Wallpaper Ceiling Tiles

Wrap ceiling tiles in different patterns for wallpaper for a quick fix.


Make a ceiling pop with pattern and design by adding wallpaper to ceiling tiles. Wallpaper is available in a variety of patterns from florals, stripes and contemporary geometrical finishes. Embossed wallpaper may even give the impression of faux ceiling tin, once painted with metallic paint. Still, the wallpaper must be installed correctly to avoid peeling and curling paper.


Instructions


1. Brush all loose debris from the ceiling tile. Use a soft bristle brush or rough sponge.


2. Roll on a coat of sealer and stain blocking primer to the surface of the ceiling tin. Use a mini roller and quickly cover the surface of each tile. Allow several hours for the tile to dry.








3. Cut wallpaper into squares the size of the tile. Use a pencil to trace the shape around the wallpaper. Use a sharp razor blade and a yardstick to make quick cuts in the wallpaper.


4. Roll glue on the back of each wallpaper section. Place the section directly onto the tile. Smooth out any bubbles and lay flat to dry.


5. Wrap the edge of each wallpaper tile with masking tape. Only allow a small amount to show on the front of the tile. The grid in the ceiling will hid any small amount exposed on the front of the tile.


6. Replace the freshly wrapped ceiling tile and put back in ceiling. Keep extra wallpaper handy for emergency repairs or damages to existing tiles.
