The wallpaper on the corner of a wall in my house is starting to peel off. Any advice about the best way to glue it back?
Ben, here's a video that's been watched over a million times! As you work, just think how beautiful it's going to be!

Next, mix equal parts vinegar and warm water in a spray bottle or bucket and apply the mixture to the wallpaper liberally. Allow it to soak in for 15 minutes. Then use a scraper to remove the wallpaper. It should come off easily if you've used enough.
The only way I have ever done this is by renting a steamer at a big box store for 1 day and just get to it. It is tedious but all the wallpaper and glue comes off.
A steamer works good to remove wallpaper, but you should first score the wallpaper with a tool called a rabbit. That will score the paper so that the steam gets behind the paper faster. I hope that helps.
STOP!!!
