Wall covering

11 years ago

We have a half wall that separates our stairs and our farm table. No matter what I do - I can never seem to keep this wall clean of scuff marks. It drives me crazy. I was cleaning out a closet and found these random 12x12 photo's that I had made from snapfish.com for another project that never made it off the ground and viola! How many times do the unplanned project measurements actually work out!

Though I would prefer to have all the photos in b&w or a connecting theme - I can't turn my nose up at the perfect fit and the solution to the dirty wall/scuff mark problem! This wall faces our fireplace the last pic is to give you sense of the casual feel to the room.

It's a great solution. Since the pictures on the mantel are mixed(color and black & white) a similar makeup on the half wall is fitting. You could also wrap it with reclaimed wood for a different look.

I think you already have a great ideas with the pictures. another option would be just put up a plexiglass there and behind it you could put a fabric that would match your decorations or just leave the glass on the wall. it's easy to clean just with water and soupe

Suggestions are always appreciated! Who knows how long I'll be satisfied with this before I think of changing it! I like both the reclaimed wood and plexiglass ideas, thanks!

I'm still just a little giddy with the whole notion that I didn't spend a penny and the pics fit perfectly and they can be wiped down and cleaned. Thanks again
