Message:
You can color the wall paper. Using paint is probably your best bet, though colored pencil may work also. To match the green of the original paper you received you may want to take a swatch to a local paint store and have them color match the green on their computer. They can then provide you with a quart of latex paint that matched the green tone. Ask them what ‘sheen’ they recommend based on the wall paper sample you give them. Either flat, eggshell or semi-gloss. You may also want to paint, or partially paint, over the ivy vine that has the green color on it. This way you will have a consistent hand re-touched look throughout the bath, not just on the portion that is different.
