Wallpapering is a skill that develops with practice. If you are a beginner, leave papering stairwells and ceilings until you are reasonably competent.

Safety First
Take care when working on ladders, and do not overreach.

Introduction
Wallpapering is one of the most popular ways of changing the appearance of a room. Modern materials make decorating much easier for beginners. The extensive range of wallcoverings available means that you can change the colour, pattern and texture of your walls with ease. With practice you will be able to paper even the most difficult areas of your home with confidence. Wallpapering is usually the final stage of decorating a room after painting. From solid colours to sophisticated prints to patterned papers for children's rooms, wallpapering is a simple, versatile and effective way of refreshing any space in the house.
