My friend Allyson from Day to Day Wonderments recently completed a project that was just too good not to share! She, like many of us, is a renter and not allowed to change the paint color or wallpaper her home. But she LOVES the look of wallpaper, don't we all? Enter a creative solution to an annoying problem.
