Admit it – a mention of wallpaper, and the first place you think of to buy it probably isn’t Wilko.
But it’s honestly worth a look. They’ve got a good range of wallpaper options available, especially online, and their prices are generally affordable (you’ll spot the odd designer wallpaper at a designer price).
The small catch is that some papers come with a minimum order requirement of two rolls. But as it’s always good to ensure patterns and colours match up well, this shouldn’t be too much of an issue.
Here’s a small glimpse into their offerings of funky and affordable contemporary wallpapers.

Oh, I love the library wallpaper. I was looking for some inspirations for walls on the basement. Forget painting them. Thank you!
I love the first one. It’s so cool!
Ha ha! I love the dog one! x
Mad Dogs and Aliens are fab!! Nice picks Rachel x
I’m not sure I’ve ever been in to a Wilko. Cool choice, though. I love the dog one. I actually use wallpaper for craft projects with my little boys and they would adore that one, too.
What a great group of wallpapers to choose from, they are very funky and not what I expect from Wilko!
I like the library wallpaper, never would have thought of going to Wilko! X
oh I am all about the conics!
The Alien Crowd would work well in a kids room or used behind a kids bookshelf – fun!
oh the comic wallpaper, such a great price, would be great for a kids room
Ooh great selection, particularly love those mad dogs!
Would never have thought you could find wallpapers like these in Wilko. The first one is without doubt my favourite. Would be a brilliant talking point if used in a guest bathroom.
oh the comic wallpaper, such a great idea
