An easy way to give a room an entirely new look is to add wallpaper. “Instaling wallpaper is not as difficult as you think. Once you establish your own style of hanging, it gets easier and easier,” said Stephanie Wray, a design center specialist at The Home Depot.
First check the condition of walls to determine if you can paper over existing paint or covering, or if you need to remove or prime before you begin.
Clean painted surfaces with a solution of bleach and water then prime wall with wallpaper primer before hanging new paper. The importance of primer is two-fold: wallpaper adheres better when placed over primer, and if you choose to hang new paper later, the primer also makes it much simpler to remove the old.
Plaster walls, as found in houses constructed 30 yers ago (most newer homes have wallboard), present a special problem. If you do have plaster, you will find it’s a tempermental material and when subjected to the stress of removing old wallpaper or paint, it may crumble and fall away from the wall leaving gaping holes. If possible, choose to sand and prime instead
