1. When you select wallpaper for the walls of your room, you definitely need to decide on the type of wallpaper.
2. Since I live in Ukraine, we don’t have much where you can buy really good wallpapers, I in Kiev buy wallpaper for walls through a local online store that has a large assortment of elite and high-quality wallpapers. It is important for me that the wallpaper is of good quality, the better the quality of the wall-paper, the longer they will last you.
3. If you yourself do not know how to glue wallpaper, you should definitely turn to those people who do this professionally.
Once I made a big mistake and parts of my kitchen were pasted with textile wallpapers, they told me that this should not be done, but at that time I did not understand why. a year later, I had to change this wallpaper, as the fabric in the wallpaper was saturated with the smell of the kitchen.
The choice of wallpaper should be approached very responsibly.

I pondered the question and write out my recommendations for choosing wallpaper on the wall.
Important rules for choosing wallpaper on wall
1. Try on wallpaper on the wall. The difficulty with buying wallpapers is basically to project a pattern in your mind from a sample roll onto the wall in the room. This task is not easy even for experienced designers, so try to make it easy in every way. Firstly, you need to look at the wallpaper not in a packed roll, but rolled out a roll of 1-2 meters
2. Choose a wallpaper from one collection. Designers from many manufacturing companies have already done the work for you, picking out well-harmonious wallpapers in one collection. As a rule, such a collection may consist of several plain wallpapers and several wallpaper with a pattern. At the same time, all wallpapers are perfectly combined with each other.
3. Correct combine patterns and colors. If you do not want to use wallpapers from one collection, then follow our tips for combining wallpapers with different patterns and shades. Choose the combination that you like best and fits the selected room: plain wallpaper and patterned wallpaper, wallpaper with different patterns, wallpapers of different colors and others.
4. Each room has its own type of wallpaper. It is not about the fact that you need to paste over each room with wallpaper with a different pattern, but about the fact that there are several types of wallpaper and some of them are suitable in certain rooms more than others.
5. Carefully read the certificate. Certified vinyl wallpapers are tested and meet hygiene standards. It is these wallpapers that are produced by reputable manufacturers. If you doubt the harmlessness of the wallpaper, it is better to ask for a certificate.
It is worth choosing wallpaper in trusted stores, for example, through the website: https://rulon.net.ua/katalog-oboev/ or other online catalogs and stores in your city. It is important that the store has a quality certificate and provides a guarantee for the goods sold.

I always choose vinyl wallpaper for my rooms. I really like this type of wallpaper, in my house there are vinyl wallpapers in the kitchen, bedroom, living room. This is my favorite type of wallpaper. The main criterion for my choice of wallpaper is beauty, the wallpaper should be pleasing to the eye and should not be bored. Wallpaper should be such that after a working day, while in the room, they help to relax.

While vinyl wallpaper can be a safe choice for wall cladding, it also comes with some downsides. First, they may have an odor that can be harmful to health, especially for people with allergies or asthma. Also, vinyl wallpaper may be less environmentally friendly than other types of wallpaper as it may contain plastic components.
Vinyl coverings may be less breathable than other types of wallpaper. This can lead to ventilation and condensation problems, especially in damp areas such as bathrooms or kitchens.

Wall mural is a good option, but it is a wallpaper for a certain age.

Wall murals are a pretty good idea. Well, so that friends would not laugh at your child, you just can change the old wallpaper in a couple of years.

The right selection of wallpapers for is that if you are going to replace your old wallpaper, you should choose high-quality and good wallpaper. Do not look for cheap options, I recommend buying some kind of good brand wallpaper. Do you already know which brand you are going to buy wallpaper on the wall?

No, I have not yet decided which brand to buy wallpaper for the walls? Which ones do you recommend to watch? It is important for me that the wallpaper is reliable and environmentally friendly. I read that paper and vinyl wallpapers count the most environmentally friendly wallpapers.

Yes, where to find wallpapers of any brand, I think it will not be difficult for me. We are doing repairs in all rooms and now I’m trying to sort out the question of how to choose the right wallpaper for a child’s room, kitchen, living room. I already read some of the recommendations that fabric wallpapers should not be used in places where dirt can get, this is in the kitchen and in the hallway. But paper wallpapers say you can’t use where there is a lot of moisture, it’s in the toilet, bathroom and in the kitchen.
