Hi guys bit of advice, tips needed.
Having recently moved into my house I have been progressing through it painting and tidying up.
I am currently on the main bedroom and have completed the paintwork. There is an alcove where the kingsize bed sits that I would like to paper, I have the paper already purchased which is "paste the wall" paper. I was debating whether to get a pro in but because it's a relatively small area about 2m x 2m I think I would like to tackle it myself as I have been really pleased with my painting work so far.
What exactly do I need? Pasting brush? Smoothing brush? Cutter? Etc. The wallpaper itself has vertical fine stripes but the missus wants the lines to go horizontally as that's the way it is shown on the picture for the paper, is this more difficult than hanging the paper vertically? Also should I apply lining paper first? The wall itself is smooth and I have applied a few coats of White basecoat paint.
All advice is greatly appreciated.
