Hi Brenda, hope this helps, try and wet the walls with with a sponge and use a steamer to get the paper of, or close the door and windows of the room and leave the steamer on in the room for half an hour to loosen up the paper and use the steamer directly on the wallpaper. Some wall paper is harder to get of than others especially the wood chip paper. It can be very labour intensive at times hope this helps. Ray
