Safiyya 118"x17.3" Peel and Stick Wallpaper Gold and Blue Contact Paper Floral Wallpaper Self Adhesive Removable Wallpaper for Bedroom Covering Vinyl Rolls

If you just want to know if it’s worth the money, no need to read the rest of my paragraphs, those are for people curious of how I installed it.It’s very much worth the money. It looks gorgeous! I included photos, the before, the after, and the picture of the wall half covered is how much the largest roll covers on an 8 foot wall. It actually covers more, but to have the pattern match, you’ll waste several inches on every run. Also it will get finger prints on it. Just FYI. It’s a bit shiny so they’ll show up. But with a damp rag they come off.I inherited a hoarder house, it’s been a PROCESS to make it livable. But after finally getting things cleared out and cleaned up, it was time to start the remodel, and I figured the entryway was the best place to begin. I found this wallpaper on aN.A. on and it’s beautiful but I do have some thoughts and tips for anyone buying.Here are some things I would suggest using that will make this process easier and safer:I used a Werner folding aluminum scaffold. If you’re going floor to ceiling, or anywhere high up, this is a must. I found mine used on Facebook marketplace for $40, however they’re sold at Home Depot and online for about $100. They have a high weight limit and it’s about 3 feet long which allows me to walk side to side on it with some stability instead of using a step stool, I’m 300 pounds and step stools don’t cut it for me.I would suggest using a ceramic blade box cutter. I used a box cutter with a carbide blade, and while it worked great, it worked TOO great and there’s some areas where as I was trimming off excess (because of course the edge of my wall isn’t straight) I actually cut through paint and sheet rock. Quickly. A ceramic blade is still sharp but a good bit more gentle. If you’re in a rental, this might be a good option for you so you don’t create damage you’ll have to pay for later.I thought one large roll would do the trick, but on an 8’ wall you will have a lot of waste to match the design up. Which meant I had to cut 6-8 inches off of every end to match the wall paper on the next run. I did include a photo (the 3rd photo) of how much the largest roll will cover. I did end up buying a second roll which came the next day. It was a perfect match, no issue in design, it lined up perfectly.While I did use a razor and a straight edge, the back has a grid which makes cutting it straight much easier.I let the wallpaper roll all the way to the ground, lined up the right edge with the design on the left edge of the previously installed wall paper, then held the slack at the edge of the ceiling and cut about an inch long cut horizontally (parallel with the ceiling) at the ceiling, then brought it down to my scaffold and took my straight edge (a long ruler works as well, anything straight that’s about 24 inches long or so works), located the horizontal cut I had made, lined it up and cut across with my box cutter. Scissors will work as well, I have popcorn ceilings, those ceilings have asbestos, and I’m not made of money. So my lines up top weren’t perfect.I made sure when I had the rough amount needed that the right edge of the roll as it was sitting on the floor was even with the left edge of the last run of wall paper. This makes it easier to keep it lined up all the way down. As it’s not being slightly pulled to the left or right.I then started by peeling the back off about 8 inches from the end, stuck it up on the wall at the top, made sure it aligned, smoothed it on with my hand, careful to make sure that the lines were lined up, held one hand against the paper and began to peel the backing off from behind slowly to make sure I didn’t go off track. Once enough of it stuck to where it didn’t feel like it was going to tug off, I could start peeling with both hands from each side of the wallpaper. Stopping regularly to smooth it down against the wall for it to adhere. It easily peels back off if you’ve made a mistake, and it sticks down just as firmly as it did before. I wouldn’t say it’s idiot proof, but it certainly allows you to learn how to do it without destroying your wall or the wallpaper itself if you made a mistake.Once I got about 3/4 of the way down the wall, of course the backing paper is everywhere so I trim it off, then continue to peel the rest of the backing down to the bottom of the wall. At the baseboard I was pushing the paper against it, molding it against the baseboard seam where it lines up to the wall, it’s thin enough to just use your finger nail to run at the seam of the baseboard and the wall to cut through the paper. Remember, there’s a few inches that will be wasted, so you can have your cut straight with the baseboard (which in some old homes like mine ISN'T straight) and not have to worry if the cut will cause the next strip to be wonky at the ceiling.Now, if you’re like me, it’s not going to be perfect. It’s not going to be totally professional. My issue was at some of the seams, there’s still white showing. A tiny tiny bit of the wall behind showing between the seams. And it’s noticeable because I bought black wallpaper. My solution was a sharpie. Just coloring in the seams did the trick. It blends it well enough that you can’t tell, even standing up against it that it’s there.Now, there is some glue you can use sold on here if it’s not adhering well, I will be using it in the future, I didn’t use it at the time because I’ve never hung wallpaper before and lord knows I knew I would screw it up! Since I live in Texas and it’s humid, and my walls are shifting from the drought constantly, I know this wall paper is gonna come down eventually on its own if I don’t apply the glue. But for the time being, I just wanted mine to look better. I always hated the wallpaper it had in it. It was old, dry, nicotine stained from being chain smoked in by multiple people for 40+ years, and clawed at by cats.

