we chose monkey wallpaper for our kitchen remodel.

the woman who bought our house said the wallpaper would remain and she couldn’t wait to have coffee every morning with the monkeys.

the end.

start your day, cook together, and end the evening with your favorite critter. it’s easy to do with wallpaper!

with a slew of installation options from diy to professional recommended, the most difficult part is going to be deciding your pattern from all the wonderful choices.

we chose these friendly monkeys whom proved to be excellent company over the course of ten years.

  • have some fun and a sense of humor while appearing no-nonsense at first glance. the monkey wallpaper we used looks like it could have been original to our former 1910 period home. the chinoiserie motif rewards the viewer when they pay closer attention.

  • select easy clean vinyl for areas like kitchens: beer kegs will unexpectedly tap out erupting foam all over a wall, spaghetti sauce has unbelievable splattering range even when simmering, and sometimes life just gets messy.

  • afraid of commitment in a larger space? start small and add some fun to a closet, toilet room, even a pantry back wall. we rehomed a few monkeys to our new abode with leftover wallpaper from our original project.

if you decide to expand your horizons to a bigger area, order all the wallpaper you’ll need at the same time. products are discontinued regularly, and different product runs can have color and (surprise!) unanticipated yet visible texture differences.

find wallpaper suitable for your comfort level from big box stores, online + brick-and-mortar specialty boutiques, or custom make your own through interactive marketplaces like spoonflower.
