I have got this wallpaper for 1 wall of my stairs

http://www.wallpaperdirect.co.uk/products/harlequin/azita/68876

I am getting new carpet - thinking of getting beige - have laminate on hall floor.


I need help with choosing a colour (wallpaper) for the rest of the walls round the stairs and at the bottom of the hall please.:thumbsup:

maybe the pale background colour would be nice if you can find a match then the colour on the pattern will be the focal point. iyswim

the background is silver - so a bit difficult (well for me) to match.

I'm so used to buying everything online it will be a novelty to actually go to the shops and pick up the samples!!
