If you feel like it's time to remodel your house a bit, you can start with applying new wallpapers - it can help you a lot!
The only thing is, you need to prepare your walls well, so your new wallpapers will look good.
Here are a few tips for you.
First, remove any old wallpaper or peeling paint.
Use a scraper or putty knife to gently peel it off. If the old wallpaper is stubborn, you can use warm, soapy water to soften it before scraping.
Make sure the wall is smooth. Fill in any holes or cracks with a wall filler or putty.
Use a sandpaper block to smooth the filled areas. This step helps your wallpaper look even and neat.
Applying a primer is like putting a base coat on your nails before nail polish.
It helps the wallpaper stick better and gives a consistent surface. Let the primer dry according to the instructions on the can.
Measure your wall and cut your wallpaper into strips that fit. Leave a little extra at the top and bottom for adjustments.
If your wallpaper requires paste, spread it evenly on the back of the wallpaper using a brush or roller.
If you have peel-and-stick wallpaper, you can skip this step.
Carefully position the wallpaper on the wall, starting from the top and smoothing it down as you go.
Use a wallpaper smoother or a clean, soft cloth to remove any bubbles or wrinkles. Be patient and take your time.
Use a sharp utility knife to trim the excess wallpaper along the edges and corners for a neat finish.
Allow the wallpaper to dry completely. This might take a few hours or overnight, depending on the type of wallpaper and paste you used.
That's it! Once your new wallpaper is dry, you'll have a fresh and lovely wall in your room.
