DIY Project Parade

Hi! I hope you had a great weekend!  It was a perfect fall day here today and we went to the pumpkin patch.  I've been working on something but I'm not quite ready to show it yet. (sneak peek here)  Anna from Room 2 Think has a great tutorial for her super easy, super cheap zebra print.  Check it out!  For $8 and 30 minutes, Amanda created this:

Materials: 
  • Foam board
  • Contact paper

Anna says the trick is to cut out lines that weren’t to curvy but not to straight either. Use a picture of a zebra as a guide. Anna laid the strips of un-peeled contact paper onto the foam board before peeling them.


Check out the full tutorial, before and afters, decorating and other projects at Room 2 Think. Anna and her sister Sarah have amazing DIY and decorating skills.

Now, let's see what's been keeping you busy!
