How to measure wallpaper

Standard Wall:

To ensure a perfect fit, measure the entire height and width of your wall. Please provide us with the exact dimensions of the surface you want to cover, excluding any skirting boards or coving. Double-check your measurements before sending them to us.

Sloped Wall:

For walls or ceilings with slopes, measure only the longest and widest parts, disregarding the slopes. We will provide the mural as a complete rectangle or square, and the slope will be cut away during installation.

Pitched Wall:

If your wall has two slanted sections, identify and measure the longest parts in both width and height. Once again, we will create your mural as a square or rectangle, and the necessary cutaways will be made during installation.

Wall with Obstacles:

When there are doors, windows, or other obstacles on your wall, measure the total width and height of the wall. The obstacle will be cut away during the hanging process. If you have additional measurements, a photo, or a rough plan, feel free to send them to us. We can incorporate the position of the obstacle into your proof image. It's easy!

Multiple Walls:

If you plan to wrap the wallpaper around multiple walls, simply add up the widths of each wall and provide us with a single measurement when placing your order. There's no need to order the mural as separate pieces.

Installation Guide wallpaper

Use self-adhesive wallpaper on flat walls to which the glue will easily stick and bind well. Below please find a list of surfaces that are not recommend for installation as the wallpaper may not stick to them or damage the surface when peeling off:
• Textured Walls - all kinds of convex unevenness will be visible after gluing the wallpaper, air will accumulate in concave gaps and the glue will not bind in these places.
• Wallpaper - sticking self-adhesive wallpaper on paper is not recommended, when you try to peel off to correct, you must completely tear off the old layer of wallpaper.
• Brick/Cinderblock - rough surfaces to which the wallpaper will not hold
• Wooden walls - similarly as on brick, the wallpaper can peel off after some time
• Unpainted Drywall/Sheetrock or Plaster - paper may possibly tear off when peeling off
• Non-stick Paint e.g. Latex paint - some latex paints, depending on their composition, may cause the wallpaper to peel off it is recommended that you check such a wall using the sample attached to each wallpaper
• Wall behind old plaster/paint - when peeling off, it is possible that the paint will strip off with part of the plaster
• Wall covered with mold - a wall which is covered with mold is usually moist, so the adhesive cannot bind well and will peel off
Bathroom: Installing any wallpaper in the bathroom is not easy due to steam. To check if you can hang a self-adhesive wallpaper in your bathroom, order a sample and glue it on the desired wall at height above 7 ft. If, after 7-14 days, it does not start to peel off, your wallpaper should also stick. It is not recommended in areas that are directly in contact with water
Kitchen: If you want to hang the wallpaper over the kitchen counter near the sink, etc. it is necessary to cover it with a laminate that protects against water and all kinds of splashes

Before you install your wallpaper, prepare the wall in a way similar as before applying a normal wallpaper or before painting:
* If there is any kind of unevenness, smooth it out by applying a coat and dry so it is even. Similarly to old plaster or paint, it should be cleaned and smoothed beforehand
* It should not be painted at least up to 21 days before hanging the wallpaper
* It should be cleaned with a cloth moistened with a warm water of all kinds of dust, grease, etc., everything that might reduce its tackiness. Do not use chemicals or soap. The wall must be completely dry during installation
* If there are power outlets on the wall, cut off the power supply before hanging the wallpaper and unscrew the sockets

Before you hang your wallpaper
* After receiving the parcel with the wallpaper, check immediately if your order is complete and does not contain any defects such as:
* Mechanical damage
* Errors in print
* Incorrect wallpaper size - is it not smaller than ordered
(the wallpaper should be slightly larger than the one ordered - security buffer)
* Whether any panel is missing (Each panel sequentially is numbered)
* If you riotice any defects, do not hang the wallpaper and immediately submit a complaint to customer service.
* Before hanging, make sure that the wall is properly prepared
* What you need to hang the wallpaper
* lape Measure
* Level (or Plumb Bob) & Pencil
* Ruler or Straight Edge
* Utility Knife & Plastic Smoother
* Step Stool or Step Ladder
* Someone to help

