Scroll down the page I&#8217;ve linked, to see this particular wall pic &#8211; but read the whole page to get lots of inspiration and ideas.  AND she has a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allthingsthrifty.com\/2010\/03\/tutorial-making-stencil.html\"><b>tutorial<\/b><\/a> on how to make the stencil!<\/p>\n<p>Now, I happen to love the one she shows in this pic &#8211; that it&#8217;s asymetrical, that it&#8217;s turquoise, just because that&#8217;s a great color, and it&#8217;s in a mostly white room &#8211; but those are details that appeal to me. Of course it could be in exactly the color you need &#8211; in whatever configuration works for you. <\/p>\n<p>Yes, you could use wallpaper to achieve this look, especially if the background color of the wallpaper matched your own wall color. But you&#8217;d have to buy a whole roll of wallpaper (probably), in the exact right color, and, well, think how much better to just Do it Yourself.<\/p>\n<p>Especially with a free stencil pattern. And a tutorial. And spending practically nothing. How cool is that?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I found this idea recently and I just love it.
