Disadvantages of wallpaper in a child's bedroom.

Wallpaper is not easy to hang alone, you need two people to tackle this task which can sometimes be a real headache, especially if you have chosen a wallpaper where it is necessary to match patterns between different strips. If you have a child who is a bit too creative, shall we say, they might try to tear off the wallpaper or draw on it, and then you'll need to change an entire strip of wallpaper or even several if your artist has "overflowed" with creativity.

Our tips for applying wallpaper in a child's bedroom.



Just like with paint, calculate the surface area of the room carefully to buy enough wallpaper.
