I literally like the idea of applying the paste on the wall other than applying on the wall paper. It makes it more seamless! -)) Good Job

Gary Douglas : Hello. Thanks for writing in. Wallpapers expand when wet and shrink when they dry, which is why it’s usually important to cross line the walls before you hang wallpaper that is a past the paper wallpaper. But this particular wallpaper doesn’t move at all as it’s a non woven paste the wall wallpaper. So never leave a gap between drops. Always butt the joints as close together as you can. As long as the joints don’t lift away from the walls. I hope I have been of some help. Regards H

Hello. You make a very good point. Scoring the plaster can look untidy so you have to cut carefully and not dig the knife in too deep. Using scissors is in theory a good idea but it’s almost impossible to get a perfect straight line. If you are worried about plaster damage, the best thing is to do is wall to ceiling corking so that you have a little more give under the blade. Most corners in modern houses have corking in the joints already to avoid cracks. If that sounds too arduous just use a clean putty knife. A sharp blade and cut at an angle so that the scoring is as minimal as possible. If you’re careful it’s almost impossible to to see any damage. I hope I have been of some help. Regards H

steve uter : Thanks very much for writing. That's a very good idea. On reflection afterwards for the sake of the demo I should have used a wallpaper with a simpler pattern but as this was in my own home I couldn't resist this wallpaper (one of my favourites) and it was given to me for the demo by my favourite wallpaper shop. I very much appreciate your comment about explaining the various starting points. It's so easy on the day when working in front of the camera to miss even some of the most obvious advice . So all constructive comments are very welcome. Best regards H

Great tip. I tend to use that very same method when hanging ordinary wallpaper. But this type of non woven wallpaper is quite thick and doesn’t shrink when dry. So I tend to butt the joints together then smooth away from the joint and push the joints back together if it moves slightly. Thanks for the comment. Regards H

GUYMAU1 : Hello. There is no specific wallpaper for concrete walls. But I would say that the most suitable wallpaper would be a thick non woven wallpaper that is wipeable. And a medium/strong ready mixed paste for applying to the wall. I hope I have been of some help. H

thanks a lot for this reply after research,many video on Facebook by different contractors put wallpaper glue on the wallpaper,some put the wallpaper glue on the wall and others on the wall and wallpaper.could you tell me the best way to succeed? also do you have any video on how to wallpaper an angle wall,i mean wall that have coner

GUYMAU1: Hello again. The best way to succeed on a concrete wall is defiantly to past the wall. But use a Past the wall wallpaper ( non woven ) I wouldn't suggest ordinary wallpaper as it is normally too thin for a concrete wall. I'm sorry I don't have a video on wallpapering around a corner. Maybe I should consider uploading one soon. Regards H

Thank you 🙂

Rachel Ainsworth : Thank you🙂

Alexandria McCormack Thank you for watching 🙂

Hi harry Great video just one question If you get wallpaper paste on ceiling or walls on the sides will it stain the paint or if you wipe it with a sponge will it stain the paint Thanks

Daniel Brewin: Hello. Sorry for the late reply. If you get glue on the wall or ceiling it shouldn't leave a stain if you remove it straight away with a damp sponge. Unless you have a very absorbent paint, for example very mat un-wipeable or chalk based paint. If so then you can protect the wall from the glue by lining the walls and the ceiling with a not too sticky masking tape all the way round the edges. Very best of luck. H

Harry Anstice Hi harry Thanks for the information you're message has been pn here for 3 weeks I didn't get a notification Sorry for the late reply

Daniel Brewin : No problem 🙂

Penny Duncan: Thank you for watching. Best of luck with your wallpapering. Any questions don’t hesitate to ask. H

have a nice day have a nice day: Thank you 😊

Hello. That can be one way. What I sometimes do is make a line then use masking tape as a marker from the ceiling down and use that as a template for where the wallpaper should end. I have also hung the wallpaper right up to the ceiling. Then used a nail in each corner and very taught string from nail to nail then trimmed the top of the wallpaper along the string to bring the wallpaper down a little if the cornice has been uneven. I hope this has helped. Regards H

Hello. If the corner is very wonky I sometimes run the plastic spatula into the corner several times so that the uneven corner is more visible. Then carefully cut freehand using a brand new blade. Another method is to use a smaller straight edge that you can manoeuvre more easily down the corner while you are trimming the wallpaper (again with a new blade) I hope I have managed to be of some help. Regards H

Spencer Colgan : I nearly always start from either side of the central point. You can centre the first drop right in the middle of the wall instead of each side of the centre line but only on a strait match wallpaper.

Ufoman : Yes it can be tricky. For the sake of the demo I started in the middle. But usually with this type of wallpaper I like to lay the paper on the floor so that I can work out the corners. But I must say the wall in real life looks much better than in the video as it's such a busy pattern that you hardly notice, and it has a sort of zig zag evenness 🙂.

