Range Of Border: If you have more space it is possible to create one of a wide range of borders, incorporating varying widths and curves, which will be far more interesting than a border of straight lines. One of the great advantages of a mixed or herbaceous bordei is that you can change it from year to year. And as you become more adventurous and knowledgeable, it will be possible for you to create bolder and ever more spectacular border displays.
The first of these—the coastal ranges—forms a discontinu¬ous series of mountain ranges which border the coastal plain from the state boundary on the south to the Cooktown Hinterland, on the north. Different sections of these coastal ranges have distinctive names—as, for example, the D'Aguilar Range, the Berserker Range, Connor's Range, and the "drowned" mountain range which forms Hinchinbrook Island. The Great Dividing Range, which forms the second portion of the eastern highlands, embraces a series of ranges, plateaus, and highlands of varied descriptions.See Also Wallpaper Border:Wallpaper borders can be purely decorative features or they can serve a more practical purpose, such as disguising a crack in a wall. Wallpaper borders are also useful for altering the apparent proportions of a room. By running the border at, say, the height of a traditional dado, you can visually break up the dimensions of a room -useful when you want to create an intimate, cozy atmosphere in a large or imposingly proportioned area. You can also use wallpaper borders to enhance the visual impact of a room's archi¬tectural features - stairways can look very stylish, for example, if they are outlined with a suitable border paper, or you can emphasize the slope of a ceiling or window recess in an Attic room by following its line with a strip of border paper.

All-over repeating patterns come in unlimited numbers of subjects and colors, although each pattern is usually made in only a few different color schemes. Appropriate wallpaper patterns may now be had for any room in the house. Floral and leaf patterns are the most common, and usually the conventionalized forms are in best taste. Too great realism is inadvisable. Many striped, abstract, and Textile pat¬terns may also be found. Where walls are completely covered with paper it is sometimes advisable to create an effect of variety by using extra borders at the top or baseboard of the room or around door and window trim. Many borders are made that correspond to special wallpaper pat¬terns, and panel effects may also be produced by border strips. In this arrangement, the wallpaper is used inside the panel and the stiles are covered with a contrasting plain paper or one which corresponds to the background of the patterned paper.
