What Is Wallpaper?

Wallpaper is a decorative covering applied to interior walls to add colour, pattern or texture. Traditional rolls are hung with paste, while modern peel-and-stick wallpaper has a self-adhesive backing that sticks straight onto smooth walls.

It's one of the quickest ways to transform a room without repainting.

Traditional vs peel-and-stick

Traditional rolls need paste and careful hanging, and can be hard to remove. Peel-and-stick versions stick like a large sticker and can often be repositioned or removed later.

Wallpaper vs wall panels

Wall panels are thicker tiles, often foam or PVC, that add a 3D texture or cushioned finish.

How to Choose Wallpaper

Follow these steps:

1. Decide which room and wall you're covering.
2. Choose a material: PVC for wet areas, non-woven or wood grain for living spaces.
3. Pick a style: plain, wood, brick, tile, marble or floral.
4. Measure the wall height and width.
5. Add 10 to 15 percent extra for pattern matching and mistakes.
6. Check whether the product is peel-and-stick or needs paste.
7. Order samples or a small pack first if you're unsure of the colour.

Wallpaper by Room

Living rooms

Wood grain, brick and textured designs make strong feature walls behind sofas or TVs.

Bedrooms

Soft florals, geometric prints and foam panels behind the bed create a cosy look.

Kitchens

Waterproof PVC, tile effects and backsplash film wipe clean easily.

Bathrooms

Choose waterproof designs and good ventilation, and avoid areas that are constantly wet, such as inside showers.

Kids' rooms

Washable designs, whiteboard films and foam panels suit busy family spaces.

Rentals

Peel-and-stick wallpaper is usually removable, but test a small area first and check your rental agreement.

How to Hang Peel-and-Stick Wallpaper

1. Clean the wall and let it dry completely.
2. Fill holes and sand rough spots for a smooth surface.
3. Draw a vertical guideline with a level.
4. Peel back a small section of the backing and line up the top edge.
5. Smooth downwards with a plastic smoother, peeling the backing as you go.
6. Match the pattern on the next strip and overlap slightly if the instructions say so.
7. Trim excess at the ceiling and skirting with a sharp knife.

Avoiding bubbles

Work slowly from the centre outwards, and use a pin to release trapped air.

Tools You'll Need

Gather these before you start:

• Tape measure and pencil for marking the wall.
• Spirit level for a straight first strip.
• Plastic smoother to remove air bubbles.
• Sharp utility knife with spare blades for clean trimming.
• Straight edge or ruler for cutting.
• Cleaning cloth to prepare the surface.

Moisture and Mould

Moisture is the biggest enemy of any wall covering.

Prepare the wall

According to the EPA, the key to mould control is moisture control, and indoor humidity should ideally stay between 30 and 50 percent.

Ventilate wet rooms

Run extractor fans or open windows during and after showers and cooking.

Fix leaks first

Never cover damp or leaking walls; fix the cause and let the wall dry first.

Removing Wall Coverings

Peel-and-stick

Lift a corner and pull slowly at a low angle. A hairdryer on low can soften stubborn adhesive.

Cleaning residue

Wipe leftover adhesive with warm soapy water.

Traditional pasted rolls

Pasted rolls may need scoring and a steamer, which takes longer.

Care Tips

• Wipe PVC and vinyl with a damp cloth and mild soap.
• Dust non-woven designs gently.
• Avoid harsh cleaners that can fade prints.
• Keep away from direct heat, such as next to stovetops without backsplash film.
• Press down lifting edges promptly with a little extra adhesive if needed.

Wallpaper FAQs

Is peel-and-stick wallpaper removable?

Usually, yes: most self-adhesive designs lift off cleanly from smooth, sound paint. Test a small area first, remove it slowly at a low angle, and use gentle heat for stubborn spots. Freshly painted walls should cure for a few weeks before you apply anything.

Can I use it in a bathroom?

Yes, choose waterproof PVC or vinyl designs and keep the room well ventilated. Avoid areas that are constantly wet, such as inside the shower, and fix any leaks before applying. Wipe away splashes promptly to keep the edges sealed and lasting.

How much wallpaper do I need?

Measure the wall height and width, multiply to get the area, and add 10 to 15 percent extra for pattern matching and trimming. Check the roll or panel size on each listing. Ordering everything at once also keeps colour batches consistent.

Will it stick to textured walls?

Self-adhesive coverings stick best to smooth walls. Light texture may show through, so sand or fill rough areas first, or choose thicker foam or PVC panels that hide minor imperfections. A suitable primer can also help adhesion on porous surfaces.

Is wallpaper good for renters?

Peel-and-stick designs are popular with renters because it needs no paste and usually removes cleanly. Test a hidden spot and check your rental agreement before covering large areas. Keep the packaging details in case you need to buy more later.

What's the difference between wallpaper and wall panels?

Wallpaper is a thin covering printed with a design. Wall panels are thicker tiles, often foam or PVC, that add real texture, cushioning or a 3D effect to the wall. Foam panels also cushion walls in children's rooms and playrooms.

How do I stop bubbles?

Clean the wall first, work slowly from the centre outwards with a smoother, and peel the backing a little at a time. Prick any remaining bubbles with a pin and smooth them flat. Warm rooms help the adhesive settle and bond well.

Can I use it behind the stove?

Use oil-proof backsplash film designed for kitchens, and keep it clear of direct flames and very hot surfaces. Check each listing's heat guidance before installing near a cooktop. Wipe the film regularly with mild soap to keep grease from building up.

How long do peel-and-stick designs last?

On smooth, dry, well-prepared walls, good self-adhesive coverings can last several years. Kitchens and bathrooms with high humidity may shorten their life, so ventilate well, avoid steam directly on the surface and press down any lifting edges quickly with a smoother.

Can I cut the panels to fit?

Yes, foam and PVC panels cut easily with a sharp utility knife and a straight edge. Measure carefully, cut on a protected surface and trim around sockets and switches after switching off the power at the breaker. Dry-fit before peeling.

How long does shipping take?

Most orders arrive within 6 to 32 business days of being placed. That covers 1 to 2 business days of handling and 5 to 30 business days in transit. Standard shipping is free on every order, and we currently ship to US addresses only.

Can I return wallpaper?

Yes, within 30 days of delivery, if the item is new, unused and in its original packaging. Email support@globalswanky.com with your order number, the product name and the reason for the return, then wait for return instructions. There's no restocking fee.

Find the Right Wallpaper

Choosing wallpaper comes down to three checks: the right material for the room, a style that suits your space, and careful wall preparation. Peel-and-stick PVC or wood grain designs are the easiest place to start.
