The other day, I typed in the phrase “make ugly refrigerator more pretty,” and came across this blog.

    In it, the author talks about wallpapering her refrigerator (she uses contact cement instead of wallpaper paste.) Brilliant! However, she also notes that the paper tends to fray over time.

FDG’s solution? Wallpaper frames - instead!

    Using the contact cement, apply a panel of wallpaper slightly smaller than the area you wish to cover. Then, add picture mouldings with magnets attached to the bottom. Worried about using contact cement? Then simply add magnets to the bottom of the paper, as well.

What’s a great source for FREE magnets? All of those mailings you receive with magnets enclosed. A certain insurance agent I know seems to send me one every few months. Trade shows are also a great source for free magnets.

    Do you have fun wallpaper craft ideas or a solution to the “make ugly refrigerator more pretty” search? Share it below!

FDG loves a good idea…as long as it’s frugal.
