NuWallpaper x Society Social Classic Faux Grasscloth Peel and Stick Wallpaper, Mineral Blue

I think I purchased every faux grasscloth on Amazon for my living room. I ended up going with this product in Whisper Blue as the other colors didn’t match. The other colors are lovely, but slightly darker than how they showed on my screen and the texture and weight make it hard to tell it’s not real grasscloth. I hope they will keep making more colors! Hanging it was not difficult, the pattern is forgiving and doesn’t have to be lined up exactly, though it does have a repeat like regular wallpaper (unlike real grasscloth ) so you can line it up if you want to; it doesn’t stick to itself like cheaper brands. BUT it’s REALLY important to wash your walls and your hands before hanging. I washed my walls, applied it, it started falling, I pulled it down, washed the walls a second time and trimmed the ends where I’d touched it, then re-hung it and it’s stayed up beautifully since.

EDIT #2: Alright guys, I’ve officially had it with this wallpaper so demoting my review to 1-star. Takes *a lot* for me to leave a 1-star review. Initially, I posted 5 stars after using this in our last house in green years ago, then downgraded to 2 stars recently after using it in our bar at our new house. I wound up using wallpaper adhesive to reapply the fallen areas and corners. Weeks later, it’s falling down all over again. Got back up on a ladder and reapplied. To my shock, I came home days later to fallen wallpaper. It felt like a sick joke. Had my husband reapply paste, and same thing. Since I clearly didn’t utilize the adage of “insanity is doing the same thing over again and expecting different results” I stupidly then decided to pay our handyman $200 to apply an *additional* coat of wallpaper paste, to no avail days later…still coming down from the walls in all corners and bubbling off the walls in the center. What in the actual %#*€?!…omg it’s like this stuff has a death wish to go into the trash, which is exactly where it’ll be going. This is the most ruthless, savage wallpaper I’ve ever battled with. I absolutely love everything about this wallpaper too, the color, the texture, how it matches with all my colors, but the love is unrequited. RIP wallpaper; we had quite the duel but you won the battle this time, and I’m determined to find your replacement! EDIT #1: I’m updating a review I left years ago after using the green version of this wallpaper, which was great at the time and stayed put on our textured walls at our old home. We recently moved and fortunately, now have smooth walls throughout so thought the light denim blue color would work great as an accent wall behind a pass through bar to compliment navy cabinets. I put up a portion of this stuff last night. Still as easy to work with in terms of repositioning and matching up the pattern. It has a beautiful appearance with light texturing and is a solid faux Grasscloth option. It appeared smooth on seemed to adhere well after applying last night with. On feel using my fingers to test, it seemed to have decent adhesive, but not the case on my walls. I came home from work to find a crinkled mess of paper that fell down from the walls today. In addition, the portion that remains on the wall has developed large bubbles which were not there when I applied yesterday, likely from the adhesive failing in those areas too. I used a smoothing tool and pressure with it to and it looked perfect yesterday night. While this is easily solved by spraying adhesive before application it defeats the purpose of removable peel and stick option and will make it much harder to remove down the line. I deliberately chose peel and stick as I planned to likely change this in the near future to a cool metallic tile backsplash once I find the design I want, but obviously needing to spray adhesive on the entire wall will make it likely for the walls to sustain damage when removing, which I wanted to avoid to begin with - I would’ve purchased genuine unpasted grasscloth had I of known I’d need adhesive spray to get this to stay put . Also, because it’s a crinkled mess and there’s bubbles I will have to scrap the entire portion I already did, which required a lot of time for precise cuts around the window. Very frustrating. Again, I applied this to smooth and clean walls. Makes me question if this works better with textured walls because it may create more of a “grip” to avoid it slipping off the smooth walls. I remember in the old house, it stayed in place for years (I used the light green, dark green, wheat, as well as this same color in various rooms and it stayed put throughout each room for the nearly 3 years we lived there) - you could subtly see the textured walls in certain lighting at the old house but you likely wouldn’t have known unless I pointed it out. It worked great years ago but today, not so much on our smooth walls. Thus, it may also be a quality issue. I would look elsewhere for peel and stick grasscloth options to avoid your hard work and time being wasted if you experience a similar issue. I left the pictures up from my initial review of the green color in our old home so you can see how it looks over textured walls, but do not quote me that the quality is the same currently, given the issues I experienced at our new home with smooth walls. Uploaded a photo of the blue version I just applied last night to demonstrate the unexpected crinkled mess I came home to today. Buy at your own risk.

