Book covers
Thick paper and beautiful pattern - it can be used to design books. I started this work with the diary of his son.
I must say that on the blog, I did not stop. Then my son along hem set his cognitive magazines, and the cover made of the same wallpaper. On open shelves for books in his room, the roots look very good.
A simple idea for drawers
If you have a desk or dresser drawers, and this is at all, then you probably know how the bottom is constantly collects some debris. For example, in my son's desk drawers can be found on the slate pencils, pieces of Sturkie and other trifles. This litter is inevitable, and often spoils dnisch5a boxes. To avoid this, you can just put on the bottom of the paper.
In any case, it's better than paper. In addition, the piece can be cut out exactly the size of the box.
Boxes for storage
I try all things are laid in cases that there was nothing to see, but in the nursery a small closet, and often on the lid are some toys or box, which had no place. I decided with the help of old wallpaper to use this space for storing, keeping it in order.
What I like about this version? Firstly, it looks neat, no clutter. Second, if necessary, an easy box can be removed and get out of it all that is needed. Finally, these are in harmony with the design of the opposite wall, which is labeled exactly the same wallpaper. And decorative hearts can even sign the content to make it easy to navigate.

And one more idea to use old wallpaper. She came to my mind when I went over the old children's books. I am opposed in principle to throw the book, you do not think bad. But children grow up, and store books-baby has no sense.
This is not an exhaustive list of ideas from the old wallpaper. They can be used for other purposes, for example, the paste over the inside of the cabinet, or even make the blinds on the windows. But my supply ran out at this stage.
