How to Create Wallpaper from Your Image

Did you know that you can create your very own wallpaper with a high-res image and a little creativity? You can choose any motif you like. Simply upload an image (JPG, TIF, EPS or PDF) in the highest quality and resolution possible. If you're unsure whether the image is of high enough resolution, please contact us before ordering and we'll help you to review the image. We'll get back to you within three business days. If you want to order straight away, enter your measurements, crop the image, and choose a material – all in the same manner as when ordering a motif from our range of wallpaper.

What size should my image be?

Bear in mind it’s only possible to print your photo or illustration as a wall mural if the image is at least one pixel per half inch of wallpaper. This means that the image must be at least 4000 x 2500 pixels if you want to order a wall mural that is 157.5 x 98.5 inches. When uploading your image remember that it should be an image file, not a text file, to maintain the image quality.

What images can I use to create my own wall mural?

Family photos, pictures of nature, illustrations and vacation photos—you can upload whatever pictures you like and create your own unique motif. If you can’t find your own image to print as wallpaper, look for one from stock photo agency Dreamstime. We’re happy to help. Simply email Customer Service with the image ID number.

How can I be creative with my walls?

We see a wall as a blank canvas and an opportunity to create the right mood for the whole room with a unique wallpaper. But sometimes even our wide range of colorful, simple and graphic wallpaper motifs may not be exactly what you were looking for. Maybe you want your wall to be black as night? Or show off a pattern you drew yourself? Or perhaps a collage to remind you of your grandchildren every day? A wall with your favorite proverb is sure to inspire or, perhaps wallpaper with a lush jungle scene you captured on vacation. Are you having trouble picking only one color and would like a two-tone color combination instead? Or maybe a horizontal pattern instead of a vertical one? With Photowall, the possibilities are endless. Your tailor-made wallpaper will give your walls a new look and mood that tells your own personal story.

Which wallpaper quality should I choose?

Whether you upload your own image or choose a motif from our vast range, you are free to choose the wallpaper quality that suits you best. Our wallpaper is printed on nonwoven material, in standard or premium quality. The material is durable and environmentally friendly. The difference is that an extra layer has been applied to the premium material, giving the wallpaper an extra-matte finish and anti-reflective properties, and making it wipeable with cleaning products—perfect for parents with small children, photos and in public spaces.
