with very old (and ugly) furniture, like me, you know how hard it is to make something ‘pretty’. You can’t invest or change much. That’s why I’m super excited about these self-adhesive decorative foils.

This is my most-used working surface in the kitchen:

It’s tiny, and it’s ugly.

But look at it now!

Guess what, I bought 5 rolls ($2 each). You can imagine what will the kitchen look like when I’m done with it 

Anyway, I just wanted to suggest, if you want to change something, and can’t afford or live in a rented place, a self-adhesive decorative foil is a way to go. It’s plastic and has no problem with water or grease. And it’s fun to apply it! 😀

Have fun getting that off again when you move out. 

These are actually very easy to remove 🙂 Leaves no glue on the surface where it was and doesn’t do any damage. I did this before, so I’m good 🙂

Update! I’ve had these foils for almost two years now, and I want to show you how the original surface looks like when you take it off:

See? Nothing 🙂 Easy to take off and no glue residues. I finally got rid of that pink paisley. 😅 

Of course, I couldn’t resist of doing the table, too.

Can i get link to where to buy them from?

I bought these in a wallpaper/paint store in Croatia, but it’s called contact paper (just learned that now, thanks) or self-adhesive foil, so you can find it like that 🙂

By the way! This stuff is also super cool for if you want to decorate your sketchbooks or other stuff
A friend of mine used to cut little stars and hearts out of them and put them onto her clipboard 

I forgot about that!

I got this planner/notebook from my bank which was nice, but (of course) I didn’t like the promotional cover, so I did this:

Now it’s my recipe-testing-cookbook 🙂

Oh and also this:

You can match your whole kitchen 😅
