Yesterday I showed you how to print on drop cloth fabric. Today I’m going to show you how I printed on bead board wallpaper.

The sticky label paper I used on the drop cloth is very sticky. I think it would be too sticky for the backing of the wallpaper.

This sticky label paper is “removable”. I applied it to the back of the bead board wallpaper. I then cut the paper to size. The wallpaper was a trade off. I traded this table for the wallpaper a couple of months ago.

I used a really pretty floral graphic from The Graphics Fairy.

I was asked about my printer, it is a photo smart from HP. I’m assuming that it is an inkjet printer.

The ink did take quite a while to completely dry on the wallpaper.

decorating with frames Did you notice how well the ridges of the wallpaper line up with the ridges on the wall? I simply attached the wallpaper to the wall with some double sticky tape.

I would say the possibilities may be endless as to what I can print on this wallpaper.

  3. Love how that printed out on the wallpaper. Now if I can just get up the nerve to run that fabric through my printer. Love that little pillow you made and YES… I love anything French. My new obsession Ü

  4. Gail, Gail, Gail….I LOVE IT! I am amazed that wallpaper went through your printer so easily. I have some beadboard wallpaper, but it’s the thick foam-like stuff…doubt it would go through. Yours is just thin regular wallpaper right? I missed how you printed on the drop cloth, I’ll have to go check that out too! :)Have a blessed day lady!TTYLMissyPS aren’t you enjoying the heck out of the lower humidity around here?!! 🙂 woo hoo!

  5. Gail, that’s amazing!! I love every stinkin inch of this project and love your wall. I’ve got to give this a try.

  6. wow gail …you are just the creative junkster…loving the canvas print and now the wallpaper. how cool!

    judi 😉

  7. Gorgeous… the possibilites are endless with that procedure… Oh my mind is going fifty miles an hour now… I have some burlap I would love to do this on. Now I have to go buy a printer… I only have a laser printer wonder if that would work too… thanks for posting.

    Granny J you can buy the paper at Home Depot.

    Hugs, Deb

  8. This looks great! I love both the wallpaper and the fabric. I really want to try the fabric. Your pillow is just beautiful. I wonder if there is a way to set the ink so it can be washed.

  9. Wow. I never think to put anything through my printer but regular old paper. What amazing ideas you have – the possibilities are endless! Thanks for sharing these awesome ideas. Your pictures and pillow are simply fabulous!

  10. I love the beadboard wallpaper. That’s what I need for the back of my hutch. Wonder if I can buy it locally or have to order it online. Your pillow is beautiful. That silhouete looks perfect above the doll.

  11. I love the idea of printing on the beadboard wallpaper. The flowers look particularly beautiful. (funny that you traded a table for it) haha. Again, the full-size stickers. It sure seems to give these pieces enough body to get pulled through. Love the tips, Gail!
