When you want to try a new look for your home, wallpaper comes into mind. The first thing you will be asked for is the measurement of wallpaper borders needed. You need to find out how to measure for wallpaper. This question will bug you for quite a while because you will need to consider the total cost. So, how to measure for wallpaper?
The design of wallpaper borders you want will play a vital role in learning how to measure for wallpaper.
• If you want vertical striped designed wallpaper, there will be no additions to your calculations. These are random match wallpapers that don't need to match with each strip.
• Straight across match designed wallpapers need to be matched with other strips of paper. While the designs of these stop before the edge of the wallpaper, you will just have to align them with each other.
• Drop match wallpapers have complex designs. Not only do these designs fully fill the entire paper, they need to be completely matched with the other strips. As for example, a flower may be cut in half at the edge of one strip. To match it with another strip, you will have to cut a part of the next strip just to match the pattern. This will have you end up ordering a few more rolls.
Most of the wallpaper borders today have coordinating wallpapers which really lend a wonderful backdrop to your bedroom design theme. If you select wallpaper that has a busier theme, try installing the wallpaper just above or below the chair rail. For a really finished look, select two separate coordinating wallpapers and place one above the chair rail and one below. This usually works best by placing the busier pattern on the bottom section of your wall while using a simple coordinate above the chair rail. A great example of this method is using a gingham or plaid pattern on the lower section of your wall with lovely faux wallpaper on the top
