Wallpapering a room with different wallpapers. Combining wallpaper, wallpaper inserts and other ideas

In this part, I will directly talk about the technology of gluing vinyl combined wallpaper on a non-woven base using a specific example. If anyone hasn’t read, then by combined I mean wallpaper from the same series, but in different colors. For a more detailed understanding of the process, I will give names to different rolls of wallpaper, as shown in the photo below:

The material in the article is quite voluminous, so if you are interested in specific points, then use the navigation menu:

1. Selection and preparation of glue

One of the most important points The process of wallpapering walls is the choice of glue. Only high-quality glue will ensure the most reliable adhesion of wallpaper to the wall surface and will avoid problems in the future. At the moment, there are a huge number of types of wallpaper on the market, differing in their composition. There is a specialized adhesive for almost every type of wallpaper.

I used Quelyd adhesive designed for glass and non-woven wallpaper. This glue is a white powder that must be diluted in water. If you decide to use this glue, then detailed instructions The proportions are indicated on the packaging. Also on the packaging you can find information about the pasting area for which the adhesive composition should be enough.

To prepare the glue you will need a small plastic bucket with a volume of about 5 liters. You need to fill the bucket with the calculated amount of water (see information on the packaging) corresponding to the amount of glue you are going to use. Next, you need to start mixing the water with a brush, creating a small whirlpool and at the same time carefully pour in the glue. The whole process must be carried out gradually, slowly, to avoid the formation of glue lumps. After preparing the glue, you need to let it sit for 15 minutes, then stir vigorously and get to work.

Important: do not dilute all the glue at once, prepare at least ¼ of it and try it. Firstly, it will be possible to adjust the consistency in the future, and secondly, you may simply not master all the glue, and fresh glue it's much more enjoyable to work with.

2. Where should you start gluing wallpaper?

This question is asked by everyone who is faced with wallpapering for the first time. Previously, in Soviet times, they were widely used paper wallpaper, which were glued overlapping, it was necessary to start pasting the walls from the window, in which case the joints between the wallpaper natural light were the least noticeable.

Nowadays the vast majority of wallpaper is glued end to end. Therefore, you should choose the starting point for pasting based on the following considerations:

• Convenience. For example, it is more convenient for me to glue wallpaper, moving from left to right, that is, joining and aligning the left edge of the strip;
• Wallpaper consumption. Before you start pasting, you need to figure out how you can reduce consumption and rationally use wallpaper scraps;
• Individual characteristics. In the example given in this article, I start gluing from the corner of the room, since this is the only way to ensure an even and neat joint combined wallpaper;

3. Technology for gluing wallpaper on a non-woven basis

I would like to highlight general points that will help you understand the principle of wallpapering walls with non-woven wallpaper:

1. Wallpaper strips are cut depending on the height of the wall and the margin for adjustment. For example, if the wallpaper is monotonous (without adjustment), then we only need to take into account the height of the wall and the margin for trimming at the ceiling and floor (no more than 10 cm), and if the wallpaper has a pattern that requires adjustment, then accordingly we need to take into account the height of the wall, and a margin for fitting, and a margin for trimming. The margin for adjustment depends on the vertical pitch of the pattern;

   If you are afraid that you may incorrectly calculate the length of the strip required for fitting, then cut the wallpaper in place. That is, you need to glue the first strip, then unroll the roll, match the pattern on the roll with the already glued strip, make a mark and cut off the strip of wallpaper

2. Wallpaper glue applied to the wall apply a roller to an area slightly larger than the width of the wallpaper strip; it is more convenient to coat the corners with a brush;
3. Wallpaper strips are glued end to end. The strip of wallpaper begins to be glued from top to bottom, slightly leading to the ceiling, and at the same time it is aligned either along a vertical drawn line (if this is the first strip on the wall) or along the edge of the already pasted strip of wallpaper;
4. Then the wallpaper strip is smoothed out; air bubbles and excess glue must be expelled. Movements must be made from the center of the strip to its edges. For smoothing, use a plastic spatula, a dry, clean cloth or a wallpaper brush;
5. The glue protruding from the wallpaper joint must be removed with a damp, clean cloth;
6. The wallpaper joint must be carefully ironed; a special roller is used for this, but you can also use a plastic spatula;
7. Excess wallpaper on top and bottom is trimmed with a utility knife using a metal spatula.

