If you did it yourself/ves, can you tell me what kind of paint you used and if there was a lot of scraping of the old one involved? Thanks! Hi — did you just paint that radiator shiny white, or did you have it professionally refinished?

If you did it yourself/ves, can you tell me what kind of paint you used and if there was a lot of scraping of the old one involved?

Thanks!

With traditional papers, the glue has to be applied to the paper and given time to absorb a bit before hanging. It IS somewhat messier, but it's not much harder. The most difficult thing about wallpapering is the positioning and flattening (definitely buy a wallpaper squeegee and seam roller!), and that's something you have to do regardless of the glue application method. As far as paste goes, I'm happy with this kind (scroll down a bit to the ULTRA®, PRO-880): http://romandecoratingproducts.com/products_3.cfm It wipes clean easily, and the drying time is slow enough to give you a decent window to position the paper. Any clear wallpaper adhesive should be fine, though -- just make sure it's not the type made for pre-pasted papers, and get a big brush to apply it with. (And a tarp to put underneath!) nic: The Orla Kiely wallpaper is traditional-style, and it cannot be applied with the glue-on-wall method.

I am a total wallpaper convert after using it in our bedroom, our son's room and our kitchen. Lots of people think they don't like wallpaper, but it makes such an impact that I think when it's done successfully it is so striking. We papered one wall of our bedroom in Ferm Living's Family Tree in silver. It really looks magical. Anna, the wallpaper looks great.

You can see the power cord and surge protector in the 4th photo down. There just aren't any other cords -- I have wireless internet (the router/modem is in another room), and I don't use any other devices. I plan to get a wireless keyboard and mouse in the near future, too. lauren: They’re not hiding anywhere! You can see the power cord and surge protector in the 4th photo down.
