very plain chest of drawers then cover the front of the draws with the paper. Take off knobs, cover front, pop knobs back on! Would look nice on a white chest.
You could cover a bin or washing basket with it. Cover the top of a table. Or if you have a tray for holding bits and bobs, cover the tray with it.Living cheap in central London :rotfl:0 -
The Shabby Chic thread folk will know exactly what to do with it! They are amazing on there

Cover shoe boxes with it and use to store all your wee bits and pieces. Will sit nicely in the wardrobe, or a few piled up nicely in the corner of the room would look pretty stylish.Father Ted: Now concentrate this time, Dougal. These
(he points to some plastic cows on the table) are very small; those (pointing at some cows out of the window) are far away...

If there is a suitable pattern maybe cut a piece to frame as a picture and hang it on the plain wall to link things together..#6 of the SKI-ers Club :j
