This wallpaper was used on my bedroom ceiling in place of tin tiles.  We painted the wallpaper with antique gold metallic paint and it looks fabulous.  The wallpaper is good quality and books well with wallpaper paste.  It can rip if you are not careful when you put up large strips.  Our ceiling was 12' high so we had 2 people on ladders putting up 8 ft x 21" strips.
