9 Creative Ways To Reuse Peel And Stick Wallpapers

The 9 Most Productive Solutions For Peel-And-Stick Wallpapers

Home wallpaper treatment projects involve adjusting the wallpaper to fit various nooks and corners around the home. Hence, you’ll find various large and small pieces of peel-and-stick wallpaper left behind at the end of the day.

You can benefit immensely from these wallpaper remains by upcycling them for productive and graceful solutions. Let’s start with the first prolific idea for peel-and-stick wallpaper usage.

1. Brighten Your Lampshade

Lampshades are one of the most highlighting features that can either spruce up or tone down the interior outlook. Most lamp covers come in solid unified colors and therefore, don’t offer a striking appearance.

However, you can glow up your lamp covers using the remains of removable wallpapers. And irrespective of whether you have a floor lamp, side table lamp, or hanging pendant lamp, you can breathe new life into any type you desire with this mini DIY project.

For this purpose, you need to be precise in cutting the wallpaper into the exact shape and dimensions of the lampshade. The best approach is to line the outside of the wallpaper after covering the lampshade to eliminate any chances of error.

That’s because you may not find another piece of wallpaper big enough to cover the lampshade. And for adding more radiance, you can wallpaper the inside of the lamp covering (only for hanging pendant lampshades).

2. Wallpaper The Inside Of The Closet

Adding a pop of color to the wardrobe is something to be worth investing your time and effort in. For this purpose, you may have to attach several pieces of wallpaper remnants together using super glue to cover the inside of the closet completely.

This trick creates promising results for open closets (just as for children’s wardrobes). And, no need to mention that you can swap the design patterns with time for enjoying a complementary appearance.

3. Transform The Drawers

Most people recommend using contact papers or shelf liners for aesthetic drawer conversions. However, another great idea is to apply the leftover wallpapers on the inside of the dresser drawers, or all other home drawers for that matter. Doing that will add a ton of color to the drawers and make them presentable in appearance.

4. Refurbish The Storage Boxes

Most people use cardboard boxes and somewhat large-sized tin cans for household storage purposes. If you’ve got at home some old, worn-out cardboard boxes, then instead of throwing them out of the house you can refurbish and use them further.

While the idea may seem insignificant in particular, the results are promising. Because you’ll have all the storage boxes covered with the same style of wallpaper leftovers. And that will give a distinctively delightful appearance to your storage.

5. Customize The Kitchen Cabinets

If you’re left with more than enough remains of peel-and-stick wallpaper and don’t know what to do with them, then this creative idea is for you! The kitchen cabinet doors can be wallpapered in the same style and thus, will offer a more personalized, attractive appearance.

Besides, this wallpaper trick can significantly change the course of the kitchen interior appearance by adding a new dimension to the kitchen design. Again, the design patterns can be replaced (as it’s a peel-and-stick wallpaper) once you think of a kitchen remodeling project.

6. Add More Design To The Ceiling

Obviously, you will be left with not enough remains to completely wallpaper the ceiling after a home wallpaper treatment project. Still, you can create design patterns in the ceiling using removable wallpaper remnants.

For this purpose, you need to initially create different design shapes like rhombus, diamond, etc by attaching the wallpaper pieces together. Then, according to the number of design pieces you have, you can decorate the ceiling.

7. Think Of A Stairs Makeover

Stairs are used an uncountable number of times during the day and therefore, thinking of a stairs makeover using wallpaper leftovers will be an observant home design upgrade. For this purpose, you can wallpaper the stairs completely if you’ve got the means to do so (have enough wallpaper left).

Contrary to that, you can apply the wallpaper only in the middle area of each step of the staircase. Another alternative is to leave one step and remodel the next one using the remains of wallpaper.

8. Design Wall Art & Pieces

Another highlighting DIY home improvement project is to create fashionable coasters for wall art purposes. The best thing about this DIY project is that you will require different design patterns for this purpose and therefore, need not worry about wallpaper design considerations.

All you need is a few paperboards, super glue, and different designs of wallpaper leftovers. You can hang these coasters on different walls in your home for uplifting the charm and attractiveness of the interior design.
