Wallpapering alcoves

    Hi , I'm wallpapering two alcoves in a sitting room. The wallpaper has a drop pattern which I believe is best to centre on a wall. The alcoves are only 17cm wider than 2 rolls of wallpaper. If I centre the 2 rolls on the alcove I will have a narrow strip either side of the 2 full width rolls. Also I could move the two rolls off centre and have a slightly wider strip on one side only. My question is will it look better with A)centred with two full width rolls and two equal width narrow strips on each side? or B)Should I put on two full width rolls and one slightly wider strip on one side only ?
    thanks!

    Cut three lengths of paper. Centre the first two and cut the third length of paper in half. One side of paper on the left hand side and the other half will fit on the right hand side.
