I Turned My Grandma’s Kitchen Wallpaper Into A Spring Dress To Preserve Priceless Childhood Memories

ADVERTISEMENT

Growing up I always thought this flowered wallpaper from my grandmother’s kitchen would make a nice spring dress…

So when that kitchen was remodeled recently for the sale of the house, I had a chance to make that fantasy a reality! It was a great way to say goodbye to a house full of so many childhood memories.

Really beautiful! Perhaps you should scan the wallpaper and have it printed on fabric as well, for some softer garments? ;)

You could have fabric made for you at Spoonflower or something... It looks amazing, btw! Totally my style! I actually have a similar pattern on a dress that I made, which my husband jokingly refers to as my "great aunt curtains" dress...

Yes! I think I will. Thanks! That's so funny. I actually added my aunt's curtains to my bridesmaids dresses awhile back xD
