Farrow & Ball wallpaper samples

marrowgirl

Most other fabric/wallpaper companies will send free samples too. (I work for one but don't want to be inundated with freebie hunters!) You could try to google these and send an email to the sales or enquires office with an idea of what you want (i.e small scale print, colour etc).

Perfect! Just ordered some. Will be exactly what I need for a scrapbook I'm making for a friend

While I know that these samples are free somebody has to pay for them. We people who buy the product know how much their papers have gone up every time I buy the price has gone up substantially. I buy Farrow and Ball wallpaper and right now I am buying 7 rolls of paper for my bedroom at a cost of over £600 No doubt some of these increase in some way to cover all the samples cost. I spoke to them yesterday and I received a larger sample . My paper is archived so not available in my local F&B
The free samples are not meant to be used in this way and I can see why F&B are going to make a charge.
I ordered some wallpaper samples not F&B but from another web site. It said samples were £3 so I called them I was told that I just needed to email them. The £3 cost was introduced as people were using samples for everything including dolls houses.
I know what this web site is about but things like this I disapprove of No doubt I will be flamed for this but in the current climate when so many businesses are going bust ?
I got several samples from Fabric and Wallcovering and other places some I had to pay 75p for others were free but I had to pay £4. 50 for postage. I am happy to pay a small amount for the samples Designers Guild sent me a small samples and I requested a larger one. This if free if I order their paper if not they have sent me a large envelope to return it

I buy it when it is £1 in B and Q.

Wish I could find it at even a small discount! The biggest problem is that you need to be very accurate with how much you need. Order must be 3 rolls minimum so if you were even 1 strip short you have to buy 3.
Oh when I was searching I saw one or 2 on ebay but sadly not mine and not 7 rolls. Oh well enjoy the samples and I am sure all you creative people will make some lovely things!! Sorry for the earlier rant!
