When it comes to home improvements, wallpaper has not gone out of fashion, an expert has pointed out.
The
Wallpaperdirect assistant Jan Williams has outlined some of the wallpaper trends that currently seem to be popular among UK consumers.
She stated: "At the moment metallics are quite big, flock has made a huge comeback in the last 18 months."
Ms Williams added: "Themes are big, [especially in] some of the children's papers that are coming through."
Meanwhile, when it comes to wallpaper colours, the expert went on to say that lime shades and shocking shades of pink are both proving to be fairly popular.
Those looking to spruce up their homes with the use of wallpaper and items like
roller blinds may also be interested to note recent Halifax research.
The firm has suggested that the last year has seen home improvers spend an average of £6,362 on their properties.
