Laundry Room Wallpaper

Small Laundry Room Wallpaper With Big Personality

Laundry room wallpaper is a wall covering chosen for a small, hard-working space, usually in a bright, wipeable pattern. Think stripes, small florals, checks and fruit prints. Cheerful, not precious.

Giffywalls prints every mural to the exact size of your wall. We print more of these than people expect. The reason is simple. It is the smallest room in most houses, so one wall changes the whole feel of it.

Why Bother Papering a Laundry Room?

Because you stand in it more than you think. A blank white box makes a dull chore duller. A pattern on the wall behind the machines gives you something to look at. It costs one small wall of paper. The lift in mood is out of proportion to the effort.

There is a practical side too. Laundry rooms are usually small and windowless. A light, busy print bounces what light there is and hides scuffs at the same time.

Where the Paper Goes

Behind the Machines

This is the classic spot. The wall above and behind the washer and dryer is usually clear. Paper it and the machines stop being the main event. Keep the pattern small so it still reads behind the units.

The Ceiling

Sounds odd. Looks great. In a tiny windowless room, a papered ceiling turns a box into a room with an idea in it. Pick something light so the space stays bright.

Inside a Closet or Nook

Many homes have a laundry closet rather than a room. Paper the back wall inside it. Open the doors and there is a small surprise. Closed, nobody knows.

Laundry Room Wallpaper Ideas That Suit the Space

Bright and simple wins here. You will find ticking stripes, gingham checks, small florals, lemons, herbs and vintage laundry motifs. Many of the best options come from our kitchen wallpaper range, since the two rooms want the same things. A soft botanical wallpaper print works well if you want calm rather than cheer. For an older-house look, try farmhouse wallpaper checks with painted cabinets.

Colors That Work in a Small Space

White and pale blue keep it clean and fresh. Soft yellow lifts a room with no window. Sage green pairs beautifully with wood counters. Navy or black works if the room is bright and you want it smart. Avoid heavy dark prints in a windowless space. They close it in fast. Test any color choice with the door shut. A small room always reads darker than you expect.

Damp, Steam and Real Life

This is the question we get most. Laundry rooms get warm and steamy. Make sure the room has an extractor or a window that opens, and keep the paper away from a wet surface. Our papers wipe clean with a damp cloth, so splashes are not a problem. Do not paper directly behind a sink without a splashback. Let the room air out after a wash and the paper will be fine for years.

Scale and Placement

Small rooms want small repeats. That is the main rule. A big scene gets swallowed by shelves, machines and doors, and you only ever see a corner of it. A tight stripe or a small floral keeps working even when half of it is hidden. Measure the clear wall, not the whole room.

Sizing, Finish and Fitting

Send us the width and height of the wall. We scale the artwork to match, so nothing lands half-cut in a corner. Choose peel and stick laundry room wallpaper for a removable wallpaper finish. It suits a small room you may want to change again. Choose paste-the-wall if the room is staying as it is. Panels arrive numbered with hanging notes in the box. Shipping is free on every order.