4. How to match wallpaper of different colors in the corner of a room?

This is one of the first questions that arises when wallpapering walls. different color. We will try to analyze it in as much detail as possible.

The method of joining wallpaper discussed below is called “trimming” or “trimming” the wallpaper in the corner.

The essence of the method is that the wallpaper is glued with a slight overlap, then a cut is made along this overlap, respectively, through two layers of wallpaper at once, the excess wallpaper is removed, and the joint is smoothed.

In my case, wallpapers of different colors are joined, so the boundary between the canvases should pass strictly along the corner of the room, and accordingly the cut is made along the corner, but if strict separation of the wallpaper in the corner is not required, then it is better to make the cut on one of the walls, stepping back a small distance from the corner (5-15 mm), this way the joint will be smoother.

An example of wallpaper joining in the corner of a room:

Step 1. We need to draw two vertical lines on adjacent walls, this is done with a simple pencil. Since the width of the roll (in my case) is 53 cm, and the overlap needs to be about 5 cm, then you need to step back about 48 cm from the corner of the wall, in one direction or the other, and draw vertical lines using a building level or plumb line.

Step 2. Then we need to apply glue within these lines. Take a roller and a tray of glue and carefully apply the glue to the wall, hard to reach places(corners) coat with a brush.

Step 3. We take a strip of patterned wallpaper and carefully glue it from top to bottom, smoothing out any unevenness with a special plastic spatula, or you can also use a clean cloth or wallpaper brush.

In the photo below we see that the wallpaper is glued with an overlap on the adjacent wall within 5 cm:

Step 4. We cut off excess wallpaper that extends onto the floor or ceiling using a metal spatula.

Step 6. Carefully smooth out the wallpaper in the corner:

1. It is very important that the knife is sharp, then the joint will be neat and even.

2. It is much more convenient to make a cut with two people: one holds the spatula, the other cuts.

Step 8. Removing cut strips of wallpaper:

In my case, the “patterned” wallpaper was underneath the “green” wallpaper, so I peel back the wallpaper a little (photo above) and pull out a cut strip of “patterned” wallpaper:

Step 9. The wall under the folded wallpaper must be coated with glue using a brush, and then the wallpaper must be pressed tightly against the wall:

Step 10. Smooth out the wallpaper at the joint with a plastic spatula. The wallpaper joint in the corner is ready:

If you use plain or striped wallpaper, then it is more correct to make the joint not in the very corner of the room, but on the wall, 10-20 mm away from the corner, this way it is easier to make a neat cut and the seam will be smooth

5. Wallpapering around switches and sockets

If the socket and switch have not yet been installed, then steps 1 and 2 can be skipped:

1. De-energize the switch or socket, and then carefully remove it from the socket and disconnect the wire;
2. Hide the wire in the socket so that it does not interfere with the pasting, having previously insulated it;
3. Paste a piece of wallpaper over the hole for the switch or socket;
4. Take a utility knife and make a circular cut along the outline of the hole;
5. Carefully smooth out the wallpaper with a plastic spatula next to the hole.

6. Pasting the room with combined wallpaper. Main stages.

After making the joint in the corner, you choose which direction to move. I started covering the wall with “green” wallpaper. Having almost completely covered this wall, I left space only for the outer strip, since it needs to be joined through the slot with the “white” wallpaper.

Then I returned to corner No. 1 and began to move towards the window, covering the wall with “patterned” wallpaper:

Then, in corner No. 2, I joined the “patterned” wallpaper with the “white” wallpaper using the same technology that was presented above, that is, through a slot. The docking process is shown in the photo:

I left the wall with the window for last, since it was necessary to replace the radiator and paint the heating riser. I moved to a long wall with “white” wallpaper (item No. 17 according to the diagram), again drew a vertical line along the level and began to paste the wall from left to right.

