Prepasted Removable Smooth

This paper is a DIY favorite for its smooth finish and subtle sheen, and many professional installers appreciate that it works well on a broad range of surfaces.

It is ideal for both temporary or longer-term projects, but removal is quick, and it is fully recyclable! A smart choice for light to moderate traffic areas.

Non-Pasted Traditional Pebble Wallpaper

This commercial grade paper has a pebbled texture and works great for long term installations in high traffic spaces. It is both scrub and scratch resistant, and its sueded, matte finish makes it a wise choice for any wall. Professional installation strongly encouraged!

Non-Pasted Traditional Pebble is well suited for:

  • playrooms
  • bathrooms
  • office spaces
  • restaurants
  • commercial buildings
  • residential properties

 

Grasscloth Wallpaper

Unlike our other three papers, this natural paper offers a unique and visually stunning finish for your special projects. Due to the delicate nature of this product, it is not recommended for high-traffic spaces and it must be installed by a professional.

Grasscloth wallpaper is ideal for:

  • accent walls
  • lower traffic rooms
  • above chair rails, out of reach of curious hands, dirty fingers, and pets.
