Hello AT,
I have a long (18 foot) hallway that runs down the middle of my 1000 square foot bungalow. I've wallpapered one side of the hallway and the end wall with Mibo Clacket Lane Wallpaper. The other side of the hall is a color called "Elephant Breath' by Farrow and Ball, it's a beigy/taupe color. Should I wallpaper both sides of the hall, or leave it as it is?

-Madeline, we think you should wallpaper both sides, looks great! Anyone have any suggestions?

FInd something youlike and we will create a wild custom design for you at www.TheWallpaperMaker.com
Paper the bottom of the painted wall....chair-rail height. Nail some trim as a chair rail on that wall only.
I'd actually remove the wallpaper from the end wall. When you stand where you took the picture, the pattern close to you looks larger because it's right in front of you.........but the far-away pattern at the end looks TINY, so the hall looks really long and narrow. Painting that end wall will help shorten the space and "widen" the hall, IMO.
Hang a big piece of art on the end wall. You could even ENLARGE a flower (or whatever it is) from your wallpaper and paint that on the end wall.
You could also do the chair-rail thing to the end wall, with the paper only at the bottom.
