Paste The Wall Wallpaper

Our collection of paste the wall wallpaper offers a straightforward way to decorate your home with a large-scale mural. Each design is printed to the exact dimensions of your wall, ensuring a perfect fit with no complex calculations. From modern landscapes to classic floral patterns, you can find a style that suits your interior. Before committing to a full mural, you can check the colours and material by ordering a sample to see it in your own home first.

Choosing the Right Design for Your Space

The paste-the-wall method is suited to a wide array of designs, from large, continuous landscapes to detailed patterns. For a contemporary living room, a design like the Terracotta Mountain Landscape Mural creates a serene focal point. Because each mural is made to your wall's exact size, the scale of the design is always appropriate, whether it is an intricate floral or a broad, atmospheric scene.

Consider the room's existing colour palette. A mural with subtle clay or green tones can introduce warmth and connect with natural materials like wood and stone. For a bolder statement, a black floral design like the Black Peony Floral Mural provides dramatic contrast, especially in well-lit rooms. The simplified installation process of this paper type means even complex designs are manageable.

How to Prepare Your Wall for Installation

Proper wall preparation is key to a professional-looking result. This wallpaper is suitable for smooth or lightly textured interior walls. It is not designed for application on rough surfaces like brick or stucco. Before you begin, ensure the wall is clean, dry, and free of any dust or grease. Any holes or cracks should be filled and sanded smooth. This creates a uniform surface for the adhesive to bond with and makes future removal easier.

Accurate measurements are also a vital part of preparation. Using a tape measure, find the widest and tallest points of your wall. This extra material provides a margin for trimming at the ceiling, skirting boards, and corners, ensuring complete coverage even if your walls are not perfectly square. Our wall measuring calculator can help you confirm your figures before ordering.

The Paste The Wall Application Method

The primary advantage of paste the wall wallpaper is its direct application process. Unlike traditional papers, you apply the adhesive directly to the wall section by section, rather than soaking the paper. This reduces mess and saves time. You simply apply a suitable wallpaper paste to the wall for one panel at a time, then hang the dry panel, smoothing it into place.

This method offers more control during hanging, as the dry paper is lighter and less prone to stretching or tearing than wet paper. It allows for minor adjustments as you work. For a detailed walkthrough of the entire process, from mixing the paste to trimming the edges, we have prepared a comprehensive Wallpaper Installation: A Step by Step Professional Guide. Following these steps will help you achieve a seamless and durable finish for your new wall mural.
