The wallpaper tools you use can make the difference between a first class job and a disaster. AsktheBuilder.com Tim Carter shows the basic wallpaper tools he uses to hang wallpaper -a tape measure, razor knife, several metal knife blades, levels, a smoothing brush or plastic smoothing tool and a large sponge. With the right wallpaper tools, you'll have no problem getting the results you want.

Also,Your paper should have time to expand,due to moisture in the adhesive and I would also recommend practicing relief cuts BEFORE going around window area,make your mistakes BEFORE you use your paper. Don't rush,have time to do it.

I like DIY tasks but things like these... I like to leave to the pros.

I've hung for 20 years in upscale markets,He shows good tool selection and tips, I like to use table clamps though to keep the paper from come up on the roller while pasting or wetting.. some papers pre-paste are bad and you should use a good commercial clear adhesive. Like Romans.

some useful info, I would have liked to have seen on the hanging and where to start your first drop, internal and external corners.

As you can see, this one was just about tools. I am getting ready, in about a month, to do an entire series on hanging wallpaper. I will show all you need to know.
