Holden Décor Curious Creatures Wallpaper - Green

You should use a high-quality, pre-mixed wallpaper paste specifically formulated for 'paste the paper' applications and suitable for paper substrates. Always follow the paste manufacturer's instructions for application.

Yes, its spongeable quality makes it suitable for areas like downstairs toilets or bathrooms with good ventilation where it might encounter minor splashes. For full bathrooms or kitchens, ensure good ventilation to prevent excessive moisture buildup. It's not designed for direct contact with water.

Measure the height and perimeter of your room. Multiply the height by the perimeter to get the total wall area. Then, calculate the coverage of one roll (10.05m x 0.53m = 5.3265 square meters). Divide your total wall area by the roll coverage, and *always* round up. It's also crucial to factor in the 64cm pattern repeat and 32cm offset match, which means you'll need extra paper for alignment. It's highly recommended to buy an extra roll to account for wastage, cuts, and future repairs.

A lightly textured finish means the surface of the wallpaper has a subtle tactile quality rather than being completely smooth. This adds depth, visual interest, and can help to gently disguise minor imperfections on your wall surface.

As a paste-the-paper product, removal typically involves wetting the wallpaper thoroughly with a wallpaper stripper solution or hot water, then gently peeling it off. The ease of removal can vary based on the wall preparation and the type of paste used.

FSC-certification means the paper used in this wallpaper comes from forests that are managed in an environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial, and economically viable manner. It's an indicator of responsible sourcing.

This wallpaper is designed to be a finished decorative product and is not intended for painting. Painting over it would cover its unique design and textured finish.

Ensure you are correctly applying the 32cm offset pattern match. Every second strip needs to be dropped by 32cm relative to the previous one for the design to flow seamlessly. Double-check your measurements before cutting and pasting.

Immediately after hanging, use a wallpaper smoothing brush or plastic smoother to work air bubbles out from the center of the strip towards the edges. Small bubbles may flatten as the paste dries; larger ones might need to be gently pierced with a fine needle and smoothed.

This often occurs if not enough paste was applied to the edges or if the wall surface wasn't adequately prepared. Gently lift the peeling edge, apply additional wallpaper paste to the back of the paper and the wall, and press firmly back into place with a seam roller or clean cloth.

As the wallpaper is spongeable, gently wipe the affected area with a clean, damp sponge. For more persistent marks, use a mild, diluted soap solution, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Ensure your utility knife blade is very sharp for clean cuts. Be careful not to overstretch the paper when it's wet with paste, as this can weaken it. Handle pasted strips gently.
