What materials are the wallpapers made of?
Vlies wallpaper is a non-woven material made from plant fibers and cotton threads. This type ensures durability and smooth walls without visible wrinkling.
By choosing vlies wallpaper, you’re opting for a very durable wallpaper that adheres well and is easy to install.
Vlies wallpaper’s special feature is that it can be removed dry from the wall without damaging the surface. It’s easy to work with.
The vlies wallpaper is applied dry to the glue-coated wall (only the wall needs to be coated).
The wallpaper is always aligned edge-to-edge (seamless join). Vlies wallpaper retains its shape, does not stretch or shrink.

How do I measure my wall?
- Measuring tapes available in stores are usually 5 meters long. If your selected wall is no wider than that, you can confidently use it for measuring. It's very important to hold the tape flush against the wall, making sure it’s not tilted or slipping. For height, you’ll likely need a ladder. Measure height the same way as width. Tape measuring requires 2 people. It’s advisable to take a confirmation measurement and always submit your order in this format: width x height.
- Measure the net size, do not add allowances, and do not round! It is not recommended to measure a wall section longer than 5 meters by “extending” a 5-meter tape, as this leads to inaccuracies. Use a laser meter in that case.
- If you have a laser meter, you can take measurements faster and more easily. You can even do it alone. To measure ceiling height, place the laser on the floor and ensure the beam hits the ceiling directly. Press the measure button to get the height. For width, place the laser on one wall and have a helper hold a white sheet on the opposite wall. This helps the beam register the width.
- Measure from ceiling to flooring. If there's a baseboard or parquet trim, include that in the height and send the trim size as a note.
How do I apply the wallpaper?
- For the best result, always hire a professional to install the wallpaper.
- Before wallpapering, properly prepare the walls: fill, sand, remove dust, and eliminate any unevenness or slant.
- Priming is required before wallpapering.
- After priming, use wallpaper adhesive recommended for vlies or non-woven wallpapers.
- Before applying the wallpaper, it’s advisable to lay out the segments to determine the image’s position so that the desired graphic element is properly placed on the wall.
- You only need to apply glue to the wall.
- Most important: start wallpapering with clean, soap-washed hands!
- Apply glue to the wall area equal in size to the wallpaper segment, place the strip (segment), and continue in the same way with the remaining segments.
- If any glue gets on the wallpaper, gently wipe it off with a clean, damp cloth—do not scrub!
Is there waterproof wallpaper as well?
Yes, moisture- and waterproof wallpaper is available, which is suitable for wallpapering wet rooms. When selecting the right material, prior consultation is important to determine exactly which room the wallpaper will be placed in, and specifically where within the room. It matters whether the wallpaper will be directly exposed to water or only to condensation.
Therefore, if you need this type of wallpaper, please contact me at akvawallpapers@gmail.com.
How can I clean my wallpaper?
Thanks to the vinyl coating, the wallpapers can be cleaned. You can wipe them with a damp sponge, but do not scrub vigorously or soak them.
What are the sizes of the rolls?
The width of the selected wallpaper is determined by the wall size. It can be any size between 60 and 130 cm.
How much do the wallpapers cost?
- The prices shown on the website are per square meter. These are indicative prices, which become final after size confirmation.
- Based on the exact wall dimensions, it will be determined how many square meters of material are needed and how many segments it will be produced in. Based on this, a quotation will be sent within a few days.
What material are the wall stickers made of?
Self-adhesive vinyl wall sticker with a matte surface, which comes on a silicone paper layer to the customer. This layer must be removed from the patterned surface during application.
How do I apply the wall stickers?
You can find an instructional video at this link!
Each wall sticker comes with a backing layer that can be easily removed from the patterned surface during application.
To help, measure and lightly mark on the wall where the sticker should go. For arched shapes, it is recommended to use a level and draw a vertical line on the wall to ensure the pattern is straight.
I suggest not doing the work alone, especially with larger wall stickers.
- It is very important to thoroughly clean the wall surface of dust, grease, and other dirt where the sticker will be applied.
- Do not remove the entire backing layer from the patterned surface at once.
- Start from the top, peel off a small section of the backing layer, and stick that part of the pattern to the wall. You can still adjust it to ensure it is straight.
- If you are satisfied with the placement, continue peeling off the backing layer piece by piece while smoothing the sticker onto the wall to avoid bubbles. Use a tool like a bank card or plastic spatula that won’t scratch the pattern.
- Continue this process until the backing layer is fully removed.
- Do not remove and reapply the sticker after application.
How can I pay?
- After agreeing on the design, size, and material, I will send a quote via email. Accepting this is considered an order.
- Based on the quote, a proforma invoice will be issued for the total amount, which must be paid within 3 days.
- After the amount is received on the bank account, I will send the electronic invoice for the advance payment. Production begins once the full advance is received, and the order cannot be canceled after this point.
- The final invoice will be sent along with the delivery of the product.
How long does it take for my order to arrive?
- Since every wallpaper is custom-made, it may take up to 3 weeks from ordering to receiving it. This also depends on the manufacturer’s current capacity.
- I will keep the customer informed about the order status and stages.
- If you order a custom design, please consider the time needed for design and consultations, which can take several weeks—so the entire process may take up to a month.
Until when can I cancel my order, and can I return it?
- You can of course change your mind during the consultation, but once the proforma invoice is sent, the purchase can no longer be canceled.
- Custom products are considered final sales, so they cannot be returned or exchanged.
Shipping
- All packages are delivered by courier to the previously agreed address. Shipping costs are in addition to the purchase price, but the invoice will include this amount.
- If you want to order from abroad, please indicate this when placing the order!
