Are you bummed becasue you can't paint your baby's room due to rental laws or military housing? Well do I have the answer for you! Fabric wall paper. Yes ladies, you heard right. It's wall paper that is in fact fabric. "How can this be?" you ask! Well, God bless the inventor of starch. It works just like wall paper glue, yet, when it comes time to move all you gotta do is peel off the fabric and wipe your walls down. Good as new! AND, you can just toss the "wall paper" into the washing machine and presto - you have nice clean fabric that's good as new to use on another craft project or on another wall! Amazing!

Go to the following link to see how to do it!!

you are so funny Hannah!!! you sound like an infomercial... amkes me want to check it out though!!

Also something that I did with Mackenzies nursery, we rented our house at that time... I made a tree in the corner of her room... I took a huge roll of brown packing paper and stapled it to the corner of the wall then got tectured paper in all diferent greens and browns and cut leaf patterns out of it then hung a whole bunch from yarn on the ceiling above the tree bark... it was soooo cool. ↑

I am still wondering how it doesnt fall off. That could be really neat especially since you can go to Joannes and get fabric dirt cheap and really cute... you could even do a total mix and match. ↑

Wal-mart always has lots of fabric marked down to less than a buck a yard as well. I think it doesn't fall down cause the starch makes it stick to the wall...kinda like the flour glue you use in paper mache ↑

I am so not crafty, but that looks like a cute idea. ↑

That's the great thing....you're not really doing anything to it...just like...hanging a picture or something....cause once you take down the fabric, all you have to do is wash the wall and you can't even tell. My cousin is in the Navy and his wife did this when they had their son cause she couldn't paint the baby's room and she didn't want just plain white walls :0) ↑
