    Has anyone ever wallpapered a dome ceiling?

    I know, I know, it sounds crazy, but I met a decorator in a clients home yesterday and she asked me
    if could be done. It's not a true 'dome', in that it's not half a sphere in the ceiling. It's 21 ft in diameter,
    but only 3 ft higher than ceiling level in the center. As I stood there looking up at this, I started thinking
    to myself that I could do it. It would have to be a random match pattern of course, and I figure I could
    overlap and double-cut my way around. It still sounds crazy, but any thoughts?

    Yes, it can be done. The paper needs to be cut in wedges to fit.

    I would suggest a paper substrate. The non-woven I tried a barrel ceiling with was a bad hour trying. Did not get done, it was painted instead.
    The best of luck. Shawn
