How to hang wallpaper borders.

Be sure to prepare your walls properly before hanging wallpaper.

  • Use a "vinyl-over-vinyl" border adhesive for applying a border over wallpaper.
  • When applying over painted walls, lightly sand the border wall area before applying the border.
  • Fold the border accordion style for easy handling.
  • Follow the ceiling line around the room, allowing 1/2 inch overlap at corners.
  • To hang around a window or door frame, overlap the horizontal and vertical strips at the corners.
  • Cut through both strips at a 45° angle at the corner and remove excess pieces.
