How to make bamboo wallpaper

The use of bamboo in the production of wallpaper, today, has become far from uncommon. This is facilitated not only by the amazing appearance of the wallpaper made using bamboo, but also by its durability. Such wallpapers are somewhat more difficult to glue than their paper counterparts, but the visual effect of such wallpapers is much higher.

Preparing the walls for gluing

In order for the wallpaper to be smooth and even after gluing, the surface must be carefully prepared. As a preparation, remnants of old wallpaper or any other coating are removed from the walls. The surface of the walls is carefully leveled. If necessary, it is necessary to level the walls and cover all cracks with plaster. Special attention should be paid to the corners.
Most craftsmen forget about the importance of proper plaster corners. However, corners play one of the most important roles in giving the appearance to the walls. Agree, the crookedly drawn angle immediately catches the eye.

After performing the plastering work, the walls must be plastered and cleaned. The putty will cover up all the small cracks and holes in the plaster. Cleaning the putty is necessary in order to make the walls perfectly smooth and even. After all the above steps are completed, the surface of the walls must be primed.

Gluing

There are many methods of wallpapering. Each of them has the right to exist. However, the method of gluing bamboo wallpaper is somewhat different from others. First, you need to calculate the number of strips that can be obtained from one roll. To do this, we divide the total length of the roll by the height of the room. This way we will know how many full strips we will get from one roll. Then the strips must be cut to the specified sizes.

If there are any leftovers during the cutting of the strips, do not rush to throw them away. The remnants can be used to paste over small areas of the wall such as above the window, above the door, under the window.

It is necessary to glue bamboo wallpaper joint to joint. Bamboo wallpaper is much denser than paper wallpaper, so it does not shrink after the glue dries. Glue must be applied both to the wall surface and to the wallpaper itself. Having soaked the wallpaper and walls with glue, it is necessary to press the wallpaper against the wall and carefully smooth it out. It is not recommended to move the wallpaper after pressing it against the wall.

Without proper experience, gluing bamboo wallpaper alone is quite problematic. If you do not have the necessary experience in wallpapering, it is better to invite a specialist.
