Walloro’s Step-by-Step Guide for a Stunning Wall Makeover

Wallpaper is one of the most affordable and stylish ways to transform any room. But many homeowners ask the same question:
👉 “How do I apply wallpaper by myself?”

In this blog, we’ll walk you through the wallpaper installation process, share expert tips, and explain why Walloro wallpapers are your best choice for an easy, flawless finish.

🎯 Why Choose Wallpaper?

Before we dive into the "how," let’s answer why wallpaper remains a top decor choice.

✅ Quick to apply
✅ Cleaner than painting
✅ Adds texture, style, and personality
✅ Covers wall imperfections
✅ Easy to remove or change later

At Walloro, we specialize in PVC-free, breathable, and washable wallpapers that combine elegance with ease of use.

🧰 Tools You’ll Need

Before applying your wallpaper, make sure you have the right tools:

• Wallpaper (preferably from Walloro 😉)

• Wallpaper adhesive or paste

• Roller or brush

• Utility knife

• Plastic smoothing tool or spatula

• Level or plumb line

• Measuring tape

• Clean, dry cloth

🛠️ How to Apply Wallpaper – Step by Step

1. Prep Your Wall

Your surface should be clean, dry, and smooth. Sand down any rough areas and remove old wallpaper or flaky paint.
📌 Pro Tip: If you're applying light-colored wallpaper over a dark wall, consider using a white primer first.

2. Measure and Cut the Wallpaper

Measure the height of your wall and add about 2 inches (5 cm) extra to each strip for trimming.
📏 Walloro wallpapers are typically 53 cm wide, but check your roll’s specific dimensions.

3. Apply the Adhesive

Depending on the wallpaper type:

• Non-woven or vinyl-backed: Apply adhesive directly to the wall

• Traditional paper-based: Apply adhesive to both the wallpaper and the wall

💡 Walloro’s non-woven wallpapers are designed for direct-to-wall application – easier and cleaner!

4. Hang the First Strip Carefully

Use a level to draw a straight vertical line and align your first panel with it. Start from the top and gently press downward, smoothing as you go. Push out air bubbles using a plastic spatula.

5. Match the Pattern

As you apply the next panel, make sure the design or pattern aligns perfectly.
🎯 Walloro wallpapers feature precision printing for effortless pattern matching.

6. Trim the Excess

Use a sharp utility knife to trim the top and bottom excess. For a professional finish, cut along the edges slowly and precisely.

🧽 Final Touches and Cleanup

After you’ve applied all panels:

• Wipe off any excess glue with a damp cloth

• Let the wallpaper dry naturally (avoid heaters or air conditioners)

• Stand back and admire your new walls!