It takes a little bit of practice. But I hope the step by step guidance will make it as easy as possible 👍👍

@@onceuponawall-harryanstice2529 has helped alot just finished child's room never papered before and have to say turned out well took me along time but practice makes perfect and with your videos it made me achieve something that I wouldn't off achieved. Now doing feature wall on kitchen. Thanks for your videos

Michelle Francis: Hello. For this particular wall I used 2 rolls. Usually you get between 3 to 4 drops per roll depending on the repeat of the pattern. Regards H

Liza L : Hello. I used on ordinary paint roller. But I used a 7.5 inch roller. Not a wide one. Have a nice weekend. Regards H

Hello. I’m afraid there is always a lot of wastage when you have a repeat pattern with a large drop. But 500 to 600 Mm is quite an average drop so there shouldn’t be too much wastage. If you have any doors or windows you can sometimes use the offcuts above them. So don’t bin them straight away. Best of luck with your first wallpapering venture. H

Hello. When I started my apprenticeship 30 or so years ago I remember there being only 2 types of wallpaper pastes. The ready mixed industrial glue for very heavy vinyl. And the mix yourself powder that was used for everything else. Now there are many types. The one I used in this video was specifically for non woven wallpaper. There is now lighter paste for pasting wallpaper on a table. Non woven paste for non woven wallpaper. Wet room paste for bathrooms the list goes on. So the best thing is to always check the label on the wallpaper and if in doubt ask the wallpaper seller. I hope I have been able to help. All the best. And a very Happy New Year H

alicia sy: Hello. I use a brand of ready mixed wallpaper paste that’s made by a company called Norsjo a subsidiary of Dulux. But there are many different types of glue for the different types of wallpaper. Non woven, past the back. Heavy vinyl etc. so I would advise you to ask the shop that sells the wallpaper which glue they would recommend. These days I always use ready mixed glue. When it comes to cutting round the outlet I find it very difficult the explain in writing but there are a couple of very good videos explaining how it’s done.

alicia sy Hell again. If you write “how to wallpaper around sockets” at least three very good videos explaining how to do it will pop up. Very best of luck H

phil day Hello. The tools you need for non woven wallpaper are. A roller for applying the paste tho the wall , a brush for the corners , a cutting knife and blades, a straight edge ( eg a wide putty knife) A wallpaper spatula or brush for smoothing out the bubbles. A laser, plumb line or spirit level so that the first drop is straight. And a bucket and sponge for cleaning any excess glue from the joins. Very best of luck. Have a great weekend. H

BMk'er : Hello. Thanks for writing in. I would personally recommend past the wall wallpaper as there are so many great ones out there. It's especially good for beginners as it's a little easier to hang. Wet paper is always easy to tear. So to avoid this happening always hold the straight edge firmly into the corner. When cutting, use a new blade and try to flatten the angle of the blade as you're cutting the paper to avoid friction. I hope I have been of some help. Regards H

Harry Anstice Thank you.. appreciated..

BMk'er: Welcome. Have a nice weekend 🙂

Thank you 🙂

Harry Anstice your very welcome

luanna lovell Hello. If you want to keep the cornice and the brick effect is very thick it would be advisable to remove the cornice before hanging the wallpaper. Although it might be difficult to put it back again afterwards. I think the best solution ( without seeing the wallpaper ) would be to hang the wallpaper so that the starting point from the cornice is the grout part. So that you start from the top with a whole brick. That way you usually can hide any discrepancies. Otherwise just remove the cornice all together. Very best of luck. H

P M You're welcome 🙂

Hello. There can be many reasons why you get bubbles under the wallpaper. The main reasons can be too much paste. Or the wall hasn’t been prepared properly or you could have let the wallpaper soak for too long. Another reason could be that the room was too warm, so the wallpaper dried too quickly. In the video there weren’t any bubbles because I used a “ paste the wall” non woven wallpaper that has a lot less problems with blisters as you apply the wallpaper dry. If it’s an ordinary wallpaper you paste the back of the paper and allow to soak. With a non woven wallpaper you apply the paste to the wall. But if you mix them round you can run into all sorts of problems. But most wallpapers come with instructions so it’s rarely a problem. Having said all that. The main reason us wall paperers in the videos don’t get bubbles is because we are professional wallpaper hangers and have been doing it for many years so don’t let your first experience put you off. We all had those problems to begin with and all you need is practice. Thanks for writing in. All the very best H

Hello. So sorry to hear about your husband. Sometimes decorating can be very therapeutic and keeping busy is the best way to deal with grievance. I’m sure he would have been very proud of you. I’m so glad you found my video and hope you find it useful. Thinking of you Harry.

