Helpful Wallpapering Tips Wallpaper can be a very cost-effective, dramatic way to alter the appearance of a room. And with the variety of types, textures, and styles now available, the right choice in wallpaper can be used to create just the right mood in a particular room: inviting and warm, sophisticated and formal, soothing and relaxing. Wallpaper can also be used to custom match walls to the rooms furnishings for an elegant designer touch. Not everyone, however, has the skill or the patience to properly apply wallpaper to the walls so that the finished project is eye-appealing instead of an eyesore. You may feel more comfortable hiring a professional interior house designer or wallpaper hanging professional. If you decide to do the job yourself, the following tips will help get you started and smooth out some of the rough spots associated with wallpapering. Preparing the Walls If walls have an existing wall covering, you must decide whether or not you should remove it before hanging new wallpaper. If the old covering is un-textured, just one layer thick, and still adhered to the wall tightly, you generally can leave it in place. Vinyl, foil, and plastic film wallpapers, however, generally do not cover well. If old wallpaper remains on the wall, glue down any loose areas. Wash the surface with detergent and a very mild solution of household bleach and water. When completely dry, apply a primer made for use under wallpaper. 1. 54 Burmese migrants suffocate in truck data: 10.04.08 At least 54 illegal Burmese immigrants have died of suffocation while being smuggled into southern Thailand in a freezer truck, police have said. 2.
