How to Remove Peel and Stick Wallpaper Without Damaging Walls

How to choose and install removing peel and stick wallpaper successfully

Choosing the right wall is the first step. Feature walls work best on the wall seen on entry to the room, or the wall behind the primary furniture arrangement. In bedrooms, the wall behind the bed is the most popular choice. This wall should ideally be free of large interruptions like windows or built-in wardrobes.

Pattern scale is the most important design decision after colour. In small rooms, avoid very large patterns that cannot complete a full repeat from floor to ceiling. Medium-scale patterns are the most versatile. Before ordering, measure your wall precisely — width and height in centimetres. Our wallpaper is custom printed to your exact dimensions, ensuring a precise fit with minimal waste.

We strongly recommend ordering a $4.99 sample before committing to a full order. Colour on screen can differ from colour in print, especially under specific lighting conditions. A sample lets you check the true colour and texture in your room before committing. Read our installation guide and our pattern matching guide before you begin. Contact help@oliveetoriel.com for any assistance.

Prepare your wall surface before installation. Smooth, clean walls give the best result for both peel and stick and paste-the-wall formats. Fill any holes or cracks and allow the surface to dry fully. If your wall has previously had wallpaper removed, ensure any adhesive residue has been cleaned away before applying new wallpaper.

Using removing peel and stick wallpaper in different rooms

Removing Peel and Stick Wallpaper adapts to different rooms with different approaches. Living rooms benefit from bold, large-scale designs on the feature wall. Bedrooms suit more restrained, atmospheric designs that contribute to a restful environment. Dining rooms can carry the most dramatic designs — a striking feature wall creates a memorable entertaining space. For home offices, consider how the wallpaper will appear in video calls; a considered, unfussy design tends to work best.

For children's rooms and nurseries, our kids wallpaper collection offers age-appropriate designs with the same quality and custom printing. For any room where you are uncertain, a $4.99 sample gives you a low-risk way to test the design in your space.
