AnswerYou can Hang wallpaper over wallpaper but it tends to not hold to the walls as well as hanging in on a bare surface. However, if you must, first paint over the old wallpaper with an oil-based paint. If you use acrylic the paper may bubble up. To make a perfectly smooth surface, mud the wall with drywall mud and then smooth by sanding. Finally, paint it again and then hang the paper. Most of the time it is easier just to remove the old paper. See the external link for more information.

There's no reason why you couldn't. If the woodwork in the room you want to paint has already been stained, it will need to be sanded down, primed, and then painted, and vice versa, but you can certainly paint in one room and stain in another if that's what strikes your fancy.