In corner No. 4 I made a junction of “white” wallpaper with “green” wallpaper (photo below):

IN last resort, as mentioned above, I took up the wall with the window.

The main task when covering this wall was to join the wallpaper through the cut above and below the window. The point is that due to the window opening, the height of the joint in in this case will be minimal, and the joint located under the window can be hidden under the heating radiator. Therefore, the pasting diagram shows that the movement when pasting wallpaper is carried out from the corners to the center of the wall. Strips 33 and 35, as well as 30 and 32 are joined through a slot. The pasting process is clearly shown in the photo below:

Before gluing two types of wallpaper, it is worth studying the theoretical part of the process and the recommendations of designers. Wallpaper is considered the most popular material used to decorate a room. They are low cost and very high technological characteristics. If you want to create a stylish and unusual interior, then it is best to use a combination of several types of canvases.

How to hang wallpaper of two colors in a living room: photo with description

When the selection of options suitable for combination in the hall is completed, the question arises of how to properly hang the canvases on the wall. Wallpaper is very easy to attach to walls, but when using materials with different textures and patterns, some problems may arise.

If you combine wallpaper with stripes, try to cut them so that the patterns look complete. Thus, it is best to combine canvases with small, often repeating patterns.

If you are using a combination of dark or bright colors, then keep in mind that the slightest gaps between the canvases will immediately catch your eye. If you are not sure that you can glue the wallpaper perfectly evenly, then contact a professional.

If the room is small, then when decorating it you should give preference to light shades

Hanging wallpaper with different textures is not an easy task. If the canvases have different thickness, then the joints between them will be very noticeable. To hide them, you will have to select baseboards and moldings.

The most important condition for ideally gluing two types of wallpaper is high-quality preparation of the walls. If this is not done, the finish will look untidy, or even fall off the walls.

Preparing walls for wallpapering consists of the following steps:

• Leveling the wall with gypsum putty;
• Removing uneven surfaces from a dry putty surface using a spatula;
• Wall primer;
• Applying the finishing layer of putty;
• Sanding the wall with a special mesh;
• Treating the wall with a primer.

After completing all these steps, you will get a perfectly smooth wall ready for hanging two types of wallpaper. All you have to do is cut the canvases into the necessary parts and glue them to the wall.

Choosing wall coverings has always been a responsible task. Wallpaper helps to fully embody the desired design style or becomes a harmonious background beautiful composition. Combining wallpaper in the interior is a combination of different patterns, colors, textures. Experts from all over the world use this original approach not only because of its aesthetic appearance, but also in order to hide minor imperfections in the room, visually expand/narrow the space, correct the geometry, divide the room into two separate zones using contrasting zoning.

Combining vertical stripes of different shades of the same color (blue and dark blue) or textures (glossy and matte) helps make the room more spacious and bright. Large and small stripes, dark or light, can also alternate. Today, vertical combination also allows you to move away from strict order and use vertical fragments on a plain background. A vertical combination of wallpaper will complement the design of a room in the following styles: classic, hi-tech, grunge, loft.

Horizontal combining

This type of room decoration involves combining two types of trellises (having different textures) and creating panels. Horizontal stripes can be combined with plastic/wooden beams or other types of finishing materials (e.g. decorative plaster). To make the design look elegant, it is advisable to decorate the lower part of the wall with trim or wallpaper that can imitate it, and decorate the higher part with non-woven wall covering.

The use of large and small ornaments can be an excellent practical solution for correcting uneven walls. With the right combination, you can easily isolate one focal point in a room ( sleeping area, corner for guests, work zone in the kitchen). The following options are well suited for this purpose: stylish damask patterns, small zigzags, geometric shapes, floral prints, intertwined lines. Don’t forget about the play of two colors – brighter and neutral. This design option will look great in style directions art deco, modern, eclecticism, pop art.

But if you want to decorate your bedroom without disturbing the atmosphere of calm and tranquility, then the following options are suitable: focusing on one item or focusing on your creativity/hobby. With the help of brighter wallpapers you can emphasize stylish bed, fireplace or unusual shelving, and make the rest of the background less catchy.

