You show utter passion in your videos.
Well Spencer I'm a painter and decorator here in N Ireland and I wanted to say that the way you hang paper is the exact way myself and my late father and his two brothers hung paper.., good vid mate:)
Thank you
This is so helpful. So many of the wallpaper rolls tell you to start in the corner. Very helpful. We are going to be doing this ourselves and I really wanted to learn how to lay it out.
Thank you so much for making these! I just started my own project yesterday after watching all of your videos. Very helpful!
Jon Voight of wallpaper....Thank you for such critical thinking for laying out wallpaper 🤙🏾
Thank you so much for explaining this! The window debacle makes sooo much sense now that you exp,aim it this way.
Extremely helpful! Thank you sir
You show utter passion in your videos. I bet your brilliant to work with.
Thanks sir
This is a great video. Thank you!
I can watch this video all day
I used to start in a corner, but your way is much better, I am starting a new room and I will cut A stick the width of the paper and map the room just like you did. Great Video!!!
Thank you so much for explaining this!
Myself and my teenage son wallpapered his room this week...my first time doing it and it’s not perfect but looks fab!!
Thank you for this channel x
So nice of you to say Michelle
You are my hero🙆♀️
I do exactly the same what you do! Lots of love from London ❤️🤗
Thank you for this channel
Your videos are excellent thankyou for making them and giving me confidence to take on tricky wallpapering projects. I'm about to start a room with 7 doors and 2 wall columns separating walls which will be painted.
Dear John, go for it! You know that you can do it. I am so happy to hear that my videos have helped you; would you do me a favour now? Would you please give me a nice review on my public profile and tell them how I have helped you? I would greatly appreciate it if you take one minute to do this

I've hung wallpaper several times. However, I learned from one of your other videos about how to avoid edges lifting by not cutting through the surface of the plaster sheets when trimming. I also thought perhaps I hadn't applied enough paste. Now I know my mistake.
after watching a few of your videos, I decided to hire someone to hang my wallpaper. I did a fast google search for local installers and low and hold, you were on the top of my list! I feel so lucky that I can hire you to and your company to hang my wallpaper! Just made me smile.

Very well explained sir..nice one from uk
I used to start in a corner, but your way is much better
Thank you for the video.
I am going to tackle a wall that has a slant from the ceiling on the high side around 12 feet down to 8 feet on the lower side. which side is better to start from?
Like your thinking Spencer I don't always agree with your reasoning but on this I do it exactly the same way when I paper a clients home. I do enjoy watching your videos new ideas are what makes us better at what we do.
Thank you billy
Thank you for the video
It is always happy days when MRS Jones doesn't want the window recesses covered and mind your head on yaunn tiffany lamp lolll
You're the best
He has the look of a wallpaper serial killer 😂
I’m new to wallpapering, watching a lot of your videos. They are super and walls are turning out great.Question: where would you start if you were doing only the window wall and couldn’t go around the corner? What would you recommend as the narrowest strip?
I think that would be like a feature wall. Spenser has another video to address that, and he found the center point of the wall and the paper, and he made sure he had even strip widths on each end.
I typically start in a corner, 1/3 of a roll's wide away. It works 99% of the time. My other strategy in a complicated room is to find the centre point and work outwards
I am starting a new room and I will cut A stick the width of the paper and map the room just like you did.
Nice
I am curious. Did you use 4 different rolls over the window? How did you match the pattern?
Thanks for watching my channel; please understand that you’re going to have to spend the time to watch at least one of my videos but preferably more than one to get a good sense of it… Put in the search bar in UA-cam Spencer Colgan how to wallpaper around a window
Great video! Since walls are rarely plumb and straight, when you turn a corner with your wallpaper, how do you ensure the paper edge is still perfectly straight after turning the corner, to butt up well to the next piece, especially when you have a paper that has a pattern you need to continue? Is there a video on this topic as well? Thanks, again!
This was helpful. I had always thought you began where you wanted to end because sometimes the beginning and the end connect to each other and if the paper has a pattern it doesn't match. So you would watch the mismatch in the least conspicuous spot of the room. I am now in search of the answer to this question.