The wallpaper is amazing! It's thick and easy to use! I used it in my kitchen cabinets and drawers and I absolutely love how they look.

This was my first time ever doing wallpaper, so needless to say I was sufficiently nervous! After trying out 20 different paint colors that I didn’t like I decided I would give the wallpaper a go. I’m so happy I did because everything came out BEAUTIFUL! The paper was thick and easily adhered to the wall, and was able to adjust to keep my lines straight. I will say that with any wallpaper you need to cut according to the pattern repeat, so you’ll definitely have excess so you need to buy more than just length times width. Also the way the pattern is done, and the suggestion of overlapping by about 1/4” or so in case of shrinkage, it doesn’t line up exact but I’m okay with that. I love the way it turned out! Took my old brown/beige bathroom to bright & light! Definitely recommend!

I orderes this paper to use on the inset panels of my kitchen cabinets. I chose the dark blue and gold. The paper is very thick and seems durable, and I had no problem getting it on and smoothing it. However, I noticed scuff marks appeared very easily before I got all the doors hung back up. My husband managed to scuff two of them just by rubbing his thumb over the textureed surface. These obviously won't last forever, but the overall effect is pleasing. And because the color is on top of the paper and not part of it, you can see the seams where I had to use multiple pieces as the width of the cabinet was wider than the roll. It's a thin white line I can see no matter if I ran it horizontally or vertically. If course, I'm the only person looking that closely so it doesn't really matter. I considered using this in the entryway, too, but my dogs would scuff it up. It's not made for high use areas.

I ordered two large rolls at the same time to do my wall. Not until after adhering the first roll did I find that the second roll did not line up. I had to waste so much paper to try and line it up and ended up not having enough. Vendor will not refund because of this, so check your rolls! I was short a little and had to buy another roll and it's way off. You can see in the pictures. I asked if they would find me a roll that matches better so I could line it up and not continue to buy and return rolls until I get the right one, they said they cannot do that. Btw, the entire width is the pattern, there is no repeat from left to right, so you need the rolls to match.At first the application looked great, see pictures, I'd say my only criticism is the backing was white and if youre standing on the side you can see it on the side of the paper/where the seams are. About a month later I started to notice the wall poking through in some areas, see pictures. I overlapped as directed. Super disappointed since this wasn't necessarily cheap to do.

After reading the reviews I was going into this project: expect the worse hope for the best. I did took one of the reviewer tip to cut/ match all the pieces on the floor before applying to the wall and I took time. The wall I was working with was 95x136inch. I ordered 2 398inch rolls. The 1st roll I was struggling to match the design, it was not perfect ( but I can live with that) also left a lots leftovers from in between. I was able to get 3 pieces. 2nd roll the design matched perfectly, but also left lots of leftovers from in between, I was able to get 3 pieces as well. I came short two pieces, had to order extra roll. Applying onto the wall wasSUPER EASY ( to my surprise), you just have to take time. This was my first time working with that kind of product. The wall turned out really really good, and no BUBBLES. I really really wanted this paper to work as I loved the design, it was for my office and I wanted to look feminine. Spent $75for this accent wall. 5 STAR even thou the 1st roll design did not lined up perfectly.
