Hello.

I have had a 'feature' wall papered using some William Morris print paper. It looks lovely and I am very please.
Its not a big wall but it comes out special.

Now I splashed out on the (Sanderson) paper - it was expensive. Now I have some left - maybe about 10 feet maybe less.

But what can I do with it. I certainly don't want to discard it.
What simple craft could I do?
I'd love to hear suggestions.
Thank you.

Any chance of a picture of the finished product?
Maybe to inspire the rest of us?

Beautifully composed Noola you have placed the pattern well.

Was this just a shop-bought frame or was it one you had already from a piece of artwork?

Thank you - though the idea of course came from here - I have few original ideas in my head!

I MawtheMerrier I shop bought a few frames all the same as one in photo as I had a plan - which never reached fruition.

I do though keep a stock of old frames and though I have too many its surprising how they 'come in'
