The interior decoration of the house with wood involves the use of natural wooden wallpaper on the walls.

For reference. The thickness of this material varies from 0.01 to 0.06 cm. Wallpaper can be made from a variety of tree species, one of their advantages is the ability to insert curved surfaces and create “seamless” walls.

Features of wooden wallpaper:

• When pasting with wooden wallpaper at the finish, an unusual result is obtained, the appearance does not look like the usual familiar interior, as after ordinary wallpaper.
• After all, wooden wallpaper is unique. Each next roll has several differences from the previous one.
  The price of these materials is from 1 to 15 thousand rubles.
• In order to finish the inside of the house with wood as efficiently as possible, it is necessary to use special glue for this.
• The pasting process is almost completely similar to the same process, but with respect to paper or vinyl wallpaper. Therefore, you can cope with this stage without any problems, and no video instructions are needed here, although you can get acquainted.

Tip.
But immediately after the wallpaper is in place (on the walls), you need to grease them with wax, oil or varnish as soon as possible. Thanks to this, the surface of the wallpaper made of wood becomes darker and richer in sunlight.

Since each new segment of wallpaper will be unique, and the pattern, accordingly, will not be repeated, then even trying to fit the sheets so that they fit better together as fashionably as possible does not make sense. On the contrary, this nuance will allow you to really feel in the wild, where it is impossible to meet a single repeating element.
