The nearest independent retailer to Gillingham is Astra Decor in Sittingbourne (circa 25 miles) other than that C.Brewer and sons (pattern books only). The best independent in the south of England is Basildon wallpapers who are also online which would be 35 minutes away. Also could buy the product online at Go wallpaper or Wallpaper Central. Hope this helps!

Hi Victoria,
Your nearest retailer is Brewers Decorator Centre, 20 Orchard Business Centre, Sanderson Way, Vale Road, Tonbridge TN9 1QQ, Phone: 01732 356009.
Brewers do not carry rolls of wallpapers in stock, but they have sample books of the Sparkle items and also can provide you with samples to take home. They will then order the quanitity you need from their distribution centre.
Another option is to order directly from an online retailer who can also provide you with samples upon request. If you google “Muriva Sparkle” several retailers will come up. Wallpaper Central, Go Wallpaper, I Love Wallpaper, I Want Wallpaper and Lancashire Wallpapers are a few.
Hope this helps!

hi
my daughter loved the soft pink sparkle paper we found in B&Q but it was out of stock. Every website i have checked only seems to stock hot pink. are you still manufacturing the soft pink?
Dear Louisa,
The soft pink Sparkle is a colour that is exclusive to B&Q, so can only be purchased through them. If your local B&Q is out of stock, they can either order it in for you from another store or their distribution centre, or you can order it yourself online on B&Q’s website:
https://www.diy.com/departments/sparkle-pink-texture-metallic-glitter-wallpaper/1279552_BQ.prd
Hope your daughter enjoys her lovely pink sparkly room!
Best wishes
Anne at Muriva
Hi Louisa,
just to add to my comment above: We will be delivering a large amount of the soft pink Sparkle to B&Q’s central distribution this Friday, so they should have it back in stock next week. It is a brand new product for them and it usually takes a bit of time to adjust their stock planning accordingly.
Hope this helps,
Anne
Hi, I have purchased the silver sparkle wallpaper. I have put it up in my living room as a feature wall, however you can really see the vertical lines where the wallpaper joins. Is this the way the paper has been hung, or is this a common fault? As I just presumed it would all blend and look like a whole sparkly wall. Quite disappointed. Going to have to re do. Thanks
Hi Leanne,
I’m sorry you were disappointed with the results after hanging your wallpaper.
The best thing to do is to register your complaint with the retailer you purchased the item from. The retailer can assess the product either in situ, or via images you provide. If the fault is with the product and not the installation, the retailer will handle the complaint with us.
Thank you
Best wishes

Hi Yvonne,
Unfortunately we can only provide samples via authorized Muriva retailers who stock the product. Several of them offer a sampling service online – for example, Wallpaper Central, Go Wallpaper, Lancashire Wallpapers, I Love Wallpaper, or I Want Wallpaper, to name a few. If you google “Muriva Sparkle” you will see more listings to choose from.
The prices for Sparkle are set by the retailers as well. It tends to retail around £19.99 per roll.
Hope this helps!

Could you tell me where our nearest stockist is for the gold metallic to romford. We have tried b&q but they said they won’t get it back in stock for a long time. Can u tell me where else we can buy it from thankyou
Hi Claire,
In the Romford area you could try Brewer’s Decorator’s, who can show you samples of the Sparkle Gold and can order the product in for you.
Alternatively, many of our stockists offer the product online: Go Wallpaper, Wallpaper Central, Amazon, Select Wallpaper, Lancashire Wallpaper, Decorsave, Homeflair Decor, and various sellers on eBay. If you search for Muriva Sparkle Gold on Google the listings will appear. You can also contact these retailers for a sample should you require one.
Hope this helps!

