Choose the Right Wallpaper with Indy Bloom Samples
Choosing wallpaper is a big decision, and ordering a sample first is the best way to feel confident before purchasing for a full wall.
At Indy Bloom, we offer wallpaper samples so you can see the design in your own space, with your lighting, and alongside your decor before committing to a larger order.
Why Order an Indy Bloom Wallpaper Sample?
Our wallpaper samples are designed to help you get a better feel for the print, scale, and color before making your final choice.
Each sample measures 8 inches by 11 inches and includes:
- A scaled-down full design preview so you can get an overall sense of how the wallpaper pattern looks across a larger wall (How many times it repeats)
- An actual-size section of the print so you can see the true scale, detail, and spacing of the design
This gives you a more complete understanding of how the wallpaper may look once installed.
We do recommend a larger scale mural and designs that you order a 2ft Panel so you can see the design better, as our samples show a smaller area. If you wish to get a feel for what a larger print looks like in your space, this will help you visualize and see more of the print.
What Samples Help You Do
See the colors in your actual space
Wallpaper can look different depending on natural light, artificial light, wall color, and surrounding decor. A sample helps you evaluate the design in your own home rather than guessing from a screen.
Understand the scale of the pattern
Some customers love a print online, then realize the motif size feels larger or smaller than expected. Seeing the actual-size section helps you make a better decision before ordering.
Test your wall surface
A sample gives you the chance to check how the wallpaper works with your wall texture and finish before installing a full order. Our samples are printed on the same substrate that the full panels come in. Choose the same paper option so you know if it will work before investing in the full panel order.
Feel more confident before you buy
Seeing the design in person helps take out a lot of the guesswork and makes it easier to choose the right print for your room.
How to Use Your Wallpaper Sample
Tape it to your wall
Place the sample in the room where you plan to install the wallpaper and look at it throughout the day.
View it in different lighting
Check the sample in morning light, afternoon light, evening light, and lamplight so you can see how the colors shift in your space.
Compare it with your decor
Hold the sample next to paint colors, bedding, curtains, rugs, furniture, or other finishes in the room to make sure everything works together.
Check your wall surface
Use the sample to help evaluate whether your wall is smooth and suitable for your chosen wallpaper material.
Our Recommendation
We always recommend ordering a sample before purchasing wallpaper for a full wall, especially if you are deciding between multiple prints or trying to coordinate with specific room finishes.
It is a simple step that can save you from ordering the wrong pattern, scale, or color direction for your space.
