    You can use paint grade panels that to get at the "Big Box" hardware store. It has even grooves in the panels. Sort of a "Cape Cod" look. With minimal tool's and skill, you can put it up. A few finishing nails, you can get the "Big Box hardware store to cut the panels for you, for a small fee.

    I had this issue too. The wallpaper was there for who knows how long. It was awful getting it off and the wall is in pretty bad shape in some places now. I am going to just lightly spackle those areas and paint. Mine is near the ceiling.

    Sand the edges of the wallpaper smooth and then paint with a texture type paint. I have used that and love it.
