We papered our bathroom with a thick vinyl texture. The problem we think was the texture ran horizontally so the seams lifted.pretty much everywhere. SO WE ARE STRIPING and REDOING with a different vertical texture paper. UGH. We have a new paste the wall wallpaper. What is the best way to prepare the wall. So we don’t get this lifting again. And how long do you recommend not showering in there to let the glue dry adequately? We’ve had lots of papers before and this had never happened so we are problem solving.
Hi! It may have been the type of paste you used and/or the paint that was underneath. The instructions should say what type of paste you need (i.e. all-purpose, heavy duty, vinyl paste, etc.) and some state the appropriate paint (i.e. wallcovering primer, oil paint, regular latex paint, etc.) and their cure times before you can hang over top (i.e. 24 hours, 21 days, etc). Some paste isn't compatible with some paint, so that may have been the issue as well. Just follow the manufacturers recommendation. Call them if it doesn't say on their instructions. If that was all correct, yes...it may have been too much humidity too soon. I would say give it at least 48 hours. Make sure the room is a comfortable temperature when you're installing. If it's very hot and humid where you are, make sure there is air conditioning on. The heat can dry out the paste too quickly, which would cause the seams to curl. As for removing the old, make sure you wash all the old paste off the wall once the paper is off. Follow the new manufacturers instructions regarding the paste and paint types. Let me know how it goes! Adrienne
I have had good luck with peel and stick
@@lynndavis2884 if you have any tips to share, I’m sure they’d help anyone who bought peel and stick
Excellent explanation over the corners !! 😊. Thanks a bunch Keep up the good work
@@mannya.1681 it’s my pleasure Manny!
im extremely intrigued and wish I would have seen this before painting our gaming dungeon
@@dokidokidokidokidoki wallpaper goes over paint 💁🏼♀️
I tried this but it didnt works, the seems wont paste.
@@deeesmeralda8577 you might need the heat gun. Did you try that?
Does this same method work on paste wall wallpaper?
@@theardentarcher for paste the wall, you wouldn’t usually let the paste dry first. Use the same method, except make the double cut as soon as the second panel is on the wall.
Soapy water mix in a spray bottle will assist you in “slipping “ the decal behind the toilet and or pipes. It’s how professionals set decals. Same for paper with adhesive on it.
@@loadedfun4764 awesome tip…thanks so much!
Great job I love the color

I used commercial wall paper and after it died some of the edges curled. As you know the paper is vinyl how can I get it to lay down? Thank you for sharing this video! 😊
@@auntieb1082 you might need to try the heat gun I mentioned in the video.
Very helpful video, thank you!
@@Kgrabowski62 glad it helped! 🤗
best corner application explanation i've found on youtube! thanks for this :)
Glad it helped! Love your channel!
Thanks for the video.
It’s my pleasure!
Good video. Had this problem with a mural.....did what you did and then I used painter's tape to hold down seam and left it for 1 week. Peeled off the paint and seam is perfect.
Ooh that’s a great tip about the tape…thanks for sharing Pat!
You make it look easy girl. I know I can too! Getting all the info i can before I do my bedroom.. I’m a new be so it will be interesting. I’ve heard peel & stick is not very forgiving so I’m not going there for my first time. How do you measure what you will need? The wider the paper the better I’m guessing. After the bedroom I’d love to do my bathroom .. maybe ??? Enjoy your video, you explained what you were doing every step . Thanks
You can definitely do this! Here’s a video on measuring for wallpaper: ua-cam.com/video/ZK8EtPfbB_o/v-deo.htmlsi=K3tYkTDg54LbscdY Let me know how it goes!
Thanks very helpful , will try it dear

I find the really long huge metal ruler WITH CORK BACKING, to be far superb to the short tools like you are using for this kind of cut only. Because a STRAIGHT long fresh crisp line cut looks so much better than a hand drawn one. No matter how skilled I am, this tool reallllly does the job. The cork backing is essential though. Otherwise yes, any straight edge tool will slip too easily.
Omg what a tip…thank you! I’ve never seen a cork backed ruler. I’m totally looking for one now! 🙏🏻
Thank you!
Hope it helped!

