Designer Carol Schalla shows how to turn an old stack of recipe cards into a spectacular wall treatment.

Materials:

copied recipes
tape measure
primer
paint
water-based wallpaper paste
polyurethane

Steps:

  1. Select recipes.

  2. Measure wall.

  3. Prime and paint wall.

  4. Copy recipes on a photocopier.

  5. Adhere copies to the wall with paste.

  6. Apply polyurethane over copies.

* Note: The same concept can be applied with a different theme idea. For instance, you can create a decorative floral-print wall with scraps of floral wallpaper.
