We are "peel and stick challenged" but with two people we made it work. I put this on two walls in a guest bedroom, and painted the other two walls a complimentary yellow. The walls had a knockdown texture (a bit bumpy) and I did not want to bother with the hassle of smoothing the surface first, but I did test it with a sample first. It came out looking very nice. No problems with it sticking. There are some panels that had bubbles that we were never able to fully remove, which our textured walls contributed to, but honestly I don't even notice any bubbles now that it's finished. I would attach a photo of the completed project but don't see an option here to do that. Considering our skill level and the wall texture I'd say this turned out much better than I expected.
