7. Allocate the drops symmetrically over the wall and start in the middle.
8. Draw perpendicular line at the starting point.
9. Measure off with a strip of wallcovering this gives you a good idea of how the drops will turn out.

11. Measure the height of the wall.
12. Always calculate 10 cm extra for the ceiling and baseboard.
13. Cut the drops to length.
14. Mark the top of each drop.
15. All drops are hung in the same direction, unless the instructions state otherwise.