I too have just bought the silver sparkle. What a night mare to hang. Also joins are terrible. ????. So very disappointed ???????? cheap paper too thin.
Dear Alison,
I’m sorry you had a disappointing experience with out silver Sparkle wallpaper. It is actually one of our best-selling wallpapers and actually the rate of complaints is extremely low.
As our company operates to ISO9001 standard, we do like to follow up on any complaints to ensure there are no faults with our product. From what you are describing, I am wondering if the fault could lie with the direction of the paper, or with the paste, or both?
If you read the product specifications and the hanging instructions (on the front and reverse of the label), you will see that the product needs to be hung with all strips in the same direction as they came off the roll – in other words, NOT reverse hung with the strips alternating in direction. If you alternate the strips, the joins will show.
Another important point is to use ready mixed heavy duty wallcoverings adhesive – like you would for any vinyl wallcoverings. Cheap paste, especially when mixed with too much water, can damage all wallpapers (in general) and can also make some of the ink come off if it bleeds out between the seams.
If you have investigated both points and still find that the fault lies with the product, please contact the retailer you purchased it from, and ask about their return policy, and what they can do to help.
Best wishes
Anne at Muriva
Hi anne. Thank you for your response. But I don’t believe it was how good the paste was or how it was hung. The paste was solvite an we followed the instructions to the letter. In my appoion its the thickness of the paper is were the problem is. Its such a shame cus on the roll it looks ace ????
Hi Alison,
Sorry for the delay in replying; we have been so busy!!
I’m sorry to hear this. The paper has been the same for all production runs of Sparkle, and in addition there is a layer of vinyl, and Mylar (which gives it the metallic effect). So it is actually quite a heavyweight product as wallpapers go. The only thing I can suggest is that you ask the retailer where you bought the product to have a look (or send them a sample) and they can judge it by experience and hopefully give you an opinion. If the paper is faulty, then of course the retailer would sort it with us and get you a replacement.
Kind regards

Hi I’m after the black sparkle wall paper I live in Bury BL9 they only do silver & gold in B&m bargains is there any where near to me where I can get it please ?
Hi Gillian,
There are quite a few of our retailers in your area, for example Your4Walls in Ramsbottom, GoWallpaper in Bolton, Lancashire Wallpapers in Oldham, or O’Neills Decorating Centre in Rochdale.
It is always saftest to ring ahead of time to see if they have the black Sparkle in stock, but all of the retailers mentioned trade online as well, and can order the product in for you if it is not physically in store. They can also order a sample for you, should you require one.
Hope this helps!
Best wishes,

Hi, I purchased the Sparkle in Mink. It looks awful as you see the joins and the wall looks like some strips are a different shade altogether. I read your previous comments about reading the instructions about hanging the paper as hanging the wrong way gives a colour change. However, the instructions on the label are general instructions that talk about “allowing for pattern repeat” and to “CONFIRM the desired direction of the pattern before hanging” . To the general public, there is no pattern to this wallpaper so you would think there’s no match………I don’t feel your instructions are clear enough and specific to the Muriva Sparkle range.
I am going to have to strip the walls again and purchase more paper and start again from the beginning …..an expense that could’ve been spared if you had more specific instructions on the label. Very disappointed and now out of pocket!!
Hi Pauline,
I am sorry to hear about your disappointment.
We have taken your comments on board and on future labels we will add the phrase “do not reverse hang”, as for some reason some consumers seem to reverse hang the product – meaning one strip goes in one direction and the next one in another – be it by accident or on purpose, because they think it might give a better effect (which clearly it doesn’t).
Would you kindly email your complaint to info@muriva.com, indicating where and when you bought the product, and our customer service team will be in touch with you.
Thank you for taking the time to write.

Hello. Can you please recommend where I can get this from in black. Thanks
Hi Joanne,
Can you let me know where you are based please so that I can recommend a retailer near you? Or are you looking to order the product online?
Thank you
Anne at Muriva
We have recently launched a new wallpaper website and have the Muriva Sparkle Silver available at £19.99. Visit: https://www.wardgroupinteriors.co.uk/product/muriva-sparkle-silver/
Can you please let me know if this paper needs any special adhesive? Thank you
Hi Carol,
As it is a heavyweight vinyl, we recommend that you use a heavy duty, ready mixed adhesive from a reputable brand, such as Solvite or PRIDE. This will prevent “watery” paste coming out between the seams. If there is a lot of paste to wipe off, then there is a danger of taking some of the glitter / ink off as well.
It is also important that the paper is NOT reverse-hung. It is directional, and all strips should be hung in the same direction top to bottom. So please ensure you are aware of the correct direction of your strips before you hang them. Hope this helps.
I’m sure you will be pleased with the end result! It is one of our most popular collections!
Best wishes

