You can use various materials for this decor.
Paper
The main and most frequently used material for making wallpaper applications is paper. Despite its simplicity, with the proper skill and creative approach, a simple white sheet can be decorated, cut out all kinds of shapes and ornaments from it.
Important! Very often experienced designers when creating applications use paper of several colors or textures at once for the manufacture of individual segments of the composition.
The main advantage of paper is that it is easy to cut and does not cause problems when pasting both on a glossy and matte finish. Paper crafts can be glued to the wall surface using conventional PVA glue, both close to the base and using a special foot.
Cardboard
If the paper does not suit you because of its fragility, then you can use cardboard. Thanks to him, the finished ornament or pattern will gain a certain density and rigidity. Unlike paper, cardboard is poorly cut, and in order to bend it, you will have to make physical effort. Nevertheless, it keeps its shape much better, and the risk of falling off of the application element due to a sharp airflow when opening the door or windows is minimized.
Fabrics and wallpapers
An equally interesting option is the application of shreds of fabric or old wallpaper paintings. Such an exposition will be much more reliable than paper or cardboard, but it will also become a bright highlight of the entire room.
Important! Pay your attention to the fact that you do not have to spend money on fabric applications or from wallpaper paintings. You just need to look into the closet and look for something interesting there!
Film
