Start with the wall condition
Before choosing a design, check whether the wall is smooth, clean, dry, and fully painted. Wallpaper performs best on a prepared wall. Heavy texture, dust, or fresh paint can reduce adhesion.
Check the design scale
A mural is printed to your wall size, so the crop matters. Make sure important elements are not cut off by windows, doors, outlets, or furniture. Ask for a preview proof when using a custom design.
Durability checklist
- Choose peel-and-stick for simple updates and rentals.
- Choose traditional material for larger permanent installations.
- Clean gently with a soft cloth; avoid abrasive chemicals.
- Order a little extra height or width if the wall is uneven.