Combining wallpaper in a nursery

The wall covering of a children's room should correspond to the mood and character of the child, his tastes and interests. Based on this, you can make a choice in favor of vertical, horizontal or other type of combination. Most often, a patchwork design option is used for children's rooms. This is a complex technique made from scraps of different wallpapers, which with its slightly chaotic and colorful appearance can appease any child. A variety of textures, patterns and ornaments will give the room a special cheerful mood, which is necessary for psychological health children.

Wallpaper for walls is a very flexible finishing material that gives you the opportunity to dream up and get creative from the heart. They are used not only as the main decoration of walls, but also for accentuation, decoration, and improvement. Wallpaper helps create the desired mood, highlight the right areas, and create visual effects. Wallpaper can be used in different ways: on the entire wall or on small area, whole strips or pieces, one sheet or several.

Wallpaper creativity, among other things, allows you to save money. Stores often sell leftover wallpaper at bargain prices. You can buy interesting samples for pennies and arrange them together. For some people, this turns into a hobby: they buy wallpaper one roll at a time and use it not for basic finishing, but for design and decoration. Fortunately, many ways have been invented, and here are just some of them.

1. One vertical stripe

This is a pretty bold move. Used to add a touch of color or theme to the interior. Creates external variety, relieves a smooth monochromatic wall from visual emptiness. Wallpaper is preferable to bright, active ones.

2. Several vertical stripes in different areas

Single stripes can be located at a distance from each other or even at different walls. This technique helps to emphasize or indicate symmetry. For example, stripes can be glued on both sides of a sofa, bed, or closet.

3. Combination of different wallpapers on one sheet

The composition of different wallpapers is spectacular and very unusual. It is recommended to combine wallpaper sheets that have something in common. For example, only pastels or only saturated ones, etc. You can take different wallpapers with the same background color.

Usually two to four sheets are combined, thereby creating a small accent piece behind the sofa or bed.

But sometimes a series of different wallpapers are applied across the entire wall or only along its lower side. If you have managed to put together a luxurious wallpaper collection, why not go all out?

4. Wallpaper patchwork

Another option for collectors. If you have accumulated a fair amount of different wallpaper, you can turn a wall or a fragment of it into a “patchwork quilt”.

This design method is most suitable for vintage and “shabby” interiors (country, Provence, shabby chic). But if you wish and have a suitable wallpaper design, you can fit patchwork into a modern setting.

5. Wallpaper panels and imitation panels

This is a popular and very common option for wall decor. The method involves gluing wallpaper fragments to the wall and then framing them. To create frames, moldings or strips made of wood, polyurethane, plastic, and aluminum are used. Framed wallpaper can look like a decorative panel or like a classic panel.

Wallpaper panels and false panels are an inexpensive and easily implemented technique that allows you to bring into the interior classic features and quickly refresh the situation without a global remodel.

6. Wallpaper friezes

The interior frieze is a wide border located under the ceiling. Internal friezes are typical for classic, traditional interiors, but they are often found in modern design. With the help of a frieze you can visually lower an excessively high ceiling and visually expand the room.

Friezes can be applied (for example, plaster or wood) and imitated. They imitate friezes by applying paint or gluing wallpaper. Wallpaper friezes are especially interesting and expressive. They can become a real decoration and highlight of the interior.

7. Wallpaper sheets are not end to end, but at a distance

This technique allows you to be a little original and save a little on wallpaper - it costs significantly less than with classic continuous wallpapering of walls. The pitch between the wallpaper can be narrow or wide, up to the width of the wallpaper sheet.

Unfortunately, you won’t be able to save a lot, because you will have to spend money on paint for basic surface preparation - the gaps between the wallpaper must be ideal. However, instead of paint, you can use simple plain wallpaper that reproduces the texture of a painted wall.

8. Eye-catching wallpaper on the ceiling

Light-colored wallpapers are glued to the ceiling quite often, but colorful samples with patterns or ornaments are almost never found here. It looks unusual and impressive. The ceiling, covered with expressive wallpaper, persistently attracts attention and has a huge impact on the perception of the interior. Walls and floors with such a ceiling should be restrained and calm.