Wow! Thank you.

I’m working around a window and a door. If it weren’t for your videos, I’d be trying to measure, match up and hang a one inch strip. 😬 I found my starting point this morning. Hopefully it’s the right one.
Call round your room or your wall wherever the totality of your installation will be and hold out your tape measure the width of your wallpaper and with your wallpaper tape measure, see where all of the edges will fall and this is how you know where your wallpaper will wind up after it’s installed; in other words you are going to simulate the layout with your tape measure holding it out as wide as your wallpaper us and go round the walls and make a little mark and then you will see if you were too close to a corner
I really urge you to watch this video in order that you get the full understanding of what will happen at your last piece

Thanks so much! I’ll watch now
For contractor test is outside of corner the right answer....
Have you ever pasted Chinese paper ? Or rice paper ? Would love to hear back from you man…
Hanging my own in 2nd bath and powder room, after being quoted 1300 for both 😮 I’m so Leary
Rule of thumb - away from the window - behind the door - starting at the window and finishing behind the door.
The way my mum showed me aswell
Is this Brian Dennehy’s baby brother ? Good explanation all kidding aside 👍
You also have to compensate for the expansion of the paper.
Excellent point; you are absolutely correct
@@spencercolgan keep up the great videos
Perfect way to hang wallpaper is to not get married, then you never have to hang wallpaper or yourself again ✌🏽
God - I came here so you tell me where to start. No need to challenge me as I don’t have A CLUE!
I think I'm stupid 🤣
He is very thorough and I'm sure quite the professional but I cannot take the way he talks it feels like he's either talking to elementary school kids or he's talking like you're stupid but I'm sure you're very knowledgeable on hanging wallpaper you can tell he knows this stuff
Somebody else said that about this video but I can assure you it might just be because you are very sensitive to instruction. I can assure you that I am not arrogant
J
50 years decorating and i couldn't listen to another word you said, If you have to use a tape measure ??? Plan your lay out !!!! Bollocks !!!! I could have finished the room by now
Thank you for your harsh words; I need to be humbled as often as possible
With all your experience I have to question why you're even watching. Perhaps just to pick apart videos that may assist others far less distinguished than yourself?
@@the318pop No exactly the opposite, I didnt know this existed & didnt know it was to help DIY, It just shocked me at first , & fair play to them letting people know how to go about it, what they are doing is good,, At first i thought they were PRO'S so now i know, all the best !!!
@@spencercolgan Take no notice do your great job
Amateur! You haven’t plumbed a line to make sure it’s going to be straight.
I use the laser level;I use the laser level; you must be one of those UA-cam guys who knows everything
@@spencercolgan You should of made it clear that’s all 👍🏻 just trying to help you make better videos.
At 4.19 you show where you determine where you will start your run R-L around the windows and this overlaps the previous corner by maybe 200mm (8in). At 5.24, you show where you will continue this previous run, but starting not at the previous overlap datum, but at the previous corner? This does not work. Why do you show completely incorrect methods?
I’m sorry but I really don’t know what you’re talking about but I can honestly say I remember this job end it went just about according as I planned although I do remember that my seams wound up being a couple of inches away from where I wanted them to be but, do you presume evil when in fact it may just be happenstance?
Unless you have x-ray vision, it's impossible to see exactly where the tape gets placed. I totally agree with this tutorial and if you have a better technique... Please post on UA-cam. No doubt someone out there will criticise you.
@@padgehind I have nothing to prove, I would never hang paper in this fashion, you obviously know nothing about paper hanging.
@@iamkjb1 I never asked you to prove anything. I have been a painter and decorator for 32 years, so your assumption is wrong. Why don't you post videos of your superior techniques??? Give us all a good laugh 🤣🤣🤣
@@padgehind Sounds to me like you've been doing it wrong for 32 years. You amateurs are all the same, self-taught, third rate craftsmanship. I would not waste my time on you.
Horrible video
So where do you start again ?
This is a great video. Thank you!
