A new interior without the hassle of glue, brushes, and drop cloths? More and more people in the Netherlands, both renters and homeowners, are discovering the benefits of peel and stick wallpaper. It's a fast and affordable way to give a room a completely new look. Whether you want to create a striking accent wall, give an old piece of furniture a new lease on life, or simply bring a breath of fresh air into your home, this type of wallpaper offers a practical solution.
As a Joybuy Product Recommendation Officer, I'm here to help you get started. In this article, I'll provide practical tips for choosing the right product and share some popular choices for 2026, based on product specifications and design.
Before you make a choice, there are a few things to keep in mind. Proper preparation ensures a more professional end result.
Peel and stick wallpaper adheres best to a smooth, clean, and dry surface. Think of painted walls (let the paint cure completely), lacquered furniture panels, or the inside of a cabinet. Surfaces with a heavy texture, such as popcorn ceilings or plaster, or untreated wood are less suitable. The adhesive layer needs an even surface to bond properly. Therefore, good preparation of the wall or furniture is essential.
The choice of patterns is vast, from subtle textures to bold prints. For an accent wall wallpaper, a striking botanical wallpaper is a popular choice. It brings the outdoors in and instantly creates atmosphere. If you want to use wallpaper for furniture, for example, on the drawers of a dresser or the back panel of an open cabinet, a smaller, repeating pattern can provide a calmer and more refined effect. Think carefully about the scale of the pattern in relation to the surface you want to cover.
A classic mistake in any DIY wallpaper project is ordering too little. Measure the length and width of the surface accurately and order a little more than you need to account for any cutting errors. An important tip: order all the rolls you need for one project at the same time. Rolls from different production batches can have slight colour variations. This is often mentioned on the packaging and can be the difference between a seamless finish and a visible seam.

1. Is peel and stick wallpaper easy to remove? Yes, most types of peel and stick wallpaper are designed as removable wallpaper. It can typically be removed without residue or damage to the underlying paint, provided the surface was in good condition. It's ideal for renters or for those who like to change their decor frequently.
2. Can I use peel and stick wallpaper on furniture? Absolutely. Using peel and stick wallpaper for furniture is a popular DIY trend. It works excellently on smooth surfaces like wardrobe doors, dresser drawer fronts, tabletops, or the back panel of an open cabinet. Make sure the surface is thoroughly degreased and clean for the best adhesion.
3. How do I prevent air bubbles during application? The key is patience. Apply the wallpaper from top to bottom, peeling off only a small section of the backing at a time. Use a soft cloth or a plastic squeegee to smooth the wallpaper as you apply it. Work from the centre outwards to push out any air bubbles. If a bubble remains, you can prick it with a very fine needle and smooth the air out.