9. Wallpaper in niches

Wall and furniture niches “play” in a new way, being highlighted with color or pattern. They deepen, become isolated, and acquire “character.”

If there are several niches in the room, you can decorate them different wallpapers. This will not only enliven the situation, but also zone it.

Sometimes the niches of the shelving are covered with different wallpapers. Furniture a la patchwork (with niches, drawers and doors various colors) is very relevant today. Such items are accent pieces, so the rest of the furniture adjacent to the “patchwork” should be “quiet and modest.”

What wallpapering options are popular today?

Moreover, many wallpapers have special shades and patterns, due to which you can easily combine different kinds each other with a combined gluing option. Today, choosing wallpaper and the appropriate method of gluing is not difficult.

The most successful wallpapers for this gluing option are beige, gray and blue shades. To decorate a study in an apartment, wallpaper in strict colors is better suited.

To add originality to a room, a game of contrasts is often used, using wallpaper of different colors. By focusing on bright colors, they create zoning of the room.

• Nowadays, the technology of wallpapering a room horizontally is gaining popularity. To do this, the walls are divided parallel to the floor into two parts and covered with wallpaper. different colors and design.

Options for wallpapering two types

The choice of wallpaper is of great importance when decorating a room. Correctly selected wallpaper can transform almost any interior. You can correct an unsuccessful layout by gluing two types of wallpaper that differ in texture, color or pattern.

From a variety of wallpaper design options, you can choose the most suitable design, but you must take into account a whole list of conditions.

1. Ceiling height.

It is this characteristic that will determine what type of pattern you need to choose for the wallpaper, as well as what color and texture it will be. At standard height ceiling within 2.5 meters, it is recommended to choose wallpaper of a delicate texture, light shades, without large patterns. Combining basic light wallpaper with others that have a subtle texture or pattern will help visually increase the space with a very low ceiling. Another option is to hang wallpaper with painted vertical stripes or wallpaper sheets of different colors alternating in height. This method is better to decorate two or three walls in a room, but this design of only one wall is possible.

The approach to choosing wallpaper for a room with a high ceiling (from 3 meters and above) is fundamentally different. In this case, it is better to prefer wallpaper with a large pattern, stretched in width. There are options for wallpapering using horizontal wall division technology. The classic technique uses different colors in the upper and lower half. Modern style involves a more careful selection of colors and patterns in the design of wallpaper.

1. What are the dimensions of the room?

In addition to height, other room parameters should be taken into account. First of all, you should pay attention to the area of ​​the room. A large room allows you to use wallpaper in rich or dark shades. With their help, you can visually reduce the size and give the room a more comfortable look. Wallpaper can be used dark color with large light patterns - these can be plant motifs, abstractions or geometric patterns.

Secondly, you should take into account the geometric parameters of the room. If the room is very narrow, then gluing two types of wallpaper will help to visually adjust the length. The photo shows an ordinary room, the geometry of which was visually aligned by gluing lighter wallpaper on the short walls and part of the adjacent long walls.

If the entrance to narrow room located on the side long wall, maybe the central part opposite wall highlight with wallpaper of a different color. At the same time, to decorate the corners of the room, the same wallpaper is used as on the walls of the short side. This technique will help to significantly change the perception of the room: it will no longer seem elongated.

1. Choosing a texture.

Hanging two types of wallpaper in the bedroom or living room requires careful selection of the thickness and texture of the canvas. The choice of wallpaper panels of the same type is especially important if their joint is in the middle of the wall. Designers strongly recommend using mostly one type of wallpaper, otherwise the interior of the room will seem too exaggerated. Only if the joints of the canvases are at the corners of the room can an insignificant transition of wallpaper of different textures or thicknesses be allowed.

When gluing canvases that differ in texture, you should use the appropriate adhesive. Wallpaper on non-woven or paper based, With vinyl covering, acrylic or structured canvas require special adhesives designed only for specific materials. As a last resort, you can use universal glue, the composition of which is suitable for most types of wallpaper.

