I was a military brat growing up. I was used to living in temporary houses and, therefore, we couldn't permanently alter the state of the walls. I learned a few nifty tricks from my mom on how to decorate creatively to work around this challenge. In fact, my first townhouse after college, I literally used laundry starch to hang a bed sheet as wallpaper on our kitchen wall. It was a bold navy and white gingham print and once the fabric was securely starched in place, it stayed there for three years. When we got ready to move out, I literally stripped the sheet right off the wall and the paint remained undamaged underneath. Now that I'm "all grown up" I own my house and can wallpaper my walls. Only I haven't pulled that trigger yet because, well, it seems so permanent. Imagine my delight when I recently discovered wallcandyarts...temporary wallpaper that can easily be removed and applied to another location in the house. S
ome of the wallcandyarts prints look destined for a kid's room. But I can also see them in a kitchen, a laundry room, a mudroom, a bathroom...even an office. Each print is available in a half kit ($148) or a full kit ($256). Half kit includes 2 rolls of wallpaper (totaling 5.22 yards in length) and full kit includes 4 rolls of wallpaper (totaling 10.44 yards in length). Each roll is 26" wide by 94" long. Squeegee hand tool included.For a more grown up temporary print, I discovered Tempaper. Sold as 1 double roll of 20.5 in. x 11 yds. = 56.37 sq. ft for an average of $98 each. Check out these great prints:
