It's WISE to DIY: Thrify Ideas for the Do-It-Yourselfer

She Drew All Over Her Wall With A SHARPIE And It Looks AMAZING!!

DIY SHARPIE SCALLOPED WALL

Would you believe that the first thing you need for this (other than your gold Sharpie, is a lid from a tamale steamer?  (If you have a comparable item, that would probably work, too.  However the holes in this lid are helpful.)

She started with a clean slate–a freshly painted wall.

Using her tamale steamer lid (it’s really hard to take myself seriously when I type those words) as a guide, she drew in her scalloped designs across the entire wall with the Sharpie.

Steady hands and patience got her wall to look like this:

It’s a stunning effect that looks like an antique wallpaper!  LOVE LOVE LOVE!!

If you have ever done anything unconventional to a wall, we would really love to see it!

Thank you so much to classy clutter for this great idea, beautiful pics and article inspo.  See their site for more deets on this project.
