Designer wallpapers, like designer bathroom fixtures, have price tags that might not fit into your &#8216;everyday&#8217; budget.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But if money is no object, you can certainly find some superb designs out there, including large wall murals of scenes or objects.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Just like Marmite<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Some patterns are just like Marmite \u2013 you love them, or hate them. \u00a0Tartan and plaid designs are prime examples of this.<\/p>\n<p>Tartan wallpaper creates a classic or vintage look, so would work well with claw-footed freestanding baths. <a href=\"http:\/\/decoratingfiles.com\/2013\/11\/decorating-with-plaid\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Tartan and plaid<\/a> also add a degree of masculinity to a room. Often it will conjure the feeling of a gentleman&#8217;s club.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe you have a separate male and female bathroom in your home? This design could be perfect for the men in the family, while Mum has a dedicated pamper room elsewhere?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>In the twist of a teardrop<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Often described as &#8216;twisted teardrops&#8217;; Paisley patterns originated from Iran and India. This style was later reproduced in the town of Paisley in Scotland; hence its name.<\/p>\n<p>Again Paisley patterned wallpapers and fabrics have a more classic appeal with an exotic edge. Although the less colourful, larger-patterned versions also lend themselves to more contemporary styled bathrooms.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This one, Rajapur by\u00a0Cole &amp; Son, has a large pattern and is delicately coloured.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2262\" style=\"width: 398px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2262\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-2262 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.livinghouse.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/rajapur1-1.jpg\" alt=\"Rajapur\" width=\"388\" height=\"503\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.livinghouse.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/rajapur1-1.jpg 647w, https:\/\/www.livinghouse.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/rajapur1-1-232x300.jpg 232w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 388px) 100vw, 388px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2262\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wallpaperdirect.com\/products\/cole-son\/rajapur\/93460\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Wallpaper Direct<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Toile de Jouy<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Another traditional design; usually depicting intricate, pastoral scenes.\u00a0It has been continually produced ever since, but gone through periods high and low popularity.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2260\" style=\"width: 571px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2260\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-2260 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.livinghouse.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/veneto-villandry-1.jpg\" alt=\"Veneto &amp; Villandry\" width=\"561\" height=\"362\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.livinghouse.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/veneto-villandry-1.jpg 1298w, https:\/\/www.livinghouse.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/veneto-villandry-1-300x193.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.livinghouse.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/veneto-villandry-1-768x495.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.livinghouse.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/veneto-villandry-1-1024x660.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 561px) 100vw, 561px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2260\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wallpaperdirect.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Wallpaper Direct<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In recent years modern adaptations of toile designs have been produced which might have an easier fit with more modern bath fixtures.
