Measure the width and the height of the complete wall.

If you are going to wallpaper a wall that has different heights, for example, a staircase or a sloping ceiling, always measure the highest and widest point to cover the whole wall.  We always order your wallpaper in the exact measurements you specify, however, we highly recommend you add 5 to 10cm to the measurements.

If you're wallpapering corners, we always recommend that you add 5cm per corner and 5cm on the height.  For example, if you're going to wallpaper all four walls in a room, add 5cm per wall.  This means you should add 5cm to the height and a total of 20cm to the width.
