When choosing wallpaper can be a transformative process for your space but can be quite tricky to install.
Here, are some of my most valuable tips to consider:
Preparation is Key: Before installing wallpaper, make sure the walls are clean, smooth, and free from any imperfections. Fill in any holes or cracks and sand down any rough surfaces.
Prime the walls if necessary, as it helps the wallpaper adhere better and creates a smooth base for application.
Measure Accurately: Measure your walls accurately to determine the amount of wallpaper needed. Consider the pattern repeats and any additional panels required to achieve a seamless look. It’s always a good idea to order a little extra wallpaper to account for any mistakes or future repairs.
Consider the Room and Style: Take into account the style and mood you want to achieve in the room. Vintage-inspired wallpapers work well in traditional or eclectic settings, while moody designs can add drama and depth to contemporary spaces. Consider the natural lighting in the room and how it may affect the overall look of the wallpaper.
Samples and Swatches: Request samples or swatches of the wallpapers you’re interested in. This allows you to see how they look in your space and how they interact with different lighting conditions. Test the samples alongside your chosen green paint colors to ensure they complement each other harmoniously. Remember, internet visuals can be very misleading!
Pairing with Green Paint Colors: The green paint colors will beautifully enhance the vintage and moody aesthetics of your chosen wallpapers. For a dramatic and sophisticated look, consider deep green hues such as emerald, forest green, or dark olive. Lighter green shades like mint, seafoam, or celadon can create a fresh and inviting atmosphere that complements vintage patterns.
Seek Professional Help, if Needed: If you’re unsure about installing wallpaper yourself or if you have complex wall surfaces, it’s wise to hire a professional wallpaper installer. They have the expertise and tools to ensure a flawless application.
Take Your Time and Follow Instructions: Read and follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully during the installation process. Each wallpaper may have specific recommendations regarding application techniques and tools. Take your time to align patterns correctly and smooth out any air bubbles or wrinkles as you go.
