Wallpaper colour affects how a room feels in terms of light, warmth and space. Grey wallpaper is the most popular choice for living rooms and bedrooms, providing a neutral backdrop that suits both modern and traditional interiors. Beige wallpaper offers a warmer neutral tone that complements natural materials and timber furniture.
Green wallpaper and blue wallpaper suit rooms where a stronger colour is wanted without going fully dark, with both available in shades from pale and muted to rich and deep. Black wallpaper creates a dramatic finish suited to feature walls and contemporary schemes. Gold wallpaper adds warmth and works well alongside neutral furniture and accessories. White wallpaper suits smaller rooms and spaces with limited natural light. Pink wallpaper and purple wallpaper work well in bedrooms, nurseries and feature walls where a softer or more playful colour is wanted.
Wallpaper style determines the overall character of a room, from subtle decorative finishes to bold statement designs. Floral wallpaper remains one of the most popular choices, available in designs ranging from delicate sprigs to large-scale botanical prints suited to both modern and traditional interiors. Modern wallpaper covers abstract patterns, geometric designs and understated textures suited to living rooms, bedrooms and home offices.
Panelled wallpaper replicates the look of wall panelling without the installation required, making it a practical option for hallways and dining rooms. Brick wallpaper and marble wallpaper add texture and a natural material effect, suited to feature walls in kitchens, hallways and living areas. Jungle wallpaper and other nature-inspired designs introduce colour and depth, particularly in bedrooms and home offices. Striped wallpaper can make rooms feel taller with vertical patterns or wider with horizontal layouts. Vintage wallpaper suits bedrooms and dining spaces where a classic, heritage-inspired finish is wanted. Kids wallpaper covers animal prints, storybook themes and playful patterns suited to children's bedrooms and nurseries.
Wallpaper type and application method both affect how straightforward installation is and how well the wallpaper performs in the room long term. Bathroom wallpaper and kitchen wallpaper is moisture-resistant and designed to cope with humidity while maintaining a decorative finish. Washable wallpaper is easy to wipe clean and suited to hallways, dining rooms and homes with children or pets.
Paste the wall wallpaper applies adhesive to the wall rather than the paper, making it faster to hang and easier to reposition during installation. Self adhesive wallpaper requires no paste at all and suits smaller areas and temporary decorating projects. Vinyl wallpaper offers a durable, wipe-clean surface suited to high-traffic rooms. Textured wallpaper adds depth to feature walls and helps disguise uneven surfaces. Paintable wallpaper can be decorated in any colour and repainted over time without removing the wallpaper. 3D wallpaper creates a raised, tactile effect suited to feature walls in living rooms and bedrooms.

Next wallpaper brings fashion-influenced styles and colour palettes into interior decorating.
Wallpapering involves three essential phases: preparation, pasting, and hanging. To begin, prepare walls by removing old paper, sanding surfaces, filling cracks, and cleaning with sugar soap. Measurement is the next critical step; cut strips with 10cm of extra length and establish a straight vertical guide using a plumb line or spirit level.
For adhesive application, use the "Paste-the-Wall" method for ease, which involves applying adhesive directly onto the wall surface before hanging each strip, or the "Paste-the-Paper" method, which involves coating the back of each wallpaper strip with adhesive and then allowing it to soak for a few minutes before hanging. When installing, align the first strip with your guideline and use a smoothing brush to push air bubbles from the centre toward the edges. Finally, trim excess paper at the ceiling and skirting board using a utility knife and a putty knife for precision. Complete the process by wiping away any excess paste with a damp sponge to ensure a clean, professional finish.
You can paint over wallpaper to save time on stripping, but only if the surface is smooth and fully adhered to the wall. The most critical step is using a non-water-based primer for the initial coat, as water-based options can cause the paper to peel or bubble. Experts advise against painting over heavily textured paper, as the paint will only accentuate the uneven surface. Additionally, you must avoid painting over any paper that is already loose or bubbling, as the weight of the paint will likely cause the paper to fall off. For a flawless finish, focus on properly handling seams and blocking old patterns from bleeding through. Following these guidelines ensures a professional look without the labour of removal.
