i think http://www.wallsplots.com has pretty cool decals.

Great idea! I just made my own 3 silhouettes for my kitchen wall! I used 2 tones of wood contact paper (cannot find black in my hood) turned out great, of course the one of the cat turned out best ;) I would love to share a photo with ya? How do I do that?

this was a great episode! i have just ONE little problem. i am OBSESSED with wall decals. they're cute, and non permanent. and i'm always looking to make my home more art friendly and unique. but here's the thing: apartment living in arizona... we've got textured walls EVERYWHERE! and unless you have a smooth surface it's impossible to decal. how can i spruce up my walls if it's not a smooth surface?

beautiful. I'll check out the other sites. I love this idea. I'm going to make a dragon for our bedroom. Nice dog. I have a chihuahua too. She watched the video with me and she sure was paying attention when she saw the dog :)

So... I'm just NOW responding to this episode because I'm new to threadbangers and have been watching via my ipod. Anyway LOVE LOVE LOVE this quick and easy project. I can't wait to get started. My walls are so bare and i need to add some life! Question: where's the best place to buy contact paper... I've been searching all kinds of stores and can't find the colors I want/need. Anywhere online you would recommend?

I LOVE the paper walls idea by Nienie Dialogues ! I like how she made the fans and put it all over the walls. But where would you find those gorgeous colourful pieces of paper to fold?

Thanks for the great idea Meg. I watched the episode and thought. Wow, what a great idea, but I wouldn't need to do it. But then it got me thinking... And this is what I came up with! I'm excited to do more, too! http://tinyurl.com/5j9lak to see my decal!

If you can't locate contact paper at your local hardware store, try online! Here are a few links: http://housewares.hardwarestore.com/37-188-contact-papers.aspx http://www.acehardware.com/sm-contact-paper--ci-2627938_cp-2568448.2626073.html http://www.designyourwall.com/store/Self-Adhesive-Shelf-Liner-Contact-paper-c-123.html Peel, stick and send me the video and pics: tips@threadbanger.com xox, Meg

best diy yet!

I am in love with this idea! My problem is that I've spent two days scouring my local hardware/big box/craft stores and still not found solid contact paper. (I've had several customer service employees look blankly at me: "What department would it be in?" ... if I knew that, I'd be looking there right now!) Does anyone have suggestions on where to hunt for it at a physical location?

We did an entire tree with Contact paper. Wood grain for the trunk and branches, four greens for the leaves. I put a gold metallic sun with a smiley face in one corner and a silver metallic moon and stars over the beds. The kids cut white into clouds. Sorry no pictures avalible, this was in 1979!! Everything old is new again!

That dog! Gah! Meanwhile why didn't I think of this when I lived in a dorm? I even had contact paper handy! Oh well...

Thanks for this! Ive been looking for a way to add more color to my white walls! But one thing that annoys me is where to get the contact paper. I live in sweden and contact paper doesnt come up in my dictionary so it would be really cool, for future episodes, if you can say where to buy the stuff youre using :) I mean what do you normally use contact paper for? It would be really helpful, i really want to try this out! Thankyou very much :D

OMG!!! I have been doing that DIY decal stuff at my job for months now ( I'm a pre school teacher, the decals change with the month) and for whatever reason, it never dawned on me to do the same thing in my apartment!!! Thanks for reminding me! :)

Great ideas - especially now that contact paper isn't as sticky as it was years ago - Love the branch! Too bad my walls are covered with pix. And the silhouettes - marvellous. You could also just put a roll of contact paper across a wall & then adhere other pix onto it with tape. They do have some nice patterns - & you can even score them at the 99 Cent store & other bargain outlets.

What a cute idea! I'm surprised at how much those cutouts look liked you! Keep on making my tuesdays brighter with some more great ideas!

This is so awesome!!! I am about to move into a gorgeous vintage building in the "art district" in my city and can't paint. I already have so many ideas. and I have to say I am so so so so so glad that there is a home version of threadbanger. I love this!!!

Woot! I'm going to be working at a camp this summer, and last summer my walls were so dull! This will be so awesome for decorating my ... bunk ... area. XD

Love the silhouettes (and your show!)

Great idea, except it's been done. And it isn't allowed in any dorms I know of. Be sure to check.

This is so fascinating, but because I don't have sound of my computer, is there a text step-by-step for this? I'd love to use it, but there's really only so much lip-reading I can do....xD I think a text version of all these would be really helpful, thanks if you can!

Love the episode!!!! This could also be a great gift idea for someone special - who doesn't want a cute little shadow of their beloved pet or could be a cute decorating concept idea for a baby room, so sweet. ps - your hair is killing me it is so cute!!!

And I LOVE your silhouette decals!

Thanks for yet more great ideas. I didn't realize that wall decals were so easy to take off the wall - I always imagined they left a sticky mess!

oh wow, this is perfect! i was just about to go out and buy paint for my wall.. for a mural, but contact paper is such a good idea because i can just peel it off when i'm tired of it :D

inspired solution for those who can't paint and want to get really creative!! As always, you maximize fun and creativity without spending a billion dollars. bravo, AGAIN!

I LOVE THE SILHOUETTES! Classic, timeless and yet totally modern. Fantastic episode.

OMG this is SO cool! i love the decal/wall stickers! i always wanted to buy some, but they are really expensive. now i can make my own!

Meg, great ideas for my daughter going off to college! Love your ideas!

I just moved into a new place with way more wall space than I knew what to do with, so this episode is especially helpful for me! Great ideas as always!

Sooo cute! Meg's hair is awesome. I especially love the branch decal above the bed, really sharp!

Great episode Meg! Thanks so much, because I was actually trying to come up with great DIY wall ideas that weren't permanent since I rent an apartment! It's like you read my mind!

Great Ideas! Your apartment really looks great! I also really love your dog!!!!!
