How Are Your Wallpaper Borders Printed And Made?
Your wallpaper borders are printed, cut and finished by hand by a team of skilled technicians. Extreme care and attention to detail is given to every order, to ensure an immaculate finish. When it comes to making borders for your walls, there are 2 options to choose from. The classic standard and the luxurious premium. Both papers look and feel beautiful, with matte finishes and lightly textured faces. The strength and durability is the same in both options, and they hold up brilliantly to scratches, abrasions and scuffs. Being environmentally friendly is a key mission of ours. As such, both papers are eco-friendly with no solvents or odours. We only use water-based inks and the premium option has a certified ECO-print.
There are a few subtle differences in the borders for wallpaper:
Standard: Your artwork is printed onto the chic, thick paper with a stunning matte finish, which offers a permanent print and very good print quality. Your paper comes with a 2 year guarantee for colour fastness when hung in an optimal area (out of direct sunlight). If you are planning on hanging your borders on dark walls, we suggest using a lining paper first or a coat of white paint.
Premium: This water activated paper requires no paste for application. Simply spray the wall and apply the borders where you wish. This stunning paper offers a permanent no-fade print, with super sharp print quality on a 100% opaque finish. Details and fine lines have incredible reproduction, while colours are crisp and vibrant.
Care Instructions
If you need to clean your wallpaper borders, then we recommend using a mild, soapy solution and a damp sponge. Use as little moisture as possible, and do not scrub at the dirt. Gently wipe instead. Although the colours will not run, if you scrub too hard, a natural nap in the paper might become visible.
Design Tips
It is important to consider the dimensions of the borders. Each strip measures 147 x 22cm, so it is vital to measure the total length and width of space that you are looking to cover. Use a tape measure so you ensure you order the right amount of paper. The quality of your artwork also plays an important factor. Once you upload your design, if you see a "low quality" warning, it is because your image is too small and it won't look its best when printed. If this is the case, try scaling your image down, or applying the tile effect. There are so many amazing design options for uploading onto your borders. Repeat patterns look striking, as do creative collages and typography. Have fun creating the perfect design for your project. When it comes to hanging your borders, they are not limited to just walls. If you have stair risers, then why not jazz them up a bit and put some spring in your step by creating borders for your stairs? See our images for design inspiration.

Frequently asked questions:
Are the wallpaper borders easy to apply?
Very easy. You will receive hanging instructions with your order. The standard paper requires basic wallpaper paste for application, however the premium is water activated and pre-coated with adhesive, so you simply need to spray the wall and apply.
How many different options of paper are there?
There are 2 different paper options for your wallpaper borders. Standard and premium. Both have the same matte finish with a textured face, however the premium offers a slightly higher quality print detail and an opaque finish.
Do I need to use lining paper?
You only need to use lining paper if you opt for the standard option. If you don't have lining paper, you could always apply white paint before the borders. The premium option is 100% opaque.
