Review on Wall NU1397 Ariel Stick Wallpaper by Thong Lopez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very happy with the results!

I wanted to put something on the wall behind the bed but didn't want to paint. I was careful with this type of paper as I live in the Port of Tampa, Florida where it is hot and humid. So I bought a roll first as a test, installed a piece and let it sit for a week to see if it held up and it did! Now I've wallpapered the entire wall, it's been 3 weeks and I couldn't be happier. The overall effect is amazing! The paper is very easy to work with, and while the pattern is large, it's actually very forgiving of how you line up the seams. Unless you stand close to the wall and look for them, you can't even see the seams. My recommendation when using this or any other paper is to just be patient. It took me about an hour and a half and 4 rolls to glue my 9 x 7 wall. There was some overkill that you would expect compared to the drawing, but it wasn't much. I would just recommend anyone preparing to install paper to do a test pattern first and let it see if it can adapt to your climate before wasting a lot of time. It took me time and money to completely change the look of my bedroom.

Pros
  • DO NOT apply this product to textured walls - smooth, clean, dry painted surfaces only (no non stick paint or soap residue)
Cons
  • Not the best
