With the right wallpaper, color scheme, and room feel, you can turn your space into a cozy retreat—like stepping into a charming country inn right in your own home.

Whether you love a touch of vintage charm or something fresh and timeless, a few thoughtful bedroom wallpaper ideas can bring new life to your personal space and make it a place you truly love to unwind in.

3 Bedroom Wallpaper Ideas

Welcome to our cozy escape in the Green Mountains of Vermont, where winter has been all about home improvements—and lots of them!

It all started with a fresh coat of paint for our open floor plan, followed by a charming four-season sunroom makeover.

And now?

We’re giving our bedroom walls some love with three beautiful wallpaper designs—one for our master bedroom and two guest bedrooms, all tied together with a lovely bathroom suite.

It’s a great way to add character, warmth, and that old-country-inn charm to our home!

What are the best cozy bedroom wallpaper design ideas?

I wanted our living space to feel like a charming Vermont country inn, where every bedroom invites you to curl up and stay awhile.

To bring that vision to life, I brightened the trim with Benjamin Moore’s Chantilly Lace White and wrapped the entire room in wallpaper with an old-fashioned yet stylish vibe.

Whether you love different styles—romantic florals, vintage toile, or classic stripes—wallpaper is a great way to turn any space into a stylish sanctuary that feels like a retreat from the everyday.

Bedroom Design

What is a Vermont Country Inn-style bedroom?

Well, actually, I made it up…

But I think it should be an official interior design style, right?

To me, it means old-fashioned, cozy, and quaint, with time-honored wallpaper, antique beds, luxurious blankets and pillows, squeaky wood floors, and vintage accents all around.

The smell of blueberry muffins, local Vermont maple syrup, and coffee brewing in the morning.

There is snow falling outside, and the sounds of a snow plow clearing the roads for the skiers to make it up to the mountains.

Have you transported yourself there yet?

If you haven’t, you may want to check out some of these Vermont Inns and maybe even schedule a visit. Vermont is beautiful in every season!

Compliments to our neighboring friends over at The Grafton Inn for these exquisite and inspiring interior wallpaper bedroom designs.

Where to Begin with the Right Wallpaper?

I’ll be honest—I’ve longed for wallpaper in my home for years, but somehow, I was always talked out of it.

You know the usual reasons:
    •    Wallpaper makes it harder to sell a home.
    •    It’s a massive project.
    •    Removal is a disaster.
    •    It’s outdated and not in style.

But guess what? I love every bit of it, and this time, I’m going for it!

Wallpaper isn’t just a throwback to the past—it’s a perfect choice for adding charm, personality, and warmth to a bedroom.

Whether you go for a feature wall, a full-room transformation, or removable wallpaper for an easier update, there’s a selection of bedroom wallpapers for every style.

From delicate florals to vintage toile, the right bedroom wallpaper can instantly turn a space into a cozy sanctuary, making your home feel like a charming country inn.

It’s time to embrace design wallpapers and create a bedroom that feels uniquely yours!

So many of my bedroom wallpaper ideas have stemmed from our visits to Inns throughout New England.

The photos above are from a recent visit to Basin Harbor. You may see more in this  Cottage Core Inspired by 3 Days Glamping in the Adirondacks post.

And here was our bedroom at one of my favorites, The Red Lion Inn in Stockbridge, Massachusetts.

How to choose the best wallpaper for a bedroom?

When it comes to picking the perfect wallpaper, the hardest part is simply deciding! There are just so many different wallpapers to choose from—florals, stripes, damasks, graphic patterns, and everything in between.

That’s why I’m so thrilled to be partnering with my friends at Wallpaper Direct for this cozy three-bedroom wallpaper design project.

Not only does Wallpaper Direct offer an incredible range of wallpapers, but they also make the process easy. You can request free samples before committing, which was a game-changer for me. I hung my sample options in each bedroom, lived with them for a bit, and then made my final favorite design selections.

If you’re looking to add visual interest to your space, whether with a statement graphic pattern or a soft, romantic floral, Wallpaper Direct is an excellent choice. Their pricing, quality, and selection are top-notch, and I wouldn’t hesitate to use their wallpapers for future projects!

Which wallpaper is the best for the bedroom?

The best type of wallpaper for a bedroom? That all depends on your style!

For my Vermont home, I wanted an old-fashioned country inn feel—something light, airy, and timeless. While some love the drama of dark and moody walls, I gravitate toward floral wallpaper and soft hues that create a welcoming, restful retreat.

When choosing the perfect design, think about how your color scheme plays with your space. A bold accent wall can add charm, while a delicate floral pattern can bring in a touch of nature. Consider the room’s lighting, furniture, and size—especially in a small room, where lighter tones can make the space feel bigger and cozier.

For me, it was all about finding the perfect options that complement each space’s ambiance, furniture, and natural surroundings.

Whether you love classic floral wallpaper or a bold statement print, the right type of wallpaper can completely transform your bedroom into a dreamy retreat!

My Design Wallpaper Bedroom Choices

Master Bedroom Wallpaper Ideas

The first room to get the wallpaper treatment?

Our master bedroom, of course!

I fell in love with the Floral Rococo Red wallpaper from Wallpaper Direct—a pattern that feels both timeless and bold yet still creates a cozy feel. The soft blend of colors in this striking focal point pairs beautifully with the Wedgwood Gray built-in bookshelves in our adjacent sunroom-turned-craft room.

With many windows, French doors overlooking the mountains, and a large mirrored closet, this medium-sized bedroom had plenty of natural light to balance the richness of the wallpaper. Plus, paired with our spindle canopy bed, the space could handle the drama of a larger-scale floral.

And here’s a fun trick—wallpaper like this can create an optical illusion, making a room feel both warmer and more inviting.

Thanks to our wallpaper pro, Peter, we ordered just the right amount—eight rolls, with a little left over for future projects.

Now, with this stunning floral print on the walls, our master bedroom feels like a charming, romantic retreat in a cozy Vermont country inn!

Master Bedroom Before

Every great makeover starts with a before, and let’s be honest—before photos aren’t always pretty!

Here’s our master bedroom in its stripped-down state, with just the canopy bed standing in an otherwise bare room.

Next to it, a sneak peek of the transformation to come—our Wedgwood Gray built-in bookshelves with a Wallpaper Direct’s Floral Rococo Red wallpaper sample, hinting at the cozy, vintage charm soon to fill this space.

Master Bedroom Wallpaper Day 1

Let the transformation begin!

Our wallpaper guy, Peter, kicked things off by prepping the walls—sanding them down and applying a tinted primer that matched the wallpaper. This little trick is a popular trend among pros, ensuring a flawless finish so no unexpected colors or marks peek through.

With the prep work done, it was time for the real magic—hanging the first panels!

Watching the rest of the room come to life, one section at a time was so exciting.

If you’re considering wallpaper, proper prep is the best option for a smooth, seamless look that feels like it was always meant to be there. Swipe through to see the process unfold!

It’s amazing what a little wallpaper magic can do!

After four days of sanding, priming, and carefully hanging each panel, our master bedroom is completely transformed. This wallpaper design didn’t just change the look of the space—it changed the feel of it too. The room now has so much depth that it actually appears larger than it really is, proving just how much impact the right wallpaper can have!

To enhance the cozy vintage style, I added a soft blue rug that pulls from the blues in the wallpaper, and I couldn’t resist ordering a white antique lace canopy—just like the ones at the Grafton Inn (linked above!).

It will be the perfect finishing touch for that charming country inn feel.

And let’s talk about the details—I was beyond impressed with how seamlessly the wallpaper was installed.

Every light switch and outlet blends right into the pattern, creating a perfectly polished look. Just look at that beautiful craftsmanship!

Guest Bedroom Wallpaper Design

This guest bedroom is the larger of the two and easily one of my favorites—especially with its French doors opening to the front porch and those stunning mountain views. It’s where our adult guests stay when visiting Vermont, so I wanted it to feel soft, light, and welcoming—like the kind of place you’d never want to leave.

The heart of this room is the antique four-poster bed, a special piece gifted to us by my parents when we bought this home. It had a cherished place in their Maine home for years, and now, I wanted to make it the highlight of this space.

To complement its timeless charm, I chose this blue and white Flora wallpaper from Wallpaper Direct, a pattern that feels both airy and elegant.

To tie everything together, I made sure the wallpaper selection flowed beautifully with the existing colors in our guest suite—which includes a connecting bathroom and hallway. The bathroom got a fresh coat of Benjamin Moore’s Stardew Blue with crisp Chantilly Lace White trim, a color carried through the hallway and both bedrooms.

And just like with the master, each wall was sanded, primed with a tinted base, and prepped for the wallpaper’s grand reveal.

Guest Bedroom Before & Wallpaper Work in Progress

This spacious guest bedroom came together just in time for a special visitor—my husband’s sister!

After three days of sanding, priming, and carefully hanging the wallpaper, the room was officially guest-ready for the weekend.

Perfect timing, right?

Now it’s time to hone my photography skills because capturing this beautiful blue has been a challenge! Somehow, my camera keeps seeing gray, but trust me—it’s the prettiest soft blue in person, and I absolutely love it. Stay tuned while I chase the perfect lighting to do it justice!

Small Guest Bedroom Wallpaper Design Ideas

Next up—our coziest guest bedroom! With the walls sanded and prepped, this small space is just big enough for a queen-size bed and a side table—proof that even the tiniest rooms can have big charm.

For this space, I wanted the wallpaper to do more than just decorate—I wanted it to accentuate the room size while making it feel like a cozy country cottage.

Enter Karins in Sky Blue, a soft and airy pattern that Wallpaper Direct so kindly gifted us.

It’s light, fresh, and exactly what this little nook needed!

This small guest bedroom took six rolls of wallpaper, and honestly, it might just be the most transformative space in the house. It’s amazing what a little wallpaper magic can do!

Guest Bedroom Prepped and Ready to Wallpaper

Freshly wallpapered and full of charm!

This blue floral wallpaper instantly gave this small guest bedroom an English cottage feel, bringing soft, vintage warmth to the space.

It’s not decorated just yet, but with these cozy cottage-style bedroom wallpaper ideas, it’s already the perfect retreat!

Lately, this little guest bedroom has been getting even more vintage charm!

Vintage Sleigh Bed

I recently scored the sweetest vintage sleigh bed on Facebook Marketplace and paired it with some needlepoint pictures I found at a barn sale—because what’s a cozy country inn without a few heirloom touches?

Vintage Quilts

I’m also having way too much fun swapping out quilts in soft blues and pinks, layering in that perfect mix of color and warmth. It’s still a work in progress, but every little detail is making this space feel more and more like the inviting cottage retreat I envisioned!

Each of these bedrooms still needs to be decorated. Today’s post was simply about bedroom wallpaper ideas. I hope you’ll follow along as we collect and transform these newly wallpapered bedrooms into cozy Vermont Inn-style rooms. Sign up here to follow along.

Coastal Maine Bedroom Wallpaper Ideas

We have enjoyed our bedroom wallpaper ideas in Vermont so much that we recently started to wallpaper our attic bedrooms at our home in Maine.

My theme for these guest bedrooms will be coastal vintage, and I can’t wait to share it all with you when it’s finished this spring.
