Wall appliques/stickers will not stay on wall?

Posted by admin on February 23rd, 2010 and filed under wall paper borders | 2 Comments »

I just bought some wall appliques/stickers and peel-and-stick wall paper border but it will NOT stay up. Any suggestions on what I can do to make them stick. I cannot take them back. UGH!
Walls are clean and dry. Would wallpaper paste work?

Make sure your walls are clean and smooth. Give them a good wash – and dry – and then try applying the appliques again.

    I’ve had a lot of success with wall stickers, but I’ve found the following:

    (1) they tend to come off if they’re close to the register (heating vent) — they don’t like air blown on them
    (2) those borders have a tendency to come down — I had to use strategically-placed thumb tacks for those.
