Wallcoverings Blog by Mark Balkovec

Selecting Wallpaper for your home is not what it use to be. I think back to the old days when you could actually go down the street and pick up wallpaper right in the store. Everyone was stocking wallpaper back then. It made buying wallpaper easy and fun. The old days I speak of was only 5 years ago. Pittsburgh and its surrounding areas has really sufferd from online wallcovering sales. Many major decorating stores have drifted away, Even Home Depot shut down there wallpaper department. Lowes still sells wallpaper but the selection is limited. Sherwin Williams is still and always has been there for the wallcovering buisiness. They still have a wide selection of books to choose from. Will the future of Wallcoverings be online wallpaper merchants? I hope not, but it makes sense. Buying wallpaper online has been around for longer than most know. I have several online stores listed at my website Wallcoveringvideos.com, But I would suggest you seek out a merchant in your area that carries wallcovering books first. Looking through a book of wallcovering patterns is and always has been the way to go. You can feel the material and see the thickness and texture. Looking for wallpaper online cannot compare to looking through a wallcovering book. If you are going to buy online make sure you find out all of their return and cancellation policys as well as damaged goods return. Best of luck.
