DIY Idea - Removable Wallpaper

Tempaper Etta in Black and Clay and  Pearl

Removable wallpaper is a great solution if you live in a rental or have commitment-phobic tendencies. It comes in panels and has a low-tack adhesive backing which is repositionable.

Beyond being super-practical for you renters out there, the fact that the wallpaper is repositionable is especially handy when it comes to matching up a pattern repeat, which is one of the trickier parts of hanging wallpaper successfully.

Removable wallpaper is also reusable, provided you keep the backing paper. If you do want to reuse the wallpaper, it is imperative that the sticky side doesn’t get any dirt on it.

Any dirt or hair on the sticky part obviously will prevent it from adhering properly to the next surface you want to apply it to.

To prep for installing removable wallpaper, make sure any holes in the walls are filled in and the walls are primed and painted with an eggshell or semi-gloss finish. Installing temporary wallpaper is not recommended on walls with a flat paint finish.

Tempaper has some seriously gorgeous patterns in a variety of colorways for you to choose from. Their removable wallpaper is printed on vinyl and uses a water-based adhesive, so it can be applied in bathrooms or other potentially steamy areas.
