What do you need?

Before you start, it is useful to have everything ready. To apply non-woven wallpaper, you will need the following materials:

  • A tape measure
  • Wallpaper paste (specially for non-woven wallpaper)
  • Wallpaper roller or brush
  • A sharp Stanley knife
  • Spirit level
  • Wallpaper spatula

Step 1: Make sure you have a smooth surface

The first thing you need to do is make sure that the wall you are going to wallpaper is clean, dry and smooth. Do you already have old wallpaper on the wall? Then remove it completely before you start. Fill holes and cracks with a little filler and sand the wall smooth. This ensures that the wallpaper is nice and tight and does not bubble.

Step 2: Measure the wall

Before you order your wallpaper, it is important to measure the wall properly. Measure both the width and the height of the wall and add 10 centimeters to this. This prevents you from coming up short. This way you can always cut accurately without missing any pieces.

Step 3: Glue on the wall

The great thing about non-woven wallpaper is that you apply the glue directly to the wall. So no hassle with wet wallpaper strips! Apply an even layer of glue with a roller to the part of the wall where you want to stick the wallpaper. Always work in sections of about 2 strips wide to prevent the glue from drying before you apply the wallpaper.

Step 4: Let's wallpaper!

Now comes the fun part: applying the wallpaper! Always start at the top of the wall and slowly lower the strip. Use a wallpaper spatula to smooth out any air bubbles. Make sure the strip is nice and straight by using a spirit level.

Creative tip: Play with patterns! Whether you go for our Jungle animals wallpaper or the playful Retro vans wallpaper , don't be afraid to experiment with accents such as one accent wall or combining different prints.

Step 5: Cut away excess wallpaper

Once you have applied the wallpaper, use a sharp utility knife to cut away any excess wallpaper around the edges. Make sure you keep the knife sharp so you can cut nice straight lines without damaging the wallpaper.

Step 6: Let it dry and admire your work!

Let the wallpaper dry and give yourself a pat on the back, because you just created a beautiful room for your little one! With the right wallpaper you create a calm, cheerful or adventurous atmosphere where your child can sleep and play wonderfully.