To panel a wall, begin by measuring the area and calculating panel spacing, then use decorator's tape to visualise the layout. Prepare the surface by removing hardware and sanding it smooth. Cut your MDF strips or wood panels to size, using a mitre box for precise corner angles. Before installation, use a detector to locate hidden pipes or wires. Apply strong construction adhesive to the back of the panels in a zigzag pattern and press them firmly against the wall, ensuring they are perfectly straight with a spirit level. Secure the pieces with nails or screws if the wall is uneven.
For a professional finish, apply decorator's caulk to the edges and wood filler to any holes. Once dry, sand the surfaces smooth before priming and painting. This DIY process transforms the room with a seamless board-and-batten or traditional appearance.
Calculating the correct amount of wallpaper requires measuring walls while accounting for roll dimensions and pattern repeats. To ensure proper alignment, the pattern repeat measurement must be added to each strip's height. Users should also include a 10% safety margin for trimming and installation errors. Crucially, windows and doors should not be subtracted from measurements, as the surplus paper covers waste and offers material for future repairs.
Because roll sizes and patterns vary significantly, manual calculations can be complex and prone to error. Therefore, the easiest approach is to use our wallpaper calculator to determine the exact quantity needed before purchasing. These steps provide a reliable way to manage costs and ensure a seamless installation process.
You can wallpaper over existing lining paper if it is in good condition and securely attached. Before starting, check for peeling, bubbling or hollow sounds; if damaged, the paper should be replaced. Prepare the surface by filling holes and sanding smooth. If the lining paper was previously painted, apply a primer or size to help the new adhesive bond correctly.
When hanging the new wallpaper, offset the seams from the original layer to prevent overlapping joins. Using a high-quality ready-mixed adhesive can help avoid over-soaking the underlying surface. Following these steps will help create a smooth, professional-looking finish without removing the existing lining paper.
You can paint over lining paper, as it is designed to provide a smooth and stable surface. Start by sanding ridges, filling imperfections and ensuring the wall is completely dust-free. While emulsion can be applied directly, priming is recommended for the best long-term results.
In moisture-prone rooms, use an oil-based primer to help prevent the wallpaper paste from reactivating. For paper in excellent condition, a mist coat made from emulsion thinned with 10% water can be used instead. Apply two coats of paint using a brush for edges and a medium-pile roller for the main wall area. Any bubbling that appears during painting will usually disappear as the paint dries.
To remove wall stickers without damaging paint, gently warm the adhesive with a hairdryer on a low or medium setting for around 30 seconds. Lift one corner with a fingernail or putty knife, then slowly peel the sticker back at a 180-degree angle while keeping it close to the wall surface.
For thin or brittle decals, dental floss can be used behind the warmed edge to separate the adhesive safely. If residue remains, clean the area with washing-up liquid, rubbing alcohol or a baking soda and oil mixture. Always test any cleaning method on an inconspicuous area first to avoid discolouration and help protect the wall finish.
Sticky back plastic is a self-adhesive vinyl film used for DIY, upcycling and home decorating projects. Featuring a peel-and-stick backing with grid-lined release paper, it can be easily cut to size and applied to smooth surfaces. The durable PVC material is water-resistant and heat tolerant up to 75°C, making it popular for refreshing cupboards, worktops and furniture.
It can also be used to line drawers, protect books and create decorative privacy films for windows. Its wipe-clean surface and repositionable adhesive help achieve a bubble-free finish. Sticky back plastic offers an affordable way to update interiors while helping protect surfaces from moisture and everyday wear.
To apply wall stickers, start with a clean, dry and dust-free surface. If the wall has recently been painted, allow the paint to cure for two to three weeks before installation. Gather essential tools including masking tape, a squeegee or credit card, a measuring tape and a spirit level.
Position the design using the spirit level, then secure it with masking tape using the hinge method to maintain alignment. Remove the backing paper and press the vinyl firmly onto the wall, smoothing from the centre outwards to remove air bubbles and creases. For intricate designs and lettering, carefully remove the application tape once the sticker is securely attached.
