I found this paper when I moved into my new place. I used the green pattern shown above to line my kitchen island drawers. I also used the silver pattern to update an old hand-me down table. It didn't fit the style of my modern apartment, so I applied the contact paper to the top of the table to give it a "stainless steel" look. Cheap fix that looks great until I decide on a new table.

OMG! I was about to order some expensive self-adhesive inkjet paper and print out a pattern similar to the blue and brown dots for a project that I'm working on. Thanks AT, you just saved me $65!

I used the green paper to line the drawers of my dressers and nightstands in our bedroom. It looks great and is nice to open the drawers to see something that matches so well.

I just bought the green liner a week ago with shelf lining in mind, but after staring at my horrible fridge from the 1980's, I decided to see what would come of covering it in this wonderful print. I was fairly skeptical at first, but after having easily covered the whole front of the fridge, I am really happy with the outcome. It blends in well and isn't too loud. I saw someone had done something similar in the past and I guess it put the idea in my head. So whoever that was, thanks! Now my old, normal, ugly fridge is super awesome! I have pics if anyone wants inspiration.

I got the dots paper a while ago and didn't know what I wanted to do with it. Then I decided to use it on my cupboard doors.
