Review on Transform Your Home With Self-Adhesive Wood Plank Wallpaper - 17.71"X78.7" Peel And Stick Decorative Vintage Panel by Tony Basler

I installed this wallpaper without help, and it is very easy if you know a few little tricks. It was much easier to work with than the old style wallpaper because you can expose a little bit of adhesive at a time, and this pattern is very forgiving for matching one section to the next. There was almost no waste, and the seams are virtually invisible unless you run your finger over them to identify by touch. Trick #1 is to only pull away enough of the backing at the beginning to stick the very top in a couple places (i.e., expose only about 2 inches of the adhesive at the top to start, line it up to vertical as best you can, and only press to the wall in one or two little areas to tack it in place). Then go to the middle of the section and line up the sheet to be perfectly straight (leaving the backing in place for now). Then hold the wallpaper firmly in alignment with one hand, and reset the top to be perfectly adjusted to the middle. Then slowly peel down the backing by pulling uniformly and gently from the right and left at the same time to reveal a foot or two of adhesive at a time, and squeegee to seal it. Trick #2 is to use a window squeegee, rather than a little one because you cover much more area and the window squeegee has a nicer handle. Trick #3 is to start in the middle if you have some vertical reference. In my room, I began on the inside edge of the left window in the photo. Then I worked right and left from there. The accent wall took about 2.5 hours from start to finish.
