![]() Then, use your utility knife to cut around any fixtures or molding in the middle of the wall. Do the same for all panels of fabric until your wall is completely covered. STEP 2Īttach your fabric to the wall with thumbtacks, and cut it roughly to size, leaving a little excess at the ceiling and baseboard. While it’s drying, lay out a drop cloth to keep your floors from being ruined. Also, give a quick wash to the wall you’re going to be hanging the fabric on, and let it dry thoroughly. Wash and dry the fabric, then cut off the white edges with a good pair of fabric scissors. Whichever fabric you decide to use, make sure you have enough square footage to cover the wall and then some-you’ll want at least a few feet extra so you have room to reposition pieces when you’re lining up the print. When you’re finished, let the walls dry following the instructions on the paste container. Repeat Steps 3 through 5 with the next sections of wrapping paper until you’ve covered the full wall, taking care to smooth down the paper and get rid of any bubbles as you go. If you need to make any cuts to fit around molding or hardware, trim with your X-Acto knife and then use the small foam brush to lightly spread the wallpaper paste along the edges and stick it to the wall. (You can use a damp sponge to remove any traces of excess paste on the wall.) If you’ve booked your paper, unfold the bottom end when you reach the middle, and continue to smooth the rest of the way down. Press the paper into place, and smooth it downward with clean hands. STEP 4Īlign the top of the wrapping paper once more to where the wall meets the ceiling or the molding. Wait the length of time suggested on the can before unfolding the top end. Do this by curling each end up to the middle of your paper, then lightly pressing the pasted sides together as much as possible without creasing the folds. If instructions on your can of wallpaper paste require it, “book” the wallpaper so that the paste completely penetrates. Pour the paste adhesive into a paint tray, and work with one panel at a time. Remove the tape from your first paper, and lay it on a flat surface so you can apply paste with a roller directly to the back of the paper. Cut your length, and use painter’s tape to lightly hold it in place while you unroll your second column of “wallpaper” and match up the pattern. Hop onto your step ladder to align the top edge with the top of your wall unroll the rest so that it measures roughly the length of the wall, with a little extra on the bottom. STEP 2Ĭut your paper into ready-to-hang pieces.
