Painted walls in this new-build in the Woodland Heights neighborhood of Houston have been primed with Roman Pro 977 Ultra Prime wallpaper primer . DoneJust the area above the wainscoting / chair rail was papered . Obstacles to trim around included six doors – with a total of TWELVE corners of decorative molding to trim around. In addition, there were EIGHT terminations of wood ceiling beams , also with uneven edges , to trim around. Absolutely NO information came with the wallpaper . No run number , no installation instructions , no nuttin’. Confoundingly, the company’s website was malfunctioning, and pop-ups prevented me from getting information , or even from seeing what the pattern looked like on a large wall . So here I am rolling the paper out on the floor , to get a scope of the pattern and layout . Note the unprinted selvedge edge , which I’ll have to trim off using a straightedge and a razor blade. See previous posts (do a Search) to learn more about this.The pattern is called Kanoko and the manufacturer is Relativity Textiles . This material was VERY difficult to work with. More about that in a future post.
Back door entry accent wall before.Done and dramatic!This overs-scaled floral on a black background has become infinitely popular. But you don’t need to pay designer prices for the big name brands. As I like to say, for every high-end manufacturer making a cool design that’s expensive and probably difficult to work with, there is someone else making a knock-off that is affordable and better quality. This is a very good alternative to the big name. It even has these beautiful humming birds. Graham & Brown makes scores of designs, printed on a really nice non-woven , paste the wall substrate. One of my preferred brands. Their version of this floral is called Allure . The home is in the Hobby Airport area of Houston .
