General FAQ's
You can order my designs on wallpaper, fabric, and a wide range of home décor items, think cushions, curtains, bedding, and blankets. Wallpaper is available directly here in my shop. For fabric and home décor, I’ll direct you to my Spoonflower shop, where you’ll find all the different bases, weights, and sizes.
Yes, and I can’t recommend it highly enough, especially for wallpaper! Ordering a wallpaper sample is the best way to see the true colour, texture, and finish in your own space and lighting before you commit to full rolls. Every room is different, and screens can’t always capture the subtleties of a design. Samples help you feel confident in your choice and avoid surprises.
Fabric samples are also available and helpful, especially if you want to check the material’s feel and drape.
Absolutely! Whilst I’m not a professional interior designer, I’m always happy to offer friendly, practical advice based on my experience as a surface pattern designer. If you’re unsure about which pattern, colour, or wallpaper type might suit your space, just send me a message with your ideas or photos. I can help you narrow down options, suggest what’s worked well for other customers, and guide you towards a choice you’ll love.

Absolutely, and I highly recommend it! Ordering a sample lets you see the true colour, texture, and finish in your own space and lighting before you commit to full rolls. It’s the best way to ensure you’ll love the result.
Measure the height and width of each wall you want to cover, then multiply to get the total area. Always add a little extra for pattern matching and trimming. If you need help, just ask—I’m happy to assist with calculations.
Each wallpaper product listing includes coverage details per roll. Once you have your wall measurements, you can check how many rolls you’ll need based on the repeat and roll size. If you’re unsure, send me your wall dimensions and I’ll help you work it out.
Yes! I offer free colour tweaks and rescaling for most designs. Just send me the design link and your preferred colour (HEX code, paint swatch, or inspiration photo) and scale (choose from 24”, 12”, 8”, or 6” repeats). For more complex changes (like altering the motif), just get in touch and I’ll let you know what’s possible.
Ye, Peel & Stick wallpaper is designed for renters and is fully removable without damaging walls (as long as they’re properly primed or painted). Always check with your landlord and do a patch test if you’re unsure.
Traditional wallpaper is best for medium-moisture areas like kitchens, bathrooms, or utility room, with Vinyl being a good alternative. Peel & Stick and Pre-pasted are not recommended for steamy or splash-prone spaces.
Each wallpaper type has its own installation method. You’ll find detailed instructions and how-to videos on my production partners website.
Peel & Stick | Pre-pasted | Traditional | Vinyl | Grasscloth
Most wallpapers can be gently wiped with a damp cloth—no harsh cleaners. Vinyl wallpaper is scrubbable. Grasscloth should only be dusted with a soft cloth or brush.
Yes! Peel & Stick and Pre-pasted wallpapers are designed to be removable. Traditional and vinyl wallpapers can also be removed, but may require more effort. Always follow the removal instructions for best results.
