1. Prepare Your Walls:
- Start by cleaning the walls thoroughly to remove any dust, dirt, or grease. This will ensure better adhesion.
- If there are any holes or uneven surfaces, fill them in and sand them down to create a smooth surface.
2. Measure and Cut the Wallpaper:
- Measure the height and width of the wall you'll be covering with the wallpaper.
- Use these measurements to cut the wallpaper panels, leaving a few inches of excess at the top and bottom to allow for adjustments.
3. Peel Off the Backing:
- Begin at one corner of the wallpaper panel and slowly peel off the backing, revealing the adhesive side.
4. Position and Apply the Wallpaper:
- Carefully position the wallpaper panel against the wall, starting from the top.
- Use a wallpaper smoothing tool or a clean cloth to gently press the wallpaper onto the wall, working your way down to the bottom.
- Smooth out any air bubbles or wrinkles as you go to ensure a flat, even application.
5. Trim Excess Wallpaper:
- Once the panel is fully applied, use a sharp utility knife or scissors to trim any excess wallpaper at the top, bottom, and sides.
- Take care to make clean, straight cuts for a polished finish.
6. Repeat the Process:
- Continue applying the wallpaper panels, aligning the patterns as necessary, until the entire wall is covered.
7. Final Touches:
- Once all the wallpaper panels are installed, go over the entire surface with a wallpaper smoother or clean cloth to ensure strong adhesion and remove any remaining air bubbles.
- Allow the wallpaper to set and dry completely before moving or placing furniture against the wall.
