• Can fabric be applied on a textured wall?

• What would be the best fabric content for walls: cotton, polyester, rayon...?
  Any suggestions?

• This is a great video! I love it and who doesn't love HGTV? I am a wall upholstery expert and I still forget that you can use fabrics like wall paper. one thing I would recommend is to test a small piece of the fabric to see how it reacts with the glue. I also have a DIY wall upholstery video called wall upholstery 101, getting started in wall upholstery. There is also an advanced video.

• And THAT is what he chose to put UP? When I was a kid and our family projects for our 'off' hours were renovating old houses in the Hollywood Hills, that sort of look was what we kids were taking DOWN. But this is really interesting. When we would do fabric walls, Mom always had us shirring fabric (1920s bungalows), or doing the Rothschildian thing (in palazzi), with padding, opulent fabrics, and gilt wood trim at the edges. This seems so much easier. The Host, BTW, has great eyebrows.

• I think being an ignoramus is only the beginning of Crap Comment Guy's problems. Being a gender-obsessed, repressed, self-hating closet case probably brings him more angst than his being an ignoramus.

• Awesome!!!!

• Very nice. Appreciate the great video Christine Renner on HGTV House Hunters - Clip 1 :)

  If you get time visit me at blindsmax and check out my home design videos.

• Great tips I love this and HGTV

• I use 100% cotton fabric and liquid fabric starch. Fabric will stay up as long as you wish; when done with it, pull it off from the bottom, watch and use it for some other project later on!

• Love this thanks so much