I have received so many compliments on this wallpaper! It goes up smoothly, is repositioned easily, and it looks high-end.

Regular contact paper is thin, sticky and hard to use. I bought this to line the inside of my shelves and create an accent on my laundry room doors. This product is easy to use for the O.C.D girl like me. I love this color it is very versatile. After years of purchasing contact paper this is the clear winner. Good Luck. I will post a picture when done. Thanks for looking.

Faux grasscloth wallpaper in French blue – looks great and feels realistic! Application was fairly easy, but the seams separated more than I expected. I did overlap the edges, so I’ll need to buy another roll and redo it. Overall, a beautiful look but a bit tricky to get perfect.

Only giving four stars because it looks amazing but it smells like armpits like rotten onions. I’m guessing the adhesive? Hoping that will go away in time for now the door is staying open and keeping the room ventilated. Installing was pretty easy but matching the seams was hard. I applied from left to right as it was easier for me and less cuts. I did two rows and over lapped a little to help the seam blend better. My walls are textured, so it bubbled some, but I used a flat plastic cake smoother that I had on hand, and once I added the wooden border on top, there was no issue. Definitely have a second hand for helping when applying if possible. I took off the backing a hands length at a time and smoothed it down in the direction I was applying. Made it go on with no hassle.

I put this wallpaper on a bookcase and it looks fantastic. The color is perfect and it looks very much like real grass cloth. It was easy to put up, but I did have some problems with adhesion. The morning after installing it some very large bubbles appeared. I pulled that section up and sprayed some spray adhesive. It solved the problem.

This receives 2 stars because it's really beautiful and thick with a nice texture and look. I really love the color and couldn't find any other wallpaper in this color. It's not very sticky, which makes it very easy to install and even reposition if necessary. The problem with that is it literally doesn't stay up. You might as well use wallpaper glue with it from the get to, because you're gonna be going back and flying it in once it starts to peel. I used it in our camper and it was peeling off literally days after I'd installed it. I used mod lodge to get it to last the season, but after the winter I went into the camper to find all of my wallpaper falling off the walls. I tried to reorder it so I can glue it on, but it's been a month and it still hasn't even shipped yet. That's pretty terrible. I'm thinking even though I love the look of this I'm gonna have to find something else.

Easy to install and looks great. Keep in mind that real grass cloth also shows the seams so if that bothers you, maybe select something different. This is faux grasscloth but passes very well. Really gave the room a high end polish.

Color is great and quality is awesome. It does have somewhat of a faint pattern to it which made it hard to line up and wasn’t expected

This peel and stick grasscloth is excellent quality . Went on easy peasy and I experienced no peeling or tearing after installing. You don’t need to line anything up so for a peel and stick it makes installing it that much easier. Because it’s a grasscloth pattern the look and texture is subtle and the lines look intentional. I just love the colour and texture! So forgiving 👌🏽 . I would defiantly buy this product again.

The product does not stay on the wall. It fell just a few days later. I’ve requested refund. Terrible

The colour and texture looked beautiful when first installed, but the wallpaper started peeling off the wall within a short time, even after smoothing it properly and applying it to a clean, flat surface. It would not stay adhered, especially along the top and corners. I’ve used peel-and-stick wallpaper before without any issues, so this was unexpected. Unfortunately, I had to remove it because it just wouldn’t stay on the wall.
