Wallpaper has not said its last word! A real decorative asset, it has adorned our interiors for years. Only here is after the installation, when we have finished relooking our walls , there are always a few excess strips of wallpaper . We think big, always. Results ? Whole rolls remain under our arms. From then on, we pile them discreetly in a closet or we resolve to throw them away. What a mistake ! Because as Antoine Lavoisier, who rocked our chemistry lessons, would say:nothing is lost, everything is transformed . This is the very principle of DIY .
Contrary to popular belief, falls of wallpaper easily recycled . On a piece of furniture, a staircase, a door or a flowerpot, the wallpaper adapts to all supports. For this, it is necessary to have special glue, a brush or a smoothing spatula, and of course a cutter. Then it's child's play, let your imagination run wild! You can line the bottom of the drawers to create personalized storage, make a patchwork headboard with several wallpapers or even customize shelves that are a little too simple.
