Wallpaper Borders

Hi Folks,

Been looking for borders now for the past week or so in South Dublin. Been to Homebase, Woodies, Stillorgan Decor no joy at all with getting borders only a small selection available and mainly for living room whereas I'm looking for a bedroom.

Are borders old fasioned now? I've already painted (should have checked before hand!) so now I just have a gap on the middle of the walls.

Any suggestions on where to buy borders, in store or on the net, or another alternative would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Eoin

personally i think they look old fashioned but they may work in your house. how about a dado rail (that is probably spelt wrong) instead.

woodies have some borders

Wigedors and the likes of Gerry Keanes in the Dublin City Centre (Talbot Street).

Borders are getting increasingly difficult to find off-the-shelf but some fabric / wallpaper ranges have borders to match so check out fabric stores that stock books of fabrics / wallpaper that you order from.

In general borders are deeply unfaashionable in Europe except at the lower end of the market. However North American companies still have a reasonable selection eg Ralph Lauren, Thibaut etc. PM me if have a very specific requirement

Look for a nice paper with vertical stripes or design and cut your own, you can cut what ever with you want

They are no longer fashionable, can't really get them any more.:):)
