Textured Wallpaper in Kitchen

I wanted a easy and frugal update to my kitchen. FYI I just removed the wallpaper and it came right down. It lasted 3 years.
I cleaned the walls with bleach water then sanded briefly with sandpaper.
I then wiped all the walls down and dried once more.
I used $14 textured wallpaper from Lowes. I soaked the paper for 30 seconds, then folded together for 5 minutes before placing on the wall. It's called booking and it's to fully activate the glue on the back. I then used a tool to flatten against the wall. I then used a small cutting knife that provided a clean cut on corners.
I love the outcome so far. This wallpaper is textured and can also be painted.
Enjoyed the project?

Sorry, is it paintable, I can hardly see it? I love the design though.

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
can I do this on textured walls?
Looked so nice. What did u seal it with?
I also did this and love it. It's been several years and I would like to remove and replace. Any suggestions as to how to reach that far back corner. My arms could hardly reach and I had quite a time getting the paper on there evenly and then triming it. At 74, lying on my countertop is not a good option.
