5 Best Wallpaper Stores in Seattle (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

Wallpaper is not exactly a fast-turnover product, so most of the wallpaper stores in Seattle you will find are actually paint counters, home-goods boutiques and design showrooms that carry it as one line among many. One name here has logged 643 Google reviews, more than five times any other business on this page, and that gap tells you a lot about where Seattle actually shops for this kind of thing.

Short answer: For wallpaper in Seattle, Hero Ace Hardware is the most-reviewed option at 4.5 stars across 643 reviews, useful for in-stock rolls and quick advice. For a curated, design-led selection, Watson Kennedy Fine Home (4.7, 119 reviews) and Arden Home (5.0, 29 reviews) lean toward decorator-grade patterns and custom orders, generally at a higher price point.

Hero Ace Hardware logo
#1 Overall🕑 Open 7 days

Hero Ace Hardware

4.5643 Google reviews

Hero Ace Hardware is a downtown Seattle hardware store carrying Benjamin Moore paint alongside tools, hardware and home-improvement basics, with wallpaper stocked as part of its paint-and-decorating counter. It is not a dedicated wallpaper showroom, so pattern selection runs narrower than a specialty shop, but staff can walk you to what is in stock rather than just pointing. For straightforward rolls, adhesive and tools you need today, it is a practical first stop.

What people praise

  • Staff walk customers to the product instead of just pointing
  • Carries Benjamin Moore paint alongside wallpaper and hanging supplies
  • Convenient downtown location for a same-day pickup
  • Loyal long-time customers who return for the in-person advice

Worth knowing

  • Limited parking near the downtown store
  • Selection favors general hardware over dedicated wallpaper patterns

Our take: The most-reviewed name here by a wide margin, and a sensible pick if you know your pattern or need something in stock now rather than a design consultation.

4.7119 Google reviews

Watson Kennedy Fine Home is a Seattle home-goods boutique known for a tightly curated mix of gifts, home decor and design pieces, with wallpaper among the finer goods sold in-store.

  • Strong track record on customer service, including standing behind defective items
  • A destination shop worth the visit for design-minded buyers

Worth knowing

Sherwin-Williams Commercial Paint Store

4.4112 Google reviews

Sherwin-Williams Commercial Paint Store is the trade-facing arm of the national paint brand, listed under wallpaper store on Google alongside its core business supplying paint, coatings and concrete stain to professional customers. It is built around commercial and contractor accounts rather than walk-in retail browsing, though staff do serve homeowners who come in. Reviewers consistently name individual staff members by name for color-matching help.

What people praise

  • Staff go out of their way on tricky color matches
  • Fast, friendly service for both contractors and walk-ins
  • Owner responses to every review, good or bad
  • Wide range of professional-grade coatings on hand

Worth knowing

  • Geared toward commercial accounts, so retail wallpaper selection is thin
  • Staff can be stretched thin at busy times

How we score

Every number on this page comes from public Google data pulled on the date shown, not opinion or payment. Rating is the store’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated them, measured against the others here. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.5 built on 643 reviews carries more weight than a perfect score built on a couple dozen. Recency reflects how recently people are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much does wallpaper cost in Seattle? (2026)

None of the stores on this page publish a fixed wallpaper price list, and cost depends heavily on the pattern, material (vinyl, grasscloth, mural) and whether you hire a professional installer on top of the material. Ask each store for a current quote based on your room’s square footage.

Serving Seattle and the surrounding area

These stores cover downtown Seattle, Capitol Hill and the SoDo industrial district, with several also serving the wider Seattle metro through delivery or contractor accounts. Searching for a wallpaper store near me? Each listing below has a live phone number, address and hours so you can find the closest option and check what is in stock.

What to ask before you buy wallpaper

  • Is this pattern in stock, or is it a special order with a lead time?
  • Do you offer installation, or can you recommend an installer?
  • How much extra should I order for pattern matching and waste?
  • Is the wallpaper vinyl, non-woven, or a natural material like grasscloth?
  • What is your return policy if I order the wrong amount?
  • Do you offer samples I can take home before I commit?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these wallpaper stores?

We started from businesses in Seattle carrying wallpaper with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Do any of these stores install wallpaper too?

Some, like Arden Home, work alongside interior designers who can coordinate installation. Others, like the hardware and paint stores, mainly sell materials, so ask directly about install referrals.

Why are hardware and paint stores showing up as wallpaper stores?

Wallpaper is a smaller, more design-specific category, so in most cities it is sold as one line inside a paint counter, hardware store or design showroom rather than by dedicated wallpaper-only retailers. That is what Seattle’s real Google data shows.

The bottom line

For a fast, practical purchase, Hero Ace Hardware is the safe default given its size and review base. If you want a more distinctive pattern chosen with some design guidance, Watson Kennedy or Arden Home are worth the extra visit. Either way, bring your room dimensions and ask about the return policy before you order.
