The Art of Natural Wallcovering Installation
Grasscloth and natural fiber wallpapers bring organic warmth and sophisticated texture to any space. However, these beautiful materials require specialized installation techniques that differ significantly from traditional wallpaper.
At Geraldino Wallpaper Studio, we've mastered the unique challenges of working with natural materials— from managing color variations to achieving seamless installations with delicate fibers. Serving Short Hills, Ridgewood, Montclair, Summit, and all NJ metro communities, we bring years of expertise to every grasscloth project.

Why Grasscloth Requires Expert Installation
Natural Color Variation
Each panel has unique color and texture variations that must be carefully arranged for a harmonious look. We strategically place panels to enhance natural beauty while maintaining visual balance.
Delicate Material Handling
Natural fibers can be damaged by standard adhesives and techniques. We use specialized paste and gentle handling methods to protect the material's integrity.
Seam Management
Unlike printed wallpaper, grasscloth seams should be slightly visible as part of the natural aesthetic. We create consistent, professional seams that complement the organic texture.
Moisture Sensitivity
Natural materials require careful adhesive application and drying time management to prevent warping, staining, or fiber damage.
Our Grasscloth Installation Process
Material Review
We inspect all panels upon delivery, checking for defects and planning panel placement based on natural variations.
Wall Preparation
Surfaces must be perfectly smooth and properly primed with the correct primer for natural materials.
Strategic Installation
Using non-staining adhesive and specialized techniques, we install each panel with careful attention to seam quality and fiber direction.
Careful Finishing
Edges are trimmed with razor-sharp blades, and all work areas are cleaned without disturbing the natural fibers.
