Hanging wallpaper, paste the paper, or the wall?

Paper. With a roller.

What were the complaints about the Laura Ashley paper?

The negative reviews I read were around the quality of the paper - thin, easy to tear, difficult to hang, issues with shrinkage. Some of the negative comments were made by decorators people had used. We used it for my sister-in-law's bedroom and it was quite easy to rip/tear, and difficult to get a clean cut when trimming the edges.

Had to make sure that each drop was allowed the same length of time between pasting and hanging

Yup I suspect it was because we weren't doing that.
