If you rent an apartment or live in a dorm, you may be stuck with ugly walls that you aren't allowed to paint. Or perhaps your wall color is fine, but you have little art to hang and a small decorating budget. You can use contact paper to make vinyl wall-art stickers that are both inexpensive and removable. Contact paper will not damage your walls, and you can move them with you to future homes. Colored contact paper is available in large rolls at craft and office-supply stores.
Instructions
1. Lay your stencil on the contact paper and tape in place. You can purchase stencils from craft stores or make your own with cardstock or poster board.
2. Cut around the stencil with your scissors. Cut out any small pieces with a craft or utility knife.
3. Peel the backing from the contact paper. Place it on your wall.
4. Smooth the sticker from the center outward, removing any air bubbles trapped under it.
5. Remove the sticker by gently peeling it off the wall in a single motion.
