How Influencers Are Using Peel-and-Stick Wallpaper to Create Aesthetic Workspaces

If you’ve been scrolling through Instagram, you’ve probably noticed—influencers turning their workspaces into jaw-dropping setups. But all without breaking the bank (or their lease statements). But, how?

Peel-and-stick wallpaper.

For one: those plain white walls are a thing of the past. Whether they’re filming a video or just chilling in their space, influencers are using removable wallpaper to create a stunning space that’s also big on personality.

Keep reading to learn how they’re doing it—and how you can, too.

Statement Walls

For influencers—who are shooting content day in and day out—a boring background just won’t cut it. That’s why they go for bold and artistic designs that can make the wall the focal point of the space. Think:

● Murals—Artsy designs that look like a custom wall painting

● Marble prints—Sleek and on-trend

● Botanical—For that fresh and creative energy

Take inspiration from @chelseacabrera.xox, who chose Love vs.Design’s floral toile wallpaper and popped in some quick customization to make the space feel truly hers. The influencer’s Instagram post shows an incredible Before and After, demonstrating the power of the right peel-and-stick wallpaper. She used it in her bedroom—but you can always double its use in your home office/office nook, especially if you’re hoping to create a headturning statement!

Cozy Desk Nooks

While Love vs. Design does offer peel-and-stick wallpaper for office, not every influencer has a full-fledged office space. But that’s alright when they can delineate the space with wallpaper—just in a smaller chunk.

Some choices influencers have been loving for their office space are…

● Plaid patterns—these keep the vibe sophisticated and in form while adding style

● Botanicals—for creating a relaxing but visually engaging office nook ambiance

● Herringbone—for a subtle and composed statement

By doing so, influencers are able to separate their office nooks from the rest of the living space. So, even if the office doesn’t have a room of its own, the vibe is completely different—and inspiring for working from home.

Instagrammable Bookshelves

Peel-and-stick wallpaper isn’t just for the walls. Influencers are finding new ways to add it to their workspaces, and one idea we’re loving is to spruce up their built-ins—especially the bookshelves. This is a simple trick that helps add so much depth and texture even at the back of these features!

Some influencer-approved bookshelf looks:

● Abstract wood—for a warm and rustic background

● Bold colors—to add some glam

● Vintage styles—with elegant patterns for a Parisian-style study

If you use this idea in your home, we recommend lining only the back panel of your bookshelves. This creates a chic yet subtle effect.

Faux Wall Paneling

Some influencers are really taking the game to the next level by mimicking classic wall treatments with wallpaper in their workspace. The best part? There’s no construction—or wooden panels or nails—required!

All you will need is wood-look peel-and-stick wallpaper. For the ultimate faux-paneled wall effect, you can cut it into strips. From a white wainscoting-style wallpaper to a reclaimed wood one, the options are plenty to make your space unique to yourself. This is especially a good choice if you love the rustic design style, but in a modern and welcoming way.

Personalizing Small Spaces

Influencers residing in compact studio apartments residing in compact studio apartments are finding solace in peel-and-stick wallpapers. Instead of feeling stuck with a bland workspace in a rental unit, they’re able to customize the space to their liking, and in a renter-friendly way.

Top choices are…

● Scandi neutrals—soft beiges and whites help small spaces feel airy

● Abstract line art—minimalist but chic for a modern feeling

● Bold half-wall treatments—to add drama without overpowering the space

We love how @ourmodernhome used Infinite Line Wallpaper to brighten up their small and narrow hallway—often times an element joining workspaces to the living area. It turned out to be a stunning and modern space!

Stylish Bathrooms

Many home workspaces have attached bathrooms. And influencers who are looking to add personality to these bathrooms—without retiling or painting—are resorting to peel-and-stick wallpaper. It sure makes for a quick and effective upgrade.

How influencers are using it…

● Spa-like serenity—using neutral-hued wallpaper with serene patterns

● Tropical retreat—think: palm leaves, jungle prints, etc.

We love how @homeandhallow uses Wavy Florals to add that high-end feel to her small bathroom space.
