Review on NuWallpaper NU3037 Summer Love Teal Peel & Stick Wallpaper, Multi-Color Design, Multicolor by Jeremy Gums

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Amazing effect for the price

This wallpaper is a revelation. I would never do a traditional wallpaper, it's too much work and hassle to change. This material is so easy to slip on and off (I know because we had quite a few iterations during the process!) It was also surprisingly easy to adjust the pattern. A few things I learned: 1. Make sure you hang it straight. I hung the first strip at a slight angle, so my whole wall is now a bit crooked. It's a small effect so I don't care, but I didn't think about it until we were done. 2. You may need more paper. I bought 3 rolls to cover almost 90 square meters. feet, and it was almost not enough. This longer rep pattern means you have more waste, so you may need a little more. Consider buying 1 roll more than you think you need and then returning them when not in use.3. It sticks well and moves away on its own. To match the pattern and not run out of paper we had to get creative by layering the paper in several places and not only did it stick to itself but it was easy to lift when we needed to reposition it. Work on this project in good lighting. We did it late at night but it would have been easier to see everything to sample during the day. Not necessarily, but if you're serious or want to design an entire room and not just an accent wall, having a table to line up and pre-cut all the strips will be a lot easier. We had to cut a lot and line everything up on the wall and it wasn't as easy as having a good desk. You can even do this in advance if you have access to a large workspace/table and a straight cutting tool, and then just hang these up later when all the strips are pre-cut. My wall took 2 women of average height and strength about 3 hours. The hardest part was aligning the drawing (which turned out to be a lot easier than I thought) and just reaching for the wall - make sure you have a good stool or a ladder with a high step. Buy a smoothing tool too, and maybe a second one if you're working with a partner. And a pair of scissors and a utility knife. 100% would buy this item again and make another accent wall in my home.

Pros
  • Peel and stick to stick, pull up to remove
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine
