Not Afraid of Color? Spice it Up

Unusual Leather Wall


Looking an easy way to make a wall feature?  I found this picture at http://www.fopple.com/This ususual leather wall was decorated by Silven and Studioart and I fell in love with this piece.  Although the site didn't tell me how this wall was put together, it inspired me to share with you how I would do it.  Now whether you want to do the whole wall or just a small feature.  Measure the area you want to do and go out and get some plywood.  Cut the plywood into squares of all shapes.  I would then take some cotton backing and wrap each individual square.  Laether can be a bit expensive so I would take different types of fabric, solids, print, shiny and anything that catch your eye.  Wrap each individual square with the material of your choice. When your all done nail to the wall and hang them in the pattern that you want.  Again another inexpensive way to give your space a new look.
