Hi there sweet kiddo!! Your project is gorgeous! im a fan of tropical leaves in my decor also, have been decorating my own homes for many years, many moves different homes, the summer cottage ..yadayada yada..ya da ya.. Im in a seniors complex now, and of course no changes are allowed.. so this idea inspires me.. Im going to look into it now.. something for my bedroom would be so nice.. Im hoping for a coastal theme on one wall at least! The hardest part will be to find the friend to help me, but ...I will persevere until I can do something to smarten this place up!
Its hard when you are used to having free rein in your own places and then are allowed nothing ..even though its called a “life lease”, and you pay for it up front also.. the seniors in this world seem to be getting the short end of the stick!🤑😪👎🏽... thanks for sharing.. BEST..CHERYL🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦..

O-M-G! I NEED the mini rental-reno videos! Specially this closet-to-be-home-office, cause I'm intrigued! I love your videos! Wish I could watch a new one everyday! Haha renovation

I love the look of this! One of the first things I did when we moved into our house was take the doors off a closet and turn it into my desk and it's one of my favourite places.

You can measure the width of the wallpaper and create marks on you wall. Then, using a spirit level, connect those marks to have a perfect vertical line that you can use as a guide to make sure you don't put the wallpaper crooked or slanted. That way, you can do it on your own. I covered two sides of my bedroom wall just by myself.

I love your wallpaper! It reminds me of Blanche from the Golden Girls (one of my favorite shows).

My fiancé and I are making some minor upgrades to our master bathroom and wallpaper was one of our missions to accomplish. He hates it and I have no experience with it but this thorough and detailed tutorial of yours definitely encouraged us a bunch! Thanks for taking the time to share. Much appreciated!

I am SO psyched for your new apartment makeover

Peel & Stick wall paper seems to be really in nowadays. Parts of our place needs re-doing and I've been wondering how this could go. Your tips and links are enlightening ie. I would have definitely 100% done it myself had you not advised getting help! Thank you sooo much for saving me ! 😅😅

OMG THANK YOU! finishing up college and finally rennovating my room. I am currently in an apartment and this is a wonderful solution instead of traditional wallpaper or painting.

[Calida]

Ahhh I have been so afraid to commit to a wallpaper lol. I should just do it! I love this one you choose too!

[chereswilliams]

Will this peel off during winter, when a heater is in use?

[vincenzo]

Wall looks great. Really enjoyed this video. Perfect timing!

[dilsterr]

Hey I have popcorn texture walls in my apartment but I really want to do a wallpaper like this. Do you have any suggestions for substitutes since it looks like this may not work on textured walls? Thanks!

[lisarae]

Does this leave the walls sticky? Do I need any other tools to take it off? Will it take off paint?

[ThatSnazzyGoose]

Great vid! Question, can slightly textured walls be wallpapered?

[pandasgym]

you have such a good taste! looks amazing <3
