Materials of vintage wallpaper

There are two types of materials when it comes to wallpaper. Vinyl wallpaper or structured wallpaper. Both are attractive options and come with some benefits.

Vinyl wallpaper as vintage wallpaper

If durability is a key factor in deciding your vintage wallpaper then vinyl wallpaper is a great choice for you. It is extremely strong and waterproof, which makes it an ideal choice as kitchen wallpaper where some light staining may occur. This can then be scrubbed off with a sponge for effective and easy maintenance.

Structured wallpaper as vintage wallpaper

Textured and embossed wallpaper is a fantastic way to enhance the overall design of a room by adding a captivating 3D effect. This modern style of wallpaper is crafted using sophisticated machinery and techniques, resulting in a luxurious touch that can elevate any space. By incorporating these wallpapers into your interior design, you can create a perfect mix and match with designer wallpapers, allowing for endless possibilities in expressing your unique style. This combination adds depth and dimension to your walls, making them visually intriguing and transforming them into focal points within the room.

Installation of vintage wallpapers

The paper in this category varies between two installation methods; paste the wall and paste the paper. You should always check the recommended installation method from the manufacturer before installing the wallpaper.

Paste the wall wallpaper

For paste the wall wallpaper you must paste the wall and then adhere the paper to the wall by pressing Firmly on the paper, smoothing out any bubbles. You have to take a chance to attach the vintage wallpaper.

Paper backing wallpaper

Paperbacked wallpaper is less expensive than vinyl, so it is considered cheap wallpaper. It can be a little bit trickier to deal with when installing. This is because it can absorb the paste quickly and dimensional stability can be compromised.
