So, I'm diving into the world of wallpapers. Any survival tips for a newbie who’s more likely to wrap themselves in it than get it on the wall? 😁

Hey there! Wallpapering can be a bit tricky at first, but don't worry, you'll get the hang of it! One tip is to start with a small, less visible area to practice your technique before tackling the main walls. Also, make sure to measure twice and cut once to avoid any wastage. And don't forget to prep your walls properly by smoothing out any bumps and applying a primer for better adhesion. Take your time and don't rush it, and soon you'll have beautifully wallpapered walls to show off! Good luck! 🖌️🎨

Invest on buying the right tools for wallpapering, including a sharp utility knife, a smoothing brush or roller, a wallpaper smoother or squeegee, a wallpaper paste brush or roller, and a plumb line or level for straight application. 😉👌✨

When I started, I just picked wallpapers I liked and used them. It's super fun! 😊 Just try different ones until you find what you love! 🎨

I found it helpful to start with a small, manageable area rather than tackling a whole room at once. I made sure to properly prep the walls by filling in any holes and sanding them smooth. Using a wallpaper paste that's suitable for beginners and taking my time to carefully smooth out any air bubbles helped me achieve a great result.

Wallpapering can seem intimidating at first, but don't worry, you got this! One tip I'd suggest is to start with a small, less visible area to practice and get the hang of it before tackling larger sections. Also, make sure to prep your walls properly by cleaning and smoothing them out beforehand. And don't forget to match up your patterns if your wallpaper has them! It might take some patience, but the end result is totally worth it.

Thanks for the tips! Starting small sounds like a smart move, I'll definitely give that a try. 🤞 And yes, measuring twice seems like a good rule to follow - wouldn't want to waste any precious wallpaper! 📏 Can't wait to see how it turns out! 🤗
