Yes. Mayflower Wallpaper is designed in our Rhode Island studio and printed at a family-run mill on the East Coast that we've partnered with since 2013. We're a husband-and-wife team (Stephanie and Jonathan), and we work directly with our mill partner to ensure quality at every stage. American manufacturing means stricter environmental standards, shorter shipping distances, and the ability to stand behind every roll we sell.

Yes, when you choose the right product. Look for peel and stick wallpaper that's PVC-free, VOC-free, phthalate-free, and printed with water-based inks. Our peel and stick collection meets all of these standards. Unlike paint, which can off-gas for weeks, quality peel and stick wallpaper won't release harmful fumes into your baby's room.

Quality peel and stick wallpaper typically lasts 5+ years when applied to a clean, smooth, properly cured surface. Some installations last much longer in ideal conditions—climate-controlled rooms, low humidity, smooth walls. It's designed for flexibility rather than permanence, which makes it perfect for rentals, nurseries that will evolve as children grow, or anyone who likes to change their decor. If you want a 15+ year installation, choose our traditional format instead.

Peel and stick wallpaper has adhesive already applied—you peel off the backing and press it onto the wall. It's DIY-friendly, renter-safe, and removes cleanly. Traditional wallpaper requires separate paste and professional installation is recommended, but it lasts 15+ years and handles humidity better. We offer some of our patterns in both formats so you can choose based on your situation, not our inventory. Same designs, same quality, different installation methods.

When properly applied and removed, quality peel and stick wallpaper does not damage walls. The key is surface prep (clean, smooth, fully cured paint) and removal technique (slow, steady pulling at a 45-degree angle). We stand behind our product, but we always recommend testing in an inconspicuous area if you're concerned about your specific wall finish.

We recommend trying a sample on the intended wall. Leaving it to stick for a week or more. This is the best way to know if your space has too much humidity, dust on the walls, texture or paint with non-stick like Teflon.

Peel and stick will not stick to non-stick paint. Non-stick painted walls will force the wallpaper to slide down and off the walls.

Peel and stick wallpaper can be applied in a ventilated room, on a clean, dust-free, and flat surface. Peelable wallpaper sticks best to dry interiors.

Peel and stick cannot be applied in muggy bathrooms, textured popcorn walls, non-stick painted walls, sheetrock, brick, cinderblock, over existing wallpaper, unpainted dry wall, or plaster.

Allow newly painted surfaces to cure (off-gass) for a period recommended by the manufacturer.

Humidity causes the adhesion to peel away from the wall.

Textured walls create air pockets.

The peel and stick will adhere for at least ten years.

Measure the height and width of the area you want to wallpaper.
Be sure to measure the full height and each section’s width.

Account for pattern matching and waste.
If you're calculating by square footage, add about 30% extra to allow for pattern repeats.
Note: Plain vinyls do not require matching, so waste is typically less, though still present.

Roll coverage examples:

A 27" wide wallpaper roll typically covers 54" of wall width on a standard 8–9 ft tall wall.

A 20.5" wide wallpaper roll typically covers 61.5" of wall width on a standard 8–9 ft tall wall.

Yes. Samples start at $5 with complimentary shipping. We strongly recommend ordering samples before purchasing full rolls—colors and scale can look different on screen than in your actual lighting. Samples ship within 1-2 business days.

The wallpaper sample sizes are dependent on the design and will be one of the following measurements:

• 8x10 inches
• 20.5 inches wide by 12 inches long
• 27 inches wide by 9 inches long

We are happy to offer wallpaper samples to help you make the perfect choice for your space. Please note, at this time:

• Only one sample per design per order.
• Samples are offered to help you assess colors and textures under your specific lighting and environment.

Try it in your space, live with it. Wallpaper can be a commitment, we understand if you want to date a bit first.

• Half Drop Match- half-drop patterns repeat at the ceiling line on every other strip and the design runs diagonally. It requires three strips of wallpaper to repeat the vertical design. A half-drop match is a straight match that has been split in half. 
• Random Match- a type of wallpaper with no matching seams, also known as a free match. It can be cut and installed in any order. 
• Straight Match- the pattern matches across the width of the wallpaper. Our packing list label and product description will tell you how often the pattern repeats.

FJ patterns (like FJ30901) are our traditional paste-required wallpaper. MFW patterns (like MFW30901) are peel and stick. Same design, different format. If you see the same numbers after the prefix, it's the same pattern in both formats.

Our traditional wallpapers (paper, non-woven murals) are unpasted.

We prefer unpasted wallpaper over pre-pasted because it offers more control during installation and ensures a longer-lasting, higher-quality finish. 

1. Better Adhesion & Durability – Unpasted wallpaper requires a separate adhesive, allowing you to choose the right paste for your wall surface. This results in a stronger bond and prevents peeling over time.
2. More Flexibility in Application – Unlike pre-pasted wallpaper, which activates with water and can dry too quickly, unpasted wallpaper gives you more time to position and adjust before it sets, reducing wrinkles and misalignment.
3. Easier Removal & Repositioning – With the right paste, unpasted wallpaper is often easier to remove without damaging the walls, making future updates or changes hassle-free.
4. Higher-Quality Designs & Materials – Many premium wallpapers are unpasted because this method works best with heavyweight, textured, or specialty materials like grasscloth and non-woven fabrics.

At Mayflower Wallpaper, our double rolls are priced and packaged as a single unit—no confusing math required!

The term "double roll" comes from an old industry practice when companies used to cut rolls in half to sell single rolls. That’s not the case anymore, but the name stuck around, even though it doesn’t quite match today’s roll sizes.

Originally, U.S. rolls were 27 inches wide by 9 yards long, so a double roll meant two of those pieces. European rolls, on the other hand, are 20.5 inches wide by 11 yards long, yielding three pieces per roll. Over time, U.S. manufacturers adopted the European size but kept calling it a "double roll," even though the math isn’t so straightforward anymore.

Bottom line: The term "double roll" might be outdated, but rest assured—our rolls are sold as full, standard units with no surprises!

• For high traffic areas, like the kitchen or bathroom, we love faux grasscloths and sisal cork wallpaper. They are stain resistant, and can easily be wiped down.
• For high profile areas like the dining room, we lean toward non-woven designs, with their nylon fibers they are super durable, and display rich colors and incredible textures.
• Peel and stick is the new adulting. Ceiling, stair risers, mud room, nursery, pantry, gloomy corners.
• Unpasted paper wallpaper gravure printed can be applied just about anywhere. Traditional wallpaper lasts so long, it's not out of the ordinary to find wallpaper underneath wallpaper underneath wallpaper.

Yes—with a little care. Our wallpapers work well in bathrooms and kitchens as long as they’re not in direct contact with water and the room is properly ventilated.

Yes, we always suggest priming your walls first—especially if they’re freshly painted or patched. It helps the wallpaper stick properly and makes removal easier down the line.

We don’t recommend it. For the best results, start with a clean, smooth, and primed surface. Wallpapering over texture or old wallpaper can lead to uneven results and poor adhesion.

Most of our wallpapers can be gently wiped with a damp cloth. Avoid scrubbing or using harsh chemicals. If you’re unsure, test a small hidden area first.
