Wall paper on wood? Already done....?
Maybe I should have asked this before I started, but its too late now.
I bought some MDF from the local shop and boarded up a door way. I have now put the wall paper up about 1 hour ago but it seems to still be very...loose? I mean I can easily peal it away in the corner.
I am just wondering if it is because of the room being cold, or if it will work at all. The wood is not shiny but is pretty smooth, its general MDF.
It does look ok at the moment but I worry that IF it dries it might look crap and be a pain to remove again.
If I turn the heating on and leave it overnight will it dry OK? Or will it just peel off?
I need to know if I should take it off and try something else...but I'd rather not.
Thanks.

It would have been best to have sealed the wood first with a weak emulsion or size. However you have little to lose by just waiting until it tries and then see what it looks like.