Installation
First strip
1. Measure the width of one panel and then draw a vertical line at this distance counting from the left side of the wall, i.e., the panel width, starting from the left, measure such a distance and draw a vertical line to which the right edge of the first bar will adhere
2. Hang the wallpaper beginning from the top side. Peel off about 12 in (30 cm) backside of the wallpaper and apply it to previously drawn lines. Glue the strip from the top
3. Gently smooth out the wallpaper using a plastic smoother to avoid formation of air bubbles.
Do not press too hard against the wall. If you need to correct/reposition, gently peel off lifting the panel (CAUTION: do not pull rapidly!). Gently peel off the backside of the wallpaper moving lower and lower, gluing the next section to the wall.
CAUTION: The material is flexible, so try not to stretch it, it may cause deformation, gaps etc.
Next Panels
1. Similarly to the first strip, peel off approximately 12 in (30cm) the backside of the wallpaper and start gluing by holding the vertical panel edge on the left. Make sure you are not losing the vertical and vertical direction with the level.
2. Follow the instructions kbove, repeating steps 2-4
3. When you glue all the panels, you can press them smooth y with a clean, dry cloth
4. If you have excess material at the corners and ceiling, use a wallpaper knife to cut it off

Cleaning the wallpaper
• Clean your wallpaper with a damp cloth immediately after soiling. The use of chemicals may damage the print.
Peeling off and repositioning
• The wallpaper can be peeled off and repositioned, but remember to peel it away slowly and gently.
When peeling off, make sure that you do not peel off the paint layer - if this happens, it means that the wall was incorrectly preparedBefore you install your wallpaper, prepare the wall in a way similar as before applying a normal wallpaper or before painting:

How measure and install blinds

Measuring the width

  • Start by measuring the width from the inside edge of the window’s frame at the top.
  • If you are getting a 1/16" or 1/32" increment, round down to the nearest 1/8". (For example, if the smallest measurement is 24 9/16", round down to 24 1/2". If it's 24 3/8", no need to round down.)
  • This is the width you will order.

Step 3. Installation
Your blind may be installed either inside
the window frame or outside the window
frame.
Wallboard or Plaster: use wall anchors.
Concrete, Stone, Brick: use a masonry
drill bit and anchors or screws specifically
designed for masonry (not included).
Inside Mounting:
One bracket should be positioned about
2” to 6” from each end of the head rail.
For wider shades that require 3 or 4
brackets, these should be spaced evenly
between the two outermost brackets.
Attach each bracket to the inner top of
the window opening using the screws
provided. Pre-drill the screw holes using a
5/64” drill bit. The extension brackets are
not used for inside mounts.
For flush inside mounts, attach the

brackets to the head rail first (see
drawings and attachment instructions
below), and then position the shade in the
window opening as desired. Then make
pencil marks at the back of each bracket.
Remove the brackets by pressing on the
plastic tab. Align the brackets with the
pencil marks, and then screw them in
place as described above.

Step 4. Securing the Head Rail
Slide the inner rear of the head rail
onto the metal tabs at the back of each
bracket, and then push up so that the
brackets snap onto the head rail.
IMPORTANT FINAL STEP TO
PROPERLY SECURE BRACKETS:
pull the plastic tab on the front of each
bracket outward toward the front of the
shade to lock the brackets in place. For
inside-mounts use pliers to grasp the
tabs. Check carefully to assure that each
bracket is properly secured
Step 5. Install the Chain Tension Device
The tension device must be installed to
make sure the shade is fully operable.
While holding the tension device in one
hand, pull the plunger away from the bead
chain with the other hand. Lift the bead
chain out of the bead locking groove and
slide the tension device to the bottom of
the chain loop.
Pull the tension device down until the
bead chain is fully tensioned (plunger will
be at the top) and then move the tension
device up approximately 1/8”. Mark the
screw hole locations on the wall with a
pencil.
Inside Mount: if mounting into wood,
pre-drill screw holes and then install the
tension device using the 1¼” Phillips head
screws provided.
If not securing into wood, use appropriate
anchors for the substrate and follow
anchor manufacturer’s instructions.
Outside Mount: Align the mounting
bracket screw holes with the pencil marks.
If mounting into wood, pre-drill screw
holes and then install the mounting
bracket using the 1¼” Phillips head
screws provided.
If not securing into wood, use appropriate
anchors for the substrate and follow
manufacturer’s instructions.
Press the tension device onto the
mounting bracket posts. Carefully attach
the Tension Device to the bracket using
the 3/8” Phillips head screws provided.
