How do I determine, for purposes of changing the fireplace surround, where to stop applying the textured wallpaper if I have vaulted ceilings?

My first recommendation is NEVER add wallpaper again. If you do, properly size the wall before adding paper so it can be removed later.
I don't have wall paper up now. It is a clean white painted wall. I want to make the fireplace and surround the accent wall in the LR. My question has to do with the type of ceiling I have and how to differentiate the 2 areas.
Without seeing it I would say that you dress the chimney breast up to the ceiling.
ok
I too have a vaulted ceiling and a chimney but it is not on the peak side. If your chimney is on the peak side of the vault and ends at the roof angle I would still say make the chimney your focal point and just paper your chimney breast up to the cieling. If there is an angle at the top I think it would add interest and enhance the fact that you have a vaulted ceiling. But in the end you should do what makes you feel good about your home.
My chimney is not at the peak side either, it is in a corner which continues upward for some distance before slanting until the entire wall then peaks. It's pertty interersting and I do want to make that my accent wall with some nice shade of slate wall paper.
Thank you
