walls.
just a tip for those who cannot paint. as in, most of us.
just like you can use tissue paper and spray starch on your windows to create a stained glass effect, you can do the same thing to your walls. i've done it in two rooms in light colors, over white walls. i wouldn't recommend doing it in a dark color because the color could bleed a little and i don't know how easy it would be to get out, but the light colors just come right off with some water and a sponge. spray the spray starch in an even coat on the area, and press the tissue paper to it while its still wet. I use a rolling pin sometimes to even out wrinkles, but I've also left them in to create a textured effect.
just an idea. plus it's way faster than fabric-ing the walls. (and since tissue paper is dirt cheap and so is spray starch, it's way cheaper than the fabric alternative as well)
