OMG. That would be like living inside a fibroid tumor. Why not use grasscloth? I don't mind that in a 30's or 40's bathroom or sitting room.
Wallpaper is hideous for any place I would live, but for what I do, it is fantastic. We use it all the time. My favorite is flocked ****. Awesome. I did an old West saloon once in whorehouse red flocked wallpaper. With Gold highlights. So damned fun.
You should have seen the wallpaper in the Ambassador Hotel in LA. The Cocoanut Grove...staggering. Metallic AND flocked. In Sammy Davis Jr.'s suite there was this stuff....black, silver, and purple...geometric ! With raised flocked felt stripes. Priceless.
