That floral wallpaper is cute, but I just can't imagine making that kind of commitment when I would probably tire of the floral in a short while. I'm not a huge floral fan to begin with so whenever I get the floral bug I tend to incorporate it in with throw pillows or other items that can be given to Goodwill when I get sick of them!

Sorry, but you can put whatever modern furniture you want in that room and that wallpaper is still frump.

I'm torn between finding it charming on one hand and overly precious on the other....

I'm not a fan of floral, but this one is not bad actually but still, I'd not want it really.

I actually quite like the flower wallpaper! It would definitely be wrong in a windowless room with very dark, serious looking furniture, but the mood and colors are definitely tongue-in-cheek here. Also, if I am not mistaken, it looks like the wallpaper was mounted on something set inside of a very large black frame. How clever is that?! They get the look of wallpaper with the versatility of hanging a picture. So when you get tired of the wallpaper, you just toss it, or you just paper over it. I think I'm going to try something like this...
