Talk about inspiring and inexpensive, at 8.29 for a package of 12 Sharpies at Office Depot, a good idea (don't worry if you are not an artist, think stencils or projecting an image with an overhead) and a bit of your time, this could be the least expensive wallpaper you will ever install.  And truly, if you tire of it, there will not be the arduous task of removal, simply paint over it.  You'll feel little guilt in changing things up, so get those creative juices flowing and go for it! While you are at it, don't let the walls be your only canvas, fabrics, containers, furniture, the sky's the limit.