Do not buy worst paper I have ever had hangs terrible shows up every join paper goes lighter and darker patchy had it put up by profession decorator and he said it is the worst paper he’d ever seen and hung
Hello Stevie,
I’m sorry to hear that you have had problems hanging this wallpaper. Please note that Sparkle is a directional texture, meaning the strips will reflect light differently if they are turned upside down. This is why we indicate on the front of the label to NOT REVERSE HANG the texture. If you reverse hang any metallic texture, the first strip will reflect light one way – appearing lighter – and the next strip, hung the wrong way round, will reflect the light another way – appearing darker. Hence you get the “football lawn” effect of light and dark that you are describing. We also recommend on the label that you test hang 3 strips before continuing, to ensure that you are getting the correct result. However, if you don’t think the texture has been reverse hung, and the fault lies with the product, then please take the remaining rolls and the labels from the rolls you have already hung to the retailer you purchased the product from, along with your purchase receipt. It might be helpful to also take a few pictures to show the retailer. The retailer can assess the situation and if necessary, contact us to start a returns procedure. If the fault lies with the product, we are more than happy to send the retailer replacement rolls which he can pass on to you. If you have any further queries, please contact our quality assurance manager Cheryl at info@muriva.com.
Sincerely,
Anne at Muriva
I was careful to not reverse hang, looks awful, you can see every join in the paper, really disappointed, and from reading reviews it doesn’t seem like it’s just my problem
Hi Liz,
Really sorry to hear you experienced problems after hanging your wallpaper. As you can see from previous comments, most issues unfortunately stem from either using the wrong adhesive, not adhering to the required soaking time, or from using the wrong amount of adhesive and therefore wiping the seams too vigorously. If you did use ready mixed adhesive for vinyl wallpaper (as it states on the label), and you feel that the issue lies with the printing of the wallpaper itself, then please take your remaining rolls (of the same batch you purchased) plus any labels of the rolls you have already hung (to show the batch number) back to the retailer you purchased the product from. Also if you could please take some pictures on your phone to show the retailer. The retailer can assess the situation and if necessary start a returns procedure with us.
I am very sorry for the invconvenience, but as we only supply to the trade, any returns have to be prompted by the retailer according to their customer service policy.
Sincerely,
Anne at Muriva
I to bought the Muriva Sparkle wallpaper from Price Right Home. Had the same think happen to me. Could see every joining line. Contacted supplier and was told it was my decorators fault. Got a second decorator to hang the paper and he made sure it was all hung in the correct way from the roll, but still could see every joining line. To make matters worse my decorator used strong adhesive as suggested and now a month after hanging it has started to peel away from the wall. Price Right Home are not interested and keep blaming it on my decorators. Disgusted. Glad I am not alone with this wallpaper problem. Seems quite a few other people have had the same issue and also it says repeat pattern on the instructions. Do not buy this wallpaper. You will regret it and won’t get your money back for it.
Hello Amanda,
We have checked our records and strangely enough we don’t seem to have any previous emails from you. We have also contacted your retailer, Price Right Home (aka Argofield), and they have checked their databases as well and don’t seem to have any communication from you either. Sometimes emails do get held back by spam folders, but for this to happen at both companies simultaeously is hightly unlikely. We do stand behind our product and from the tens of thousands of rolls of Sparkle we have sold, only a minute percentage of complaints stemmed from the product being flawed. The vast majority of complaints relate to using the wrong paste, not observing the correct soaking time, rubbing the seams too vigrously, or acccidentally reverse hanging the product. We do want to help, so if you could please contact your retailer again (seeing as they have not received your first complaint), or you can email any photos plus item and batch numbers to our quality assurance manager Cheryl at info@muriva.com.
Sincerely,
Anne at Muriva
Why dont you stop blaming everyone else for the fact you can see the joins when the wallpaper is on the wall? I haven’t actually seen a photo of this wallpaper or the Amelia wallpaper (which I have) where there are no joins visible. But there we go, everyone who has it must be hanging it wrong.
Hello Laurie,
As our fault rate for this product is less than 1%, we are asking customers if they have followed the hanging instructions and used the correct paste. I am not saying that the product cannot ever be faulty. If you believe there is a fault in the printing of the product, would you kindly take the rest of the roll (and the roll label with the batch number) back to the retailer you purchased the product from. It would also be helpful if you took some pictures with your phone and showed them to the retailer. The retailer can then assess if the joins you are seeing are caused by a production fault. Based on their assessment, they will then start a returns procedure with us. In addition, they can help you in accordance with their return policy. As we don’t sell directly to end users, we rely on our network of retailers to help their customers. If you find your retailer to be unhelpful, please email us confidentially at info@muriva.com
Sincerely
Anne at Muriva
