Remodeling and redecorating can change the look and feel of your home. If you are like most homeowners, however, you probably have a wish list that is a mile long. From reworking your guest bathroom and increasing the size of your master bedroom to laying new tile in the kitchen, there are numerous things that many homeowners would like to do to their homes. Whether you just bought your home or have owned it for years, there are probably a few areas of the house that you would like to change.
While we all have dreams of grand home improvement, the reality is that these projects can be expensive. Home improvement projects can cost several thousands of dollars depending on what you want to do. However, the good news is that there are some inexpensive changes that you can make to your home that will make big improvements. Most people know that a simple paint job can completely change the look and feel of any room. A new color palette can warm up the living room or give your small bathroom a more open and airy feel. Paint is permanent, however, and can also be costly depending on the project.
For many years, painted walls have reigned supreme in the world of interior design. Recently, however, wallpaper has made a re-emergence as a versatile way to add color or pop to home interiors. Peel and stick wallpaper has changed the game even further by providing a simple and easy way to add texture and color to any room without the hassle of hanging traditional wallpaper. Let’s take a look at the benefits of adhesive wallpaper.
Ease of Use
When you think of wallpaper, you probably envision yourself tackling huge panels of dripping material while you are covered in glue from head to toe. With peel and stick material, however, all of that is necessary. Think of this wallpaper as a big sticker that you line up and then apply to the wall. Without the paste and mess, you can apply self-adhesive wallpaper with little effort. Like other applications, you will need to ensure that your wall has a clean and smooth surface. Once the wall is prepped, you stick the wallpaper up and enjoy the new room!
Removable
One of the biggest benefits of self-adhesive wallpaper is that it is removable. If you find that you put it up a little crooked or want to change the room again in a year, it is easily removed. In most cases, you can pull it off and restick it again. Also known as temporary wallpaper, you can pull it down and replace it as often as you want without any damage to the wall.
Cleanable
Depending on where you stick wallpaper up, it can become dirty over time. Perhaps there was an accident in the kitchen, or your kids spilled something in the living room, and the walls got dirty. Wiping and cleaning your wallpaper won’t hurt it. Wiping your walls with a damp sponge or cloth is a great way to clean the wallpaper. Most manufacturers suggest that you don’t use detergents. However, a little warm water can clean your wallpaper right up.
Trendy
Another major benefit of vinyl peel wallpaper is that you can keep up with the latest trends in pattern, texture, and color. Self-adhesive materials with various wallpaper designs allow you to change out walls and redecorate your home as often as your style and trends demand. This new kind of wallcovering has become very popular with professional interior designers and DIYers alike.
There are many uses for removable wallpaper, from creating an accent wall to putting up a mural in your dining room. Not only is this new wallpaper trendy, but it is also easy to use and clean. If you are interested in making big changes in your home without a lot of money, you should consider hanging reusable wallpaper.