@@onceuponawall-harryanstice2529 Thank you so much. OK I'm looking at my half wall which is 12 ft. Do I start on the left that is a corner. To the right is the door frame. This is the biggest wall we have. We have a open half dreser on the left wall and a small bit of wall on each side of it. The rest of the kitchen my husband built the cabinets and they are quite tall so only a bit of wall above them. He was painting the cupboards the weekend before he passed..He painted them denim blue but it was very strange paint was matt in some places and satin in other places. So I have painted them a ink blue all 20 of them so was a lot of painting I painted them in matt cupboard paint and they turned out beautifully. I have painted the bottom of the walls we do have in the same colour looks great. Sorry for bothering you on a Sunday. Thank you for your help and advice. Kind regards denise luby

@@denise2383 Hello again. It’s difficult to give you completely sound advice without looking at the wall. But by what you have described to me I would say that you should start from the doorframe and work your way left towards the corner. Then wallpaper above the door afterwards. Normally I would suggest starting from the middle and working your way out from each side so that you get perfect symmetry with the pattern. But you have so much going on in the room with cupboards etc that working from one side to the other should work fine. Regards H

Thank you so much for your help. I bought super fresco easy wallpaper. It's very soft so I hope that it's OK. My husband had used the same make on the stairs but that one feels tougher. I will post a photo if all goes well. Thanks again f for your help

Harry have a great day Kind regards denise luby

Tehcarp : Hello! I think one of the most cost effective ways to learn is to help friends out. When I started my apprenticeship in the 80's I did a lot of small jobs for friends telling them that I was still learning so they would get the job done cheaply and not to expect miracles. The extra work was a lot of help. Another way is to offer to do some wallpapering for your landlord for free (as long as they pay for the wallpaper) failing that you can buy some of the cheap wallpaper that the wallpaper shops put in a basket ( extra rolls that they need to clear out ) and practice at home then remove it afterwards. Wallpaper removal is also a very important part of a wallpaper hangers job. I'm forever removing old wallpaper before I start jobs🙂 I hope I have been able to be of some help. Regards H

Hanife Elmaz: Thank you for the kind comment. The tool I use for smoothing out the wallpaper is called a wallpaper spatula. I prefer to use a spatula but some wallpaper hangers prefer to use a brush for smoothing out the bubbles 🙂

Hello. I know exactly what you mean. However hard you try to remember everything there is always something that could be improved. The skirting was painted beforehand so there was not really any preparation. Just a wipe down after each drop. If the skirting needs caulking I do that before the wallpapering. I rarely caulk afterwards. Some do it after but in my opinion that’s usually just to cover up untidy workmanship and can make a lot more work if you ever decide to remove the wallpaper. Thanks for the great feedback regards H

Hello. What I do is lay out the first drop on the table or floor ( pattern up) then roll the next drop along side it and match the pattern before I cut the top and bottom end. Then I number each drop of wallpaper on the back. Alternatively sometimes when hanging a non woven wallpaper like this one, I just apply the wallpaper straight from the roll on to the already pasted wall, matching from the top and trimming the access wallpaper with scissors before taking the roll down the wall to the bottom. I hope I have explained clearly enough. Regards H

Katerina Parrish: Hello. As long as the wallpaper you're using is a non woven wallpaper just ask for a ready mixed wallpaper glue specifically for for applying directly to the wall. Non woven wallpaper is so popular now that you should have no problem finding it. This particular glue is called premium by Casco . Very best of luck. H

Meliza Laovenia : Stay Safe 👍 I hope the video will be of some use 🙂

Snap....thanks for the video nice and simply said

Hello. This particular wallpaper itself isn’t very flexible as it’s non woven. But while the paste is still wet you can slide the wallpaper around a little. And push the seams together if they are slightly apart when you drop the wallpaper. Or carefully move the wallpaper apart if it’s slightly over lapping. Regards H

Hello. I wouldn’t recommend wallpapering around a television. Always best to remove all obstacles otherwise you may regret it later on. But if you are talking about a mounted television. Remove everything. But if you are going to re mount just make a small hole where you will put the screws back. But do it as soon as they are covered or you will forget where they are. Merry Christmas 🎄

Hello. It is very important to treat the walls first. You can prep the walls with watered down wallpaper glue. But painting the walls is better. But as you are using paste the paper, wallpaper I would strongly recommend lining the walls first.

@@onceuponawall-harryanstice2529 thankyou so much for your reply, that has helped me massively, I will be lining the walls

Karen Khan Hello. When doing a feature wall I nearly always start from the middle for symmetry’s sake. But not always. Recently I did a striped wallpaper on a very tall wall against a very large floor to ceiling window. So because of the light I Wallpapered starting from the window working my way into the room. Regards H
