hi, when wallpapering around a chimney breast where is the best place to start thanks

[ndp decoratoring services]

generally find the centre of chimney breast and work from this left and right.
however first you must measure from centre line to the left and right ends of breast making sure your paper goes round the edge by at least 5cm or 2inches, any less than this and you will have problems getting the paper to stick, initially it may look as though stuck but as it dries out it will losen and leave the edge away from the wall.
