This is a DIY project that makes craft paper look like distressed leather on your floors.

The instructions are given by The Budget Decorator and the project certainly can be done on a budget, requiring only brown paper and polyurethane. I would proceed with caution, maybe making a sample "floor" before jumping in.

The site says you can damp mop the surface to clean and that the flooring will last for years, but I'd test a sample first. I think this could definitely be used sucessfully on a wall surface. -regina
