Want to update a wall in only a few hours with major impact results? See how I created this fabulous water color effect wall in my daughters bedroom using a Photowall wall mural.

Kit


This is the panels and the wallpaper accessory kit along with the directions. Get familiar with what each pieces does and read the instructions well.

Bedroom wall all ready to go


Step one; move furniture out of the way, be sure your wall is super clean, remove outlet covers and lay down some drop cloths.

Wall paper panels


Cut your panels at the marked lines and set in order along a wall

Mix wallpaper paste


Using a large plastic bucket, mix the powdered wall paper paste according to the included directions.Note for the wall I did I only needed half the package in the end so in the future would mix only half up. Using the brush apply the paste about 2 panels wide on the wall

Cut wallpaper if needed


I am old school trained and cut my paper prior to putting on the wall. Be sure to measure twice and cut once as this is a one shot deal. It is a mural so you cannot find a matching pattern farther down the roll.

Hang first panel


Mark a level line the panel width away from the wall. Hang the first panel with the edge along this mark. Smooth from the center out up and down to remove any trapped air.

Seam roller


Then use the seam roller to make the seams smooth and disappear.

Panel progress


Continue applying paste and panels from left to right along the wall.

Wall complete

    How much did the mural cost for a wall that size? I had looked into this but the price was insane. I ended up painting an ombré wall
