TEAM PAINTING VS. TEAM WALLPAPER:
It’s easy to transform your space with a few coats of paint, but we are currently loving the dramatic impact that wallpaper can make in a room. Here are a few things to consider when deciding what to do in your home:
PREPARATION:
If you have to remove existing wallpaper, consult a professional. If you don’t strip the wallpaper with the right tools, you can risk damaging the wall. If you’re removing wallpaper to paint, keep in mind that you’ll need to apply spackle and prime before actually applying the paint.
DURABILITY:
While wallpaper can stand up to wear and tear (like if you have kids or pets), it might not be the best option for high moisture rooms like bathrooms or kitchens. If you’re painting, choose the correct finish (satin, eggshell, semi-gloss, high-gloss, flat) for your space.
COST:
Both paint and wallpaper can range in price and accommodate most budgets. On average, wallpaper tends to be more expensive between paper, supplies, and installation.
