Up the Wall

WallCollection Custom Wallpaper

Those wall decals. They think they’re so clever with their cuteness and stick-to-it versatility.

Here’s something they can’t do: recreate that weekend in Positano. Or that sunset in Half Moon Bay.

But Ferm Living’s WallCollection can. The Danish company lets you upload your favorite images to create custom panorama wallpaper that comes in easy-to-apply strips. Just enter the dimensions of your walls, fork over the dough, and wait two weeks for the goods to show up at your doorstep.

Okay, so you’re no Ansel Adams. In that case you can choose from a rotating gallery of wallpaper designs by talented artists like Danish photographer Casper Balslev (his vintage car shot would look sweet in an office) or Brooklyn’s Julia Rothman (hello, Forty Flowers for the nursery).

Could the writing be on the wall for decals?
