NextWall Lotus Floral Peel and Stick Wallpaper (Metallic Gold & Gray)

This wallpaper has a large pattern repeat so be mindful when computing your number of rolls. I started out by drawing a plumb line on the wall about 16 inches from the left side. This is to keep the wallpaper straight as you hang subsequent rolls. I did find that the paper does stretch and so when smoothing out the lines and bubbles be careful not to stretch the wallpaper. I used a small bathroom shower squeezy to smooth out the paper. My walls are textured but the wallpaper did adhere to the walls. In some spots I do see the texture where I rubbed the paper too much. But you have to look real close for that. The only difficult part was getting the hang of removing the backing as I worked down the wall. One time the paper backing did shred and didn't come off completely. So I had to mess with that. The other part is the wallpaper does stick to itself very well. You have to pry the paper apart very carefully. I placed the paper against the wall and pulled the stuck parts apart that way. Other than the two minor annoyances, I am extremely pleased. The pattern is beautiful and brings some elegance to my foyer.

My big takeaway – this is just absolutely beautiful. Better than it looked online, better than when it came in on the roll (honestly was nervous at first glance). However I am so happy to have this in my office, and I want to buy this for everywhere in my home! My staff has given it so many compliments.I by no means would say this is an easy process!! This small nearly perfectly square wall still took me 2 to 3 hours (though I am a perfectionist). Regardless I am vastly impressed by this product. Not only is that adhesion to the painted wall excellent, It’s also pliable. As I was working it would get stuck to itself here and there, or get stuck somewhere I didn’t want it to and it was very easy to pull off without struggling and it was still sticky enough to reattach several more times.My biggest problems were getting a good technique to pull enough of the backing off to give me working room without doing too much to stick to everything. After a bit this became a non-issue. It also took me a fair bit of effort to get the first piece lined up with the corner of the room. (I worked Left to Right though the directions suggest working from the middle out. I wanted to conserve paper.) The biggest annoyance one I suggested was a positive before - the pliability - when I went to work on the second row, the further I got down the wall, I’m not sure if the paper starting to stretch but the pattern would slowly become further off from lining up with the piece to the left. In the end, you can’t really tell when you’re looking at it overall, but it did frustrate me a bit while working on it!Overall I only ended up with one small tear you might be able to see in the closeup.All of this to say - I absolutely love this product. I think the price is a steal! And despite how time consuming this project was, I would … and will end up doing it again because it’s just that beautiful!

The media could not be loaded. I am loving the new peel and stick wallpapers. This one is so pretty. It’s high quality. It’s easy to use. The gold in it makes it perfect to use gold accents in the room. I loved it so much in my laundry room, I decided to put it in my pantry. The mistake I made was ordering at a different time. The color was off just a little bit but that’s my fault. It also peels off so easily without damaging your wall.

Love the ease of putting this wallpaper. I was able to do it myself for our guest bathroom in the basement

I feel this design is nice but a bit pricey for vinyl wall covering

This wallpaper is beautiful! For peel and stick it’s good quality. However, fair warning - this is not for a novice! The pattern is tough to match up, and it’s easy to get crooked. It may be easier on a 9’ length, not sure how often the pattern repeats. Since I did a half wall there was lots of waste to match the pattern, so I had to do a second order. Both batches matched perfectly though, and it was weeks in between because I had a delayed start. Other wallpapers have not been as consistent. I had to get creative in the back corner where the wallpaper ‘met’ to make it look decent. I blended by cutting out ont of the large lotus flowers (and only that)and putting it where it aligned, covering the most obvious pattern difference. You don’t notice at all unless you look for it. Overall this is gorgeous and we have gotten so many compliments on our half bath. I included a picture of the before (although a new mirror is in now, we hadn’t mounted the new one yet).

Wouldn’t stick to the wall and can’t return because out it up and then it fell down 😭…

It was and it wasn’t easy to install. Without any help, I was able to install myself, but it wasn’t a quick and easy process. You could easily lift and realign without the paper losing its stick thankfully, but you had to be so precise when lining it up to make the pattern match. I had a plastic taping knife and a shower door squeegee (more gentle, doesn’t cut the paper) to help with flattening out the paper, which helped a lot. The key on subsequent strips is to align from the left to the right instead of trying to go top down in one swoop. You constantly have to realign the paper to match exactly. At a certain point I got lazy and got as close as I could and used the scraps to just fill in little gaps in between the paper. If an electrical outlet made it unaligned, I just cut a little strip to cover the piece where the wall showed through. Not very difficult and blends pretty well. The end product looks great, so worth the frustration in my opinion. Just be sure to order an extra roll than you think you need. You lose a lot of length trying to match up the pattern, so it’s better to have extra from the correct lot number. Also be sure to save your scraps to help fill areas that are imperfect later.
