Decorative Wall Shelves

A plain white glass shelving unit is certainly not the most exciting piece of furniture – unless its back wall is covered with a beautiful wallpaper. It's so easy: Create your own wall shelves design!

Level of difficulty Original & quick

We need:

White shelf or glass cabinet

wallpaper with blue-white pattern (here "Indigo Wallpaper blue" by Graham & Brown)

yardstick

pencil

ruler

scissors

tesa® Handicraft tape

This is how we do it:

Collect all items and let's start!

Measure the backwall surface of the cabinet or shelf, and transfer the measurements onto the backside of the wallpaper using the ruler and the pencil. Cut the wallpaper.

Depending on the size of the surface, apply at least six 5-cm pieces of tape at the corners and in the center of the longer sides.

Remove the protective films from the upper border.

Glue the upper border of the wallpaper onto the backwall.

Peel off the protective films on the bottom border, and glue the wallpaper crease-free onto the wall – press firmly.
