If you came here to say, “Um, absolutely not—wallpaper should not be painted over,” I hear you.
Should you really paint over wallpaper? Probably not. But here’s the thing—we all do projects in our homes that we probably shouldn’t. Sometimes it’s a temporary fix before a larger renovation, sometimes we just use what we have on hand, and sometimes it’s because we just don’t have the skills yet to do things by the book. Not to mention that wallpaper is notoriously difficult to remove correctly, and the chances that the wall will be damaged underneath are pretty high. Painting over wallpaper will never look as good as painting a fresh wall, but you knew that, right?
