Hi! How can we help?
Both look incredible — the difference is in how they go up (and come down).Removable wallpaper has a self-adhesive backing: just peel, stick, and smooth. It’s perfect for renters or anyone who likes flexibility.Traditional wallpaper uses paste for a more permanent, professional finish — ideal for long-term installations or high-traffic spaces.Either way, everything is printed in California on eco-friendly materials using water-based inks.
Yes — if your walls are smooth, clean, and fully cured.It won’t adhere to textured, stucco, or concrete surfaces, or to walls painted with Teflon, stain-resistant, or low-VOC paints.Before installing, wipe your walls with isopropyl alcohol (70%+) to remove dust and oils. Think of it as a quick refresh before your wall’s big moment.
Completely. Our wallpapers are printed with water-based inks on PVC-free, non-toxic materials.No harsh chemicals, no odor, no compromise — just beautiful, safe design made responsibly in California.
Yes — and we highly recommend it.Samples show the true color, scale, and finish in your lighting and decor, and they’re printed on the exact same material as your final wallpaper.
Measure each wall’s width and height, then use the Wallpaper Calculator on our product pages.

When applied correctly, it can stay up for years without peeling or fading.It’s durable yet removable — so when you’re ready for a new look, it comes off cleanly with no residue or wall damage.
Yes, as long as it’s not in direct contact with water or constant steam.Light humidity is fine. For high-moisture areas, our traditional wallpaper is the better choice.
Removable wallpaper can be repositioned during installation, but once it’s been fully adhered and later removed, it’s best treated as a one-time use.
Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the surface. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasives.Our wallpapers are washable, durable, and designed for everyday living.
We don’t recommend it. Old wallpaper can trap air or moisture and affect adhesion.For best results, remove the old wallpaper and start fresh on a clean, dry surface.
Yes — just drill carefully once the wallpaper is fully adhered.
When removing removable wallpaper later, go slowly around those areas to avoid tearing.
For heavier items, traditional wallpaper provides a more stable surface.
Removable wallpaper needs a smooth surface to adhere properly.
Textured, stucco, and concrete walls can cause bubbling or lifting.
If you love the look but your walls aren’t ideal, consider adding a thin smooth backing panel (like MDF or drywall board) first.
Technically possible, but not ideal. Paint may not bond evenly and could highlight seams or texture.
We recommend removing the wallpaper first — it comes off easily and leaves your wall ready to paint.
Wait at least 30 days after painting before applying wallpaper.
Fresh paint needs time to cure and off-gas.
Before installing, wipe the wall with isopropyl alcohol to remove any residue or dust.
With proper installation and care, traditional wallpaper can last 10–15 years or more.
It’s durable, cleanable, and made to age gracefully.
