Whether you've hung ウォール covering before または not, I'd like to offer these first-timer and advanced tips:
• More often than not, a first wallpapering project is either a キッチン または bathroom because they seem to be smaller rooms with less wallpaper. However, beginners should keep in mind that because there are so many partial walls and obstacles in these rooms, they are actually もっと見る difficult than a simple small bedroom.
• If あなた plan to miter the corners of a border, order one extra roll to cover cutting and waste. Mitering is a matter of finding the repeat in the 壁紙 border and positioning it so that a mitered cut leaves a closely matched design. Use this technique for bordering windows, going around cabinets and tile または for vaulted ceilings.
• Test the paste on pre-pasted ウォール coverings to determine how long to soak them in water によって putting two drops of iodine on different dry spots. If it turns brown, it indicates a starch-based paste requiring 15 to 30 秒 to soak. If it turns purple, the paste is cellulose based and only needs to be soaked for 1 to 15 seconds.
• If あなた are working with a large patterned paper, it's best to start at the ceiling with an entire デザイン element versus cutting through the middle of a bouquet, for instance. If あなた can start with a little plain background at the ceiling, it will help to mask any unevenness where the ceiling and ウォール meet. If there is a coordinating border going over the top, make sure the bouquet または major element starts just below the edge of the border.
• When it comes to hanging paper, there are three very important rules. First, always use a level on every ウォール to maintain a true vertical line. Second, always cut inside corners, and then overlap the 次 sheet によって butting it in the corner. Third, always ラップ outside corners, also overlapping the 次 sheet to the corner.
• It's best and most efficient to work with a partner. Usually one person activates and 本 the strips while another does the hanging. Establish a rhythm and あなた won't get in each other's way.
• Keep 壁紙 hanging 本 または guides in your tool kit for reference.