1. Dark or light room.

If the room is very bright or the interior looks a little monotonous, it is not at all necessary to paste dark wallpaper all the walls. It is enough to decorate with dark canvases only one wall, which is located opposite the window, and the other three can be decorated in light colors. In this way, you can get rid of the oppressive atmosphere, the effect of which is usually produced by dark walls, but the room will no longer look too light.

Also, if the room is very dark, it is possible to use this technique. You can stick wallpaper in light shades only on the wall opposite the window, and the room will immediately become much lighter.

Now let's look at how to combine two types of wallpaper.

In practice, several methods of gluing wallpaper of two types are most often used. To decorate one room, you can use a specific method in pure form, or you can combine several techniques at a time. The main thing is to clearly imagine a detailed picture of the desired interior.

1. Vertical combination.

It is well known that vertical stripes help to visually increase the height of the ceiling. However, stripes do not necessarily have to be present on all walls. Modern style involves many interpretations, for example, one wall can be covered with striped wallpaper, and the other three; simply paint it with plain paint or decorate it with wallpaper with a slightly noticeable pattern.

At classic version decoration, vertical stripes are distributed across all walls. They can be placed at certain intervals around the entire perimeter or at different intervals on different walls.

Stripes may differ in color or pattern. It is recommended to combine wallpaper with the same texture, otherwise the design of the room will look awkward and sloppy. For vertical version When wallpapering, canvases from the same collection are ideal. Manufacturers often produce a series of wallpapers whose designs combine well with each other. Typically, such a collection is presented in several colors, more often it is a couple of types of wallpaper with a plain background and the same number of options with an ornament or pattern.

1. Horizontal division.

One of the classic design techniques that helps get rid of the so-called well effect. It is often used when decorating small rooms with high ceilings, as well as corridors and hallways. Dividing rooms horizontally has been used for many years, but nowadays the abundance of textures and colors of materials gives it a special look and originality. Most often, the room is divided horizontally by a narrow strip along the entire perimeter, focusing on the height of the window sills. In the classical design, the wall plane is divided into three parts, and the encircling strip is placed on the border of the lower or upper parts.

Modern style allows exceptions to the rules, and often a horizontal stripe is designed at eye level, and various decorative accessories are placed along it. It looks beautiful and original. As a rule, the lower part of the room is decorated more dark tones than the top one, but you can experiment with colors.

1. Panels or decorative inserts.

For a long time, wallpaper of different colors was used to decorate one room, but previously they were made of fabric and decorated with special “frames”. Such materials had a high cost and were available exclusively to the upper classes. This is how it has been done since past years: wallpaper of two types was designed in the form of panels. Today, this option is used to create classic interiors; silk-screen printing, embossed or textured materials are used for insertion.

Some design styles (classic, Provence and country) allow you to decorate elements of a different color with a molding frame. This interior design looks quite stylish and original.

More modern styles(for example, Art Nouveau) also use similar panels in their design. But then the frame can be made from a border of the same color, presented in the same collection, or cut out yourself from the wallpaper itself.

As an option, you can decorate a niche in the form of a panel. To do this, the design and texture are carefully selected, according to the general style and the main interior.

So, some apartments may have uneven or even sloping walls. To ensure availability similar shortcomings the interior was not noticeable, the opposite side is highlighted with wallpaper of a different color or with a different pattern. The main thing is that they can attract attention to themselves.

Options for wallpapering in the kitchen will help you shift attention to dinner table, distracting eyes from the place of direct food preparation. In this case, the color accent is partly an element of zoning.

Most often, attention is focused using a vertically directed strip of wallpaper, but there are other options for highlighting individual places. So, in a room with high ceilings, a wide horizontal strip or just some part of the wall can serve as an accent.

Some rooms have a niche or projections load-bearing wall. It is not at all necessary to mask such areas, as is often attempted. On the contrary, by focusing on such architectural elements using wallpaper of a different color, you can make them a kind of “highlight” of the room. This technique will give the room style and personality.
