Wallpaper is pretty easy now, it’s just like a big sticker. Looks like you did the old school kind? Why did you start in the center of the wall and not the corner?

It was getting pretty easy by the time I finished up.
I started on the 2nd panel because YouTube told me not to start right up against the wall because of how often they're bowed or crooked. Ended up being good advice I think.
Took a few panels to get the hang of it, but the last 2 only took me about 20 minutes each. We used roll on glue and not adhesive because the wall was textured. I still sanded it all first though

It’s really popular again. They have rolls of it and they just stick to the wall like a sticker. Tons of designs, easy to remove when you get sick of it. Just don’t buy the super cheap kind.

Anything good at big box store or where to look? Seems like a good option for my gun room. Was looking at cheap thin wall panels, but cutting that seemed like a pita and then i assumed you had to tack nail.

Nah, the new vinyl peel n stick stuff you just put a blow dryer on it and it peels right off. There is cheap shit that’s not vinyl that is a pain in the ass and hard to get off though. We’ve replaced our fake backsplash with the good vinyl stuff a few times, it was painless.
Here’s a few areas of our house with various patterns.

When we had our basement roughed out, before they installed the toilet we put that wallpaper up. When the owner of the company came by a few days later he was shocked that we had tiled it so fast. I told him it was wallpaper, he went over and touched and was blown away. We then showed him the other spots in our house that were wallpapered. He hadn’t seen the easy to install stuff before. He asked if we would be willing to do installs for him if he started offering it as an option.
We did a ladies nursery, a wall in his basement when he finished it, and a kids wall in his house. Anyways the wall in his house was cool, it was a kids version of a world atlas the size of an entire wall. It made me think of how badass some of

old timey maps would look on an entire wall.

It’s 100x easier and faster than a real backsplash, plus a lot cheaper. Being vinyl, splashed food, sauce, etc wipe off easily like a real backsplash. Bonus you can change it when the wife gets tired of it. Here’s the current one versus the earlier one I posted earlier.

I might do one of the vintage maps from the website I linked in my daughter's room. She hasn't seen the nursery yet but I'll show her todayWhen we had our basement roughed out, before they installed the toilet we put that wallpaper up.

Bro, if there is one thing the internet has taught me, it's that you never, ever give feet pics for free.
