craft project + day away

today i'm hopping a train to new canaan, ct to visit the philip johnson glass house. they're letting in members of the press today so i'm going to catch metro north and bring my camera to make sure i get lots of pictures. i'll be back tomorrow with loads more but i wanted to share a craft project from last night. just like the drawer project, when i have leftover gift wrap i often find myself taping, decoupaging or sealing it to something in the house. i decided to perk up my closet a bit (since no one sees it but me) by filling the door molding with paper source's nörsa luxe pansies wrap. i only needed two sheets and it took me all of 30 minutes to do. just measure well, cut to size and either use clear contact paper, tape or decoupage glue to secure it. i always suggest tape or contact paper if you're a renter, but if you've found something you love, by all means glue away. you can pick up the gift wrap i used for $2.25 per sheet right here.
