I would like to recreate a design I saw in a store at a local mall. At a Lancome store there is a wall covered with pink rosebuds, like a wallpaper made of roses. I would like to cover a small wall in my bathroom in a similar fashion. Maybe with silk roses? Any idea of how I can recreate this? Where to purchase the flowers and how to apply to the wall so that they don't fall off? Any creative ideas welcome!At a Lancome store, there is a wall covered with rosebuds. Any idea how I could recreate this effect at home?
I would reccomend using silk flowers from any craft store. Start buying now and use those cupons because those flowers are not cheap. (I used to work at a Michaels, I know)Then depending on the room you are doing this in use either hot glue or E-600. Either one is fine but the E-6000 is made to hold pretty much anything to anything and doesn't require a cord or heat to use. Just be sure to wear a mask and open some windows when using it.
As was stated before, this will be a major repair to take down so be sure you love it before you do it. Good Luck!At a Lancome store, there is a wall covered with rosebuds. Any idea how I could recreate this effect at home?
well you could take a pix of a bunch of roses and take that to a photocopy store and have them print off a bunch on thick paper then paste them like wallpaper instead of hotglueing bizilions of roses to your walls.
I think one of the first episodes I ever watched of a program called trading spaces was one in which the designer had huge trashbags full of silk flowers which they proceeded to hot glue to the wall until the entire thing was covered. I think this is the same thing you were asking about. Just remember when you try to remove these from the wall later, you are going to pull off the paint, paper down to the actual sheetrock and this is going to create a major repair job.
