Diffrent ways to use contact paper pt 2

I use contact paper to spice up the wall decor.

Total cost $1.00- but I used spare contact paper I had. 

I bought this wire bird cage from good will for $5! I LOVE IT! But couldn't help the tought of feeling it needed something more.

First I put bird cage on contact paper to trace shape I needed.

I used a wet erase marker so I could simple wipe off excess color.

Put bird cage on top after cutting out to cut off any extra excess. 

Lightly sanded wall wiped down. Hung up cage then put contact paper behind it. I simply pulled off backing slipped it behind and pressed in available spots. Removed caged and made sure it was securely down, and re added cage.

Redid end tables. 

Total cost: $2.00
Our end tables I love them we moved them to room to use as side tables for bed instead of using our smaller dressers. But after a while I got bored with the glass and tired of seeing my storage (knitting supplies) under them. So I covered them in contact paper.

Below are before and after pictures.

Here's what you do simply unfold one end stick and as you slowly work the contact paper on rub top to remove bubbles and pull out some more. Cut ends and wrap under glass. Tada. I had to do two rows so I made sure my patterns were similar when adding second row. :) hope you like!

***also see feb. Post about updating dressers one of those was lining the top with contact paper due to scratches. :)
