As the trend of home décor changes, many people are turning to wall stickers and wallpapers to add personality and flair to their homes. While both products serve a similar purpose, Many people find it difficult to decide which one to buy. This is because both products have their pros and cons

The Top 5 Differences Between Wall Stickers And Wallpapers

To make a decision, here are the top 5 differences that will turn the tide in one direction or the other:

Texture And Pattern

Wallpapers come in various colors, designs, and styles. You can find anything from damask to stripes to geometrics. 

Wall stickers are usually one solid color with a simple design. If you want something with more personality, go for wallpaper. The vibrant colors and patterns will make any room pop.

Durability

Who does not love a good makeover? But sometimes, you don’t have the time or money to invest in a new look every few months. If you want something that will last, barnwood wall is the way to go. 

It’s more expensive than wall stickers but will last for years. On the other hand, wall stickers are temporary and can be easily removed.

Installation

Both wallpapers and wall stickers are easy to install, but wallpaper takes a bit more time and effort. 

Before starting to hang the paper, you must prep the walls by applying primer and paste. On the other hand, wall stickers are as easy to peel and stick. No muss, no fuss.

Damage To Walls

When it’s time to redecorate, you want to be sure that your walls are in good condition. 

Wallpaper can be tricky to remove, and if it’s not done properly, it can damage your walls. Wall stickers are much easier to remove, and don’t risk damaging your walls.

Cleaning And Maintenance

Wallpapers are delicate and require special cleaning solutions and techniques. If done properly, you could avoid damaging the paper. Wall stickers are much easier to clean and maintain. You can wipe them down with a damp cloth.
