However by the 1850s, affordable machine-printed wallpaper was available in towns all across souths ern Ontario. Since wallpapers in many homes were only replaced every 15 to 20 years, fashion was not a primary concern. It was quite common for people to buy bundles of wallpa- pers when traveling abroad and use it years later, or for merchants to sell wallpapers that had been printed 20 years earlier. Most 19th century wallpaper designs featured motifs and colours that are consid- ered ornate by today's standards. It was not unusual to find wallpaper with roses and lilies in a gentleman's study. However, to accommodate other tastes, you could select early 19th century Empire-style papers which featured small laurel wreaths, eagles or urns, arranged geometrically on a plain background. Decorating in the 19th century style is becoming increasingly popular, not only for century-old houses but for newer homes and apartments as well. Whether you choose to purchase reproductions of 19th century wallpapers or purchase modern interpreta- tions of earlier designs, it's a good idea to research the various heritage styles to deter- mine what would best suit your home.
