Irregular Dots - Two Ways
No matter what style you choose, you can’t go wrong! The Irregular Dot decals come on a sheet—think giant sticker sheet, like when you were a kid. Once you’ve picked the destination for your dots, just peel and stick! And because the dots themselves are irregular, the spacing doesn’t have to be perfect (unless you really want it to be). On that note, the dots are actually easy to peel off and reposition where you like!
Learn moreMore Than Wallpaper
At Urbanwalls, one of our favorite things is when we get to use our decals in completely fresh, new, outside-of-the-box ways. Recently, Real Weddings featured a fun little project we did for a truly inspired wedding shoot. Wallpaper? Not just for your walls anymore. The unique, removable quality to our wallpapers, murals, and decals allows them to be used easily for one-off events—all without damaging the space (or your bank account)! For this particular shoot, we used our Primrose Wallpaper as a backdrop for the stylized bar, AND as a completely original aisle runner. To quote Real Weddings, “The clean line drawings help to maintain a dainty look throughout the design, while also feeling modern and minimalist.” We couldn’t agree more! Our Primrose Wallpaper features a pattern of cascading, sketched primroses and buds in shades of cream. The design is accented in a canvas of soft neutrals and splashes of muted blushes and greens, highlighted by delicate leaf sprigs. Hand-painted by our very own artist Mary Clare Wilkie, the Primrose paper captures a clean, garden aesthetic—the perfect look for a bright and modern wedding. A large shout to all of the vendors that made this shoot possible!

Learn moreLemon Decals Featured on Style At Home
When life gives you lemons…use them as wallpaper, of course! Way back in 2017, we worked with blogger and event planner extraordinaire Monika Hibbs to install our Lemon Decals in her kids’ playroom. It was dreamy—and apparently we weren’t the only ones who thought so, because Style at Home featured our decals alongside Monika’s gorgeous home designs! Featured in conjunction with Monika’s whitewashed, seashore inspired palette, our little Lemons made their appearance, titled as one of the “best trends ever”. We’ll take it! With 55 Lemons per decal pack, brighten up any space, year round! Take a page out of Monika’s book and space them evenly for a wallpapered effect, or arrange them in clusters for a focal point so fresh you might just start smelling lemonade.

Learn moreInexpensive Remodels: Making Moves with our Tangerines in Greens
Who doesn’t love a cheap home interior update? Autumn, the genius designer, writer, and vintage shop owner behind Make Moves renovated her food blogger friend Aleshia’s kitchen for under $500. No, you don’t need glasses. You read that number correctly. Using our Tangerines in Greens peel-and-stick, removable decals, Autumn brought dimension and color behind Aleshia’s open shelving. “[The decals were] definitely the jumping off point for this kitchen design,” Autumn disclosed on her blog. “I knew from the get-go I wanted to do something interesting behind [Aleshia’s] open shelves, but as soon as I found these peel-and-stick tangerine wall decals, I was sold. I mean COMMON—they MAKE this space.” We think the whole kitchen looks pretty amazing, but we do love that we got to be such a huge part of the remodel! Autumn and Aleshia used four packs of our Tangerines in Greens to create the design. Yep, even with four packs, and all their other fun purchases, they still managed to come in at budget! No way traditional wallpaper could give you that perk. Add some sunny, vintage glassware, a new color scheme, and some brass accents and you have yourself a brand new space! Not all redesigns have to be big-time expensive to have a big-time effect. Do you have a remodel you’d like to share? We’d love to see it! Tag us on Instagram at @urbanwalls. Let’s celebrate that creativity.
