Common Wallpaper Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

Wallpaper can completely transform a space, but small mistakes can affect the final result. The good news is that most wallpaper issues are easy to avoid if you know what to look for.

Here are the most common mistakes we see, and how to prevent them:

1. Ordering too little wallpaper

Running short can delay your project and create color differences. Always calculate carefully and add extra for pattern matching.

2. Ignoring pattern direction

Some wallpapers have a clear top and bottom. Installing without checking can result in upside down sections.

3. Not preparing the wall

Uneven walls, dust, or old paint can affect adhesion. Smooth, clean walls make a big difference.

4. Choosing wallpaper without seeing it in person

Colors and textures can look very different online. Seeing wallpaper in real lighting helps avoid surprises.

5. Rushing the installation

Taking time to align patterns and edges properly leads to a much cleaner finish.

At Euro Home Decor, we help customers avoid these mistakes every day. Our team assists with measurements, pattern repeats, and product selection. With over 300,000 rolls in stock, you can get everything you need without waiting.