I’m having a nightmare this is happening to me but even worse is that the sides have shrunk so I’ve got a tiny gap in between 😢 I was wondering about putting a layer of watered down pva over it ? 🤷♀️ it’s peel and stick
Oh no! I’m sorry to hear this is happening! I’m wondering if the peel and stick stretched during installation, and is now shrinking back down exposing a gap where you can see the wall. If you can get the wallpaper to at least stick to the wall, you can paint the gap in a matching colour to the wallpaper so the wall blends in with the wallpaper. Here’s a video I made a looooong time ago. It talks about hiding the white edge of the wallpaper seam, but it’s the same procedure to also hide the wall. ua-cam.com/video/zI2qBooTlbI/v-deo.htmlsi=ozpoXJ9cH-KrfCFb Let me know if that helps!
I've been hanging wallpaer for 50 years, and as a 4th generation paper hanger I have never found the need to color the edges and never have a white line at the seam. It would take longer to color the edges on each side of every piece than it takes to hang the mural she has shown. Although its true Paper can shrink on the wall this is not necessarily the best solution and you cant double cut the edge of a mural.
Hey Sheryl! This video is to help DIYers hanging a dark mural who are not comfortable making a double cut. The white edge will always be visible if you leave the overlap. That being said, I always colour the edges of dark wallpaper that have a butt seam. It definitely takes a long time, but it’s an extra step I take for my clients to give the best results. It sounds like you have a technique that hides the white seams without colouring them though!!! 👏🏻 I’d love to hear your tips…it could save me (and other installers) loads of time. Would you share?
You shouldnt push really hard, youre cutting into the drywall causing the paper to recess a bit, you will see the seam at angles on certain colours especially. You need adequate pressure to do your best to only cut the two paper. The cut does not need to be perfectly straight either, if youre using a straight edge I suggest using something much longer like a 6ft level for example. That's just my advice it's not written in stone or anything. I think your work looks great there. 🤘
Thanks for the tips Matt! 🙌🏻
I love this ! Not really suitable for the kitchen family room we are currently renovating. I am in NZ and have a house with more than half in paper. Thank you for your tips on this Chanel

What's a fair price to pay for someone to hang wallpaper on a wall that is roughly 150 square feet
That’s a tough one! It depends on experience, overhead (insurances, vehicle, marketing, etc) and the city you live in.
Thank you for this video
Anytime! Thanks for watching!
Awesome timing!!!! Thanks a bunch.
You are so welcome!
Thank you. I think i wasnt making the wallpaper wet which is why it wasnt sticking
Glad that little tip helped!
v nice technique, love it
Hope it helped!
Thank you
It’s my pleasure! I hope it helped!
Great video! Thanks for the demo 👍
Hope it helped!
Good morning, Adrienne, Yes it helped very much I did it this morning thank you again have a great day@@aboutmurals
@@ALPHAJACK78 yay! Great work!
Thank you- going to give it a try.
Let me know how it goes!
I have some large straps peeling which I want to repaste. Any ideas on what to use to clean the wall 1st to get off the dry glue?
Hey Elizabeth! I usually just use warm water with a bit of vinegar and a sponge (with some elbow grease). Remember to let the walls dry a little before you re-paste the wallpaper - if it's vinyl wallpaper, you don't want to trap moisture between the wall and the paper. It could cause mold. Let me know how it goes!
Awesome video. Hats off to you. Super informative and great little tips!
Thanks, I'm glad it helped!
Great video! It is something very helpful to hang or install the wallpaper. 🥰🥰 Wallpapers can elevate any space beautifully and by choosing this option, this method gonna help people to apply successfully.

Glad you're finding it helpful, Jennifer!
Hello, Adrienne. I have a question: I have old wall paper I want to get rid of. So is it better to repair the old wall paper seams like you showed, and then put the new wall paper on top, or to just rip off all old paper and put the new ones on the uncovered wall? thanks.
Hey! Anytime it’s possible, I always recommend removing old wallpaper first (make sure to wash off old paste and re-paint if required,too). Wallpapering over existing wallpaper can create nightmares down the line.
Yes excellent advice!
