self sticking wallpaper

[wolf63]

I am going to decorate my small bathroom. The bottom half of the wall has wooden cladding stuff on it - I will leave that on. I want to put wallpaper on the top half of the wall. Do you get self sticking wallpaper? I want to do this with the minimum disruption to my life. Do you still get 'sticky back plastic' as in Blue Peter?

yes you can get ready pasted wallpaper,but i wouldent use it in the bathroom,unless you paste it as well to give it a real good paste cover to stay on,as the steam might take it off

I agree with the above answer, except to say I would go for the vinyl faced 'paper'. Steam won't affect it as much as ordinary wallpaper.

Again, agreeing with the above answer, dont be stingy with the paste, and get a paste designed for use with vinyls. These pastes contain a fungicide, so don't lick your fingers! Another thing, butt each piece you put up tight against the previous piece.

To make your life easier, avoid patterns!

I think the Blue Peter 'sticky back plastic you refer to is Fablon, or similar, but it's not intended for sticking on to walls.
