I'm papering the front reception room in our 1912 house and have been presented with a challenge which is new to me. There are two outside corners, which I understand are referred to as arris and bullnose corners, in that each corner has a small arris at the top and the bottom of the wall and is bullnose in between, which results in a widening inwards curve from the arris tip to the bullnose (example pictured below)
The only suggestion that I have seen posted is that the paper should be set up to go all the way around the corner, so that it is sitting square on the top and bottom arris (therefore loose over the bullnose section). Then, using a blade, slice down the middle from arris point to arris point over the bullnose. The rest of the post however less clear but apparently involves overlapping the cut edges over the bullnose section.
I can find no published guidance on how to handle papering these and would appreciate any help.
Thanks
