Of course you can use any fancy wallpaper you want but I assumed the reason you were asking if it was "too much" was to avoid making an expenxive mistake. If you want to choose something that works vs something you like that doesn't work, that's your decision. The wallpaper is beautiful and would look lovely in a bedroom, dining room or powder room but not a den with heavy leather sofas. The wallpaper and sofas don't compliment each other. Please assert your femininity in another room--a den isn't supposed to be feminine. It would be like painting the walls pink. Find some magazines with pictures of rooms with leather sofas and notice how they've been accessorized. Do you want an honest answer to "does this dress make my butt look big" or are you going to wear the dress no matter?

First of all thank you so much fr your response! It's a great sized living room which was a major factor in the purchase. I was actually looking looking at wallpaper which was very similar to what you describe but it wasn't as metallic looking. I really do like the idea of it though (great idea thanks). The sofa I have purchased is a lullaby sofa with round cuddler chair (please see picture). The only difference from the picture is the silver and gold cushions are replaced by charcoal and silver. I'm really not decided on what style to go for with the livingroom but I'm very open to suggestions!
