When I repurpose furniture, I like to add different elements to give it a custom look. Wallpaper is a great way to incorporate fun and creative textures without breaking the bank.

Here’s what you will need:
• Wallpaper paste
• Wallpaper
• Scissors
• Plastic smoothing tool
• Measuring tape
Measure the area you want to wallpaper. Cut the wallpaper to fit. Apply wallpaper paste to the area you want to cover.
Use a smoothing tool to apply the wallpaper. Start in the middle and lightly smooth to the outside edge so the air bubble comes out. Let it dry. Easy Peasy!
