Walls should be clean and smooth as possible, so if the walls and has a wallpaper before we withdraw and if they have cracks or other imperfections we fill them and correct them before installing new wallpaper. Then we take the height dimensions of the wall or industry sector that we will decorate, to cut the paper (should cut an extra inch of the action taken). Note that after the first strip cut is necessary in the following match the prints, so it may be necessary to trim any segment. For the sizing of paper it is essential to follow the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the correct procedure and not at risk of wasting the paper.
We began to place the paper from top to bottom, leaving an inch above the junction of the wall with the roof, pushing them to adhere to and continue to put down (we can also draw a vertical line that serves as a guide to place the first right guide). Once placed with a spatula pressed the paper along the ceiling and along the floor or base to remove all air and cut the excess (do likewise in the angles of junction of the walls so that the paper does not break). Repeat for the following strips placed, ensuring that the designs match. When we find window and door frames and outlets continue with the hit and left to cut the end edges.
Enlarge the Room – Decoration Ideas

But we want to give you a few tips and tricks to increase the size of a room, even visually. With these small gestures are going to show then you can enlarge these tiny bedrooms and offer a little more scope and visual beauty.
There are different techniques that allow us to create an illusion of more spacious room, a semblance of a size greater than it actually has. These techniques are simple and accessible to all.

There are different techniques depending on the size of the room that want to expand visually. Some are useful in very small room, while others are more rooms in a larger size of a medium size. In these two types we have grouped sizes, and so we are going to show you.
And we’ll start with the measures for very small rooms. The first thing we look at is the color of the walls. We choose a very light color for the walls, even white. The ceiling should be white. It also uses a light color for the frame and door moldings and windows. Choose shades of the same color as the wall color or very similar. So they will blend with the decor. Also, you should choose a curtain that let you spend as much light as possible.
We exploit and maximize all that natural light entered the room through the window. If the room has no natural light and we have to use artificial light sources, using a uniform light source, avoiding the light and shadow. The living room furniture should be light and no frills. Remember that furniture on feet, feet visible, give an impression more air and provide a greater sense of space.
If your room is of average size, not too small, it allows you more flexibility in decorating. It gives us more options. For example, when choosing the color of the paint on the walls, you have a wider range of colors, not only very light colors or white. You should certainly choose. While there will always be pale colors or pastel type cameo. You can also choose the option of placing wallpaper. In that case, you can choose light-colored or with small motifs.
The ceiling should remain white, as happened in the smaller rooms. For the curtains, however, may have colors identical to those on the walls, or a little more obscured, but following the same tones of the wall. You can also choose a color the same as the reasons for the wallpaper.
In a general way, be aware that there are some materials that favor more than others the sense of space: the pale wood of beech or pine, metal, mirrors, satin fabrics, glass … You can opt for this type of material When buying new objects for interior decoration.
