One feature wall/ a regular wall:
Measure your wall in centimetres.
Measure the width from left to right, along both the top [ceiling] and along the bottom [floor] (as most walls are not perfectly square).
Then measure the height from the ceiling to floor, on both the left and right hand sides (include architraves and skirting).
Provide us with the largest measurements obtained in the box priovided - width x height in cm.
Multiple walls/ adjoining walls:
If you are covering two or more adjoining walls, you need to order the total width of all walls in one go to ensure the pattern remains seamless around the walls. Do not order each wall one by one, otherwise the pattern won't match up around the room.
Measure your walls in centimetres.
Measure the width of each wall from left to right, along both the top [ceiling] and along the bottom [floor] (as most walls are not perfectly square). Then add each wall width together for your total width. For example:
Wall 1 + Wall 2 = Your Total Wall Width.
Wall 1 + Wall 2 + Wall 3 = Your Total Wall Width.
Wall 1 + Wall 2 + Wall 3 + Wall 4 = Your Total Wall Width.
Then measure the height of each wall. Measure the height of every wall you are intending to cover, therefore obtaining the tallest point, this will be your final height.
Provide us with the largest measurements in the box priovided - width x height in cm.
We highly recommend ordering extra height when wallpapering more than one wall to allow for wall warping.
Pitched celings:
Measure the width as usual, see above.
If you have a pitched or slanted roof, simply measure the tallest point in your room as your final height, all excess will be trimmed away during installation. You can use the left-over wallpaper for something fun (e.g. at the back of a wardrobe or shelving).
Walls with doors, windows or obtsacles
If there is a door or window or obstacle e.g. a bulkhead, heater/ air conditioning unit or electrical outlet in the wall you wish to wallpaper, simply pretend that it is not there and measure the whole wall, including the door or window or obstacle. This ensures the pattern remains seamless around the door or window or obstacle. On installation, you can trim around it using relief cuts. You can use the left-over wallpaper for something fun (e.g. at the back of a wardrobe or shelving).
Relief cuts: four relief cuts will be required around rectangular obstacles e.g. electrical outlets. See our installation video for more information:

Important notes:
Our standard width and luxe width wallpapers are custom made/ made to order.
Your wallpaper will be delivered in drops or panels. We will endeavour to provide you with equal drops.
We routinely provide a 1cm overlap on each panel as well as a 5cm overhang on the base and end panel to allow for any inaccuracies in wall shape, and human error in measuring, and to ensure a perfect seamless finish. The excess can be trimmed post application with a sharp Stanley knife.
It is important that you accurately measure your wall, as your wallpaper is made to the measurements that YOU provide us (plus small bleeds to allow for wall warping).
We are unable to change your wallpaper once it has been made, so please CHECK and DOUBLE CHECK before ordering.
If you have measured incorrectly, and you require extra wallpaper, please contact us to discuss: hello@minnieandmeinteriors.com
Please note that you will be charged if you require extra wallpaper panels, but be mindful that we can not guarantee exact colour matches on different print runs. We cannot print extension panels for some designs e.g. murals.
We suggest when entering your measurements at check out, always allow a little extra, it is better to have excess, which you can trim later.
If you do not feel confident installing the wallpaper, please utilise the services of a professional wallpaper installer. We offer a wallpaper installation service in Melbourne and surrounds; book at check out or send us an email to enquire.
