If there is no mantel in the space, the very first width should be hung in between the windows. "Wallpaper patterns may be divided into two principal classes, the ""one-top"" or straight pattern papers, and the ""two-top"" or drop patterns. It is required to cut these papers so that the design matches when hung. For this reason consideration of the design is required before cutting such documents. The top of a flower or figure must not be halved. The paper should be so put that a whole flower or figure must be left about a 1/2 inch listed below the image molding. A ""one-top"" or straight-patterned paper is one in which the design matches on opposite sides of the paper.
They are basic and helpful for projects in a kid's restroom, with patterns that match the bathroom components or bathtub. Before cutting the paper, the required length is to be figured out. When this has actually been done, the paper is unrolled face up. Let us assume that the wall to be covered is 8' high. Allowance needs to be made for cutting and cutting at the top and bottom. This ought to be at least 6"". It may be essential to cut more depending upon the pattern. For example, a paper might have a pattern which is 12"" high.
If there is no room at the top for trimming, the entire pattern needs to be cut off given that, as has actually been said, the top must always have an entire pattern resting about 1/2"" below the image molding or ceiling line. Allowing 6"" for trimming, the length of the strips to be cut will be 8', 6"". The table is 7' long. Take the roll of paper in the left hand, lay it on the table and, with the right-hand man, pull out 11/2"" from the roll. Let this hang over completion of the table, and then unroll 7', which will cover the length of the table. Analyze the design to figure out the very best place to cut, bearing in mind that the top of the pattern will be about 1/2"" listed below the image molding.
This very first piece might be a little bit longer in order to get the leading right. The rest of the paper is cut into equivalent lengths of 8' 6"". Do refrain from doing this in the bathroom. No bath tub is a great table, even if it is a walk-in bathtub. A ""two-top"" or drop pattern is one in which the design does not fall straight opposite. In a drop pattern, every other length drops one half of a pattern. If the pattern is 20"" long, for example, the adjacent pattern will be 10"" below this.
It can be seen, then, that a drop pattern paper can not be cut the like a straight-pattern paper. If all lengths were cut the exact same, every other length would not match at the top This is specifically obvious in little places like restrooms, where the wallpaper is one of the only things to look at while waiting for the sauna or sitting in the tub. The wallpaper is visible from the shower as well. The most convenient way to cut these papers is to take lengths from separate rolls. Cut the first length as described for a ""one-top"" pattern. Lay this aside. Cut the next length off the other roll, matching it at the top.
Continue to cut lengths alternately from one roll and the other, keeping the two separated. The very first, 3rd, 5th, and so on, lengths will have one top, while the second, 4th, 6th, and so on, will be different. Before hanging the first width, the location at which to begin must be figured out. This is discovered by choosing which the most prominent walls are. They are generally those in between windows and over the mantel. Then identify the least obvious location in the room and plan the work to finish there, so if an inequality takes place, it will be least noticeable. If there is no mantel in the space, the very first width must be hung between the windows.
Then follow around to the right, covering one side of the room. Return to the window end and paper the other side. By this plan of treatment, you will constantly have good light. If you are operating in a restroom without any windows, attempt affixing a brilliant lamp onto the shower tray or the shower doors (this might be challenging with frameless shower doors) to remove most shady corners. If there is a mantel in the space, the very first pieces are put there, because it is the most obvious point.
The wall over the mantel is marked so that the paper will be centered. This treatment is as follows: Measure the width of wall over the mantel to find the center. Draw a line through this center. If the area requires 4 widths, position the very first width of paper with its center on the center line of the mantel. A full width is put to the left and right of the center piece. These three widths are short lengths. The staying part will be covered with two partial widths of full length. Cut these 1/2"" larger than required, so as to have the edges turn the corner."
