I might have an addiction to wallpaper. I just LOVE how it transforms a space and instantly adds charm and character. I wasn’t looking to wallpaper, (I think wallpaper finds me) but once I saw the checked wallpaper, I instantly knew it would look so good and really complete the area by our door. Sharing that freshly wallpapered area today! I also compiled some of my favorite wallpaper that we have in our home, wallpaper I have used in makeovers and just some really cute wallpaper sources! Keep reading to the end of the post for tips on how to install wallpaper.

Common wallpaper questions-
Q– Can wallpaper go on top of textured walls? A– It depends on the wallpaper, some wallpaper will tell you in the description. Try to order a sample to test it out first! I recommend using a pattern to disguise the texture.
Q– Does temporary wallpaper damage your walls? A– In all of my experience, no! But each wallpaper manufacture is different. So check with them.
Q- How do you measure for wallpaper? A- This online calculator is very helpful, you can find HERE. Most online calculators don’t factor in the pattern repeat (that one does). Be aware that sometimes when you order wallpaper it could only come in a double roll. So if you are doing a small section you might not want to do a wallpaper that only comes in a double roll. If you have a lot of weird angles and cut outs it might be worth it hire someone to hang the wallpaper, and a lot of times if they are going to hang it they will come measure the space for you.
