Need a Small Bit of Wallpaper

As I am a new member I would like to say hello to everybody....and my name is Tommy and I live in Glasgow. My hobbies are Outdoor Bowls, Snooker,and Computers. But I have a decorating problem that I can't seem to solve.

Just recently I removed a gas fire from my living room wall. But now I am left with a gap in my wallpaper of about (25 in x 21 in) which I have to blend in with the exact same wallpaper.

But the problem I have is I can't get this wallpaper anywhere, as I am led to believe it has been discontinued.

And there is no way I am going to go through the experience of repapering my whole livingroom, for a small gap.

I have very little information on my original wallpaper, but I have took a photo of it...which I will sent for posting with this request. I am willing to pay for the paper and postage if anybody has any lying around or any info on where I can get it.

I was thinking of just putting and item in front of the gap,but my wife does not want that.

Hope somebody can help once they have seen my wallpaper photo. The wallpaper in question is a thick plain white patterned wallpaper and I think they call it a CLASSIC FRESCO?

Thanks in advance
Tommy from Glasgow

Go to the website Ask.com formally askjeeves.com and type in wallpaper and see what comes up for you to do research with. If that doesn't work,have no clue what to tell you,unless you check with a local antique dealer. Good luck

Have you thought about rewallpapering or painting just one wall with something coordinating?

you can search discontinued wallpaper here: http://www.ihdg.com/default.asp

I used the middle search box to look for any white wall paper and used the search word embossed.

It turned up several pages of results.

They also have a "contact" form if you can't find what you are looking for http://www.ihdg.com/contact/ I would suggest sending them a link to your post here so they can see the picture and let you know if they have what you need. This is the direct link to the pic... http://www.thriftyfun.com/images/articles/wallpapertommy.jpg

good luck!
