 Do the walls need to be lined before hanging the wallpaper?

reply: The wallpaper itself does not require a liner, but if the wall has light texture a liner can smooth it out so that the texture doesn't show through the wallpaper. The wall does not have to be perfect by any means, but a rough texture will show through especially in the one-colored sections. An option to liner could be skim-coating the wall, which may be required if you have a really rough texture.
