Measure the walls. Use tape measure to determine height and width of space for fabric. Jot measurements down for reference. • 2. Choose fabric. Bring swatches of assorted backed fabrics home from fabric store and tape up on wall using painter's tape. In order for fabric to adhere to wall, it must have fabric or acrylic backing. Fabric without backing can be custom-backed by local fireproofing and backing shops. After a few days, decide which fabric works best in space. Keep in mind patterns with large repeats will require more yards, therefore will be more expensive. Smaller prints or textured fabrics require fewer yards, but might not be as impactful. • 3. Prepare walls. Comb walls with smoothing tool to get rid of any bumps. Fill nail and screw holes with spackle using a spackle knife. Once dry, lightly sand residue, then wipe with damp rag. Apply a coat of wallcovering primer using paint roller. Allow three hours for primer to dry. • 4. Cut fabric. Roll fabric out on long, flat surface. Refer to dimensions, and use tape measure and pencil to mark height on fabric. Allow 4 extra inches to account for waste, then cut using fabric scissors. • 5. Paste the wall. Dip paint brush in bucket of paste, and spread paste on wall starting from the top down. • Subscribe ► http://www.youtube.com/subscription_c... • Check Out Our Newsletter ► https://www.hgtv.com/about-us/hgtv-ne... • HGTV delivers families with relatable stories, superstar real estate and renovation experts and amazing home transformations that inspire a passionate audience.
