Traditional wallpaper is generally found in rolls that are 53 cm wide and about 10 meters long. The latest standard size length of wallpaper is 9.5 meters. Wallpaper Borders are available in much different smaller sizes.

Hanging wallpaper borders is one great way to bring instant color and style to any room. And can highlight the hues and décor of your bathroom, bedroom, den, kitchen, or living room. Borders are not expensive, you can fit them by yourself, and are easy to clean while hanging. Furthermore, installation takes a fraction of the time taken to wallpaper an entire room.

And you can place them on the walls at different heights or on the ceiling. Hanging borders on the ceiling is no different from hanging them on the wall. Why would we hang them on the ceiling? It is to give your ceiling depth. The only ceilings we recommend you hang wallpaper borders on are bathroom ceilings or small hallways. Wallpaper borders hanging on the ceiling give it a little more optical illusion height.

The wider the wallpaper border the better it will look for higher ceilings. But if you use a wide border in a room with seven feet or lower ceilings, the border will end up looking clumsy and bulky.
