Heritage – hallway wallpaper and trim

April 14, 2012

Continuing from the foyer wallpaper and trim post. I installed the wallpaper for the hallway, using plain drawing paper for the upper portion of the foyer. I like this material since the sheets are large (no seams on long walls), it has a nice texture and weight, and while it is a light color, it isn’t bright white. I used my usual method of scoring the paper to make tabs around corners. I find this makes for a cleaner finish.

The wallpaper on the bathroom side wall is Turquoise Gothic Stripe. Once the papers were glued in place, I glued the anaglypta border in the foyer. Interestingly, the white drawing paper reflects the blue of the other paper and brings out the complementary yellow in the Vintage White painted trims.

I haven’t glued the ceiling in place, but I propped it up to see the room enclosed. Not bad. :D
