When hanging wallpaper, it's important to ensure that the patterns match from one panel to the next in order to preserve visual consistency. That means carefully aligning the edges so that the pattern of one panel naturally blends into the next, while leaving no space in between. But that procedure can be tricky if you’re wallpapering corners. When you’re faced with a 90degree bend in the wall, how do you put wallpaper inside the corner without creating an unsightly mess in there?

Figuring out how to wallpaper a corner without creating a pattern mismatch or leaving an annoying gap beneath the wallcovering at the bend of the wall requires a little preparation on your part. Fortunately, placing wallpaper into corners isn’t really that difficult if you know what you’re doing. Even a nonprofessional can master the art of applying wallcoverings in these areas without the need for wallpaper corner edging or similar decorative solutions. And ROMAN Products is here to help you learn.

Our video tutorial shows you how to wallpaper corners to produce a seamless, elegant effect.

HOW TO HANG WALLPAPER IN A CORNER

1. Take your wallpaper to the corner and tack up each side of the paper on either side of the corner. Before working on the corner, ensure your pattern matches with previously hung wallpaper. Gently push the wallpaper into the corner while smoothing out the side pattern matched at the seam. Reposition the wallpaper as needed.

2. With the pattern match set, use a smoothing tool to firmly push the wallpaper into the inside corner. Then, place the smoothing tool against the wall and use a sharp snapblade knife to cut wallpaper at the corner. Be sure to work from the ceiling to the floor, changing to a new blade if necessary. Once the corner is cut, trim the excess paper from the top and bottom of the wallpaper section nearest the seam.

3. On the new wall, reposition the wallpaper as needed to match the pattern. Many inside corners are not perfectly square, so take care to ensure the outside wallpaper seam is straight and plumb. Smooth out any bubbles and trim excess paper at the ceiling and floor. Any residual wallpaper paste can be washed away with a damp rag or sponge.
