Paint by Numbers Wallpaper

I think this wallpaper, on clearance for around $20 a roll (27 in x 27 ft) at Target, could be a fun project.


It's from Jenny Wilkinson's Wallpaper-By-Number's Series. The background is a pretty aqua blue, but the flowers and leaves are white and meant to be colored in by you with your choice of paint, colored pencils or markers.


The possibilities are endless! I like the idea of a fun fuchsia/orange/teal/black combo for the inside of my girls' closet.


And floral wallpaper inside girlie closets always reminds me of Ruthie Sommers...

    "hamptontoes" has some pretty DIY wallpapered closets and pantries that you would love. pretty papers in closets remind me of the inside of jewelry boxes.

    What a great idea to make a closet look pretty inside! My daughter has black and white paisley wallpaper and I am inspired - I think I'll cut a section of the leftover have her color it in, and frame it!

    How is it possible that each and every post of yours has me drooling that much more? I really cannot get enough of your style.

    Love your inside the closet idea! Just one wall or a picture frame of the "artwork" would do me in!

    How fun! And I am in LOVE with that floral wallpaper in the back of the closet - so pretty!

    Sounds like fun in principle. Don't know that I'd have the stamina to finish a whole wall though. A small application like in the closet would be a good size project.
