Before diving into your wallpaper dreams, here are a few things to keep in mind. First off, walls need a little TLC—make sure they’re clean, smooth, and primed before install. If you’ve got textured walls, that texture may peek through, so a liner paper or skim coat might be your new best friend. Always order a sample first to check color in your space (light changes everything!). And remember, natural fiber wallpapers like grasscloth are beautifully unique—those subtle variations and seams? That’s the charm. Lastly, we always recommend hiring a professional installer unless you’re a seasoned DIY’er with a steady hand and a level. Trust us, good wallpaper deserves a great install.
