Illustrated Cabinets

Give a cabinet or shelves a sense of surprise by lining them with old documents, illustrations,sheet music, or postcards, photocopied to size

Photocopy images onto colored paper, enlarging or reducing as you like ;a proportion wheel helps you calculate the percentage, or you can improvise- a patchwork effect is part of the charm.

The flower image is actually made from six pieces of paper in various shades of blue, not quite aligning. This cabinet has pull out shelving.

Cut paper to fit your cabinet. Brush on wallpaper paste with a foam brush. Apply paper, one at a time, and smooth with a wooden ruler
