Wallpaper Borders for Girls

Wallpaper borders for girls are a quick and easy way to add detail and pattern to a girls' bedroom. This narrow band of decorative wallpaper is usually used at ceiling height but can be used at chair rail height as well, in place of or in addition to wood molding (never higher than 36” off the floor). They can also be used to draw attention to bedroom features such as a niche, around windows or doors, at the baseboard or on the ceiling. They are easy to install and remove so they are easy to change when your little girl becomes a teenager. Wallpaper borders are also durable and easy to clean.

Borders can be used alone or in conjunction with a mural, accent mural, Sudden Shadows, Wallies, wall stickers or appliqués for a more distinctive and custom look.

Fun n Flirty Fish wallpaper border, Butterfly Garden and Sun and Shade Border-Pink are prepasted borders. An example of a self-adhesive girls' wallpaper border is Fairy Princess Border and it has a matching appliqué Fairy Princess Appliques.

The different types of borders for girls' bedrooms are explained below:
    •    Self-adhesive-vinyl wallpaper border that has the adhesive already on the back. Easy to apply, remove and reuse.
    •    Prepasted-borders already have paste on the backing, which can be activated by soaking it in a filled water tray. The application directions typically are printed on the back of the label. The directions for each individual paper must be followed to determine proper soaking and booking time.

After receiving the wallpaper border for your girls' bedroom, select a color within the border and match the paint to it. Many of the home decorating stores can match the colors perfectly with the use of their color-matching computers; just take one of the spools with you.
