My husband and I recently bought a 115 year old farm house. It has been beautifully kept, but we wanted to add a little "something" to our formal dining room, yet still show off its old charm. We have never wallpapered before, but we took a shot anyways. I am so pleased with the results. It wasn't too difficult, just time consuming going around all the trim and windows. There is a beautiful texture to the heavy duty wallpaper, and I was surprised to find it has a little bit of sparkle in the gold! When shipped, a couple rolls were creased from the shipping process, so I called and the costumer service rep sent me replacement rolls at no additional charge. Wonderful service, beautiful wallpaper I would recommend this over and over.
