weekend project

As a continuation of Thursday's post {wall fancy}, here are a few project ideas if you want to play around with wallpaper but aren't quite ready to commit (this also goes for the apartment dwellers, like myself)

1. Use it to organize
this cool magnet board is fun and functional. Instructions here. You could also make it a marker board by covering it with laminating paper.


or cover a clipboard to use in the office

2. Use it on furniture
find or buy a piece of furniture that could use a little attention. This project uses a blown up photograph of a print, but you could wallpaper the insets of paneled doors, or use it as a drawer liner too.


or in a bookshelf. Instructions here.

3. Frame It

create a collection of scrap or vintage papers, or use one large piece to make a bold and textural statement. Image courtesy of gaita interiors

4. Make a fake wall. Cover a large panel (or several panels) of plywood with your paper of choice. You can mount these directly to the wall and patch holes later, or just lean them against the wall.

Happy Weekend!
