I have many obsessions and I'll be the first to admit that some of them are WEIRD. My current obsession happens to be Con-tact paper. I've been on a a kick lately, covering anything and everything with it.
It all started when I spotted this black and white shelf liner at Target. I didn't have plans to redo any drawers or cabinets in the kitchen, I just knew I wanted it because it was pretty.
I did use it to re-line the insides of my cabinets.
My kitchen isn't very big, so I've always picky about what I leave on the counter tops. I use these two cleaners so many times a day it was just more convenient for me to leave them out. But I couldn't stand that they stuck out like a sore thumb.
So yes, I did cover my disinfecting wipes and glass cleaner with Con-tact paper just to match my kitchen.
And, YES I did spray paint the blue cover from the spray cleaner black so it would match too. (I told you my obsessions were weird) I keep the black cover and just reuse it on the new can. I do have to recover it every time I replace it, but it's worth it to me. (It's the OCD in me) As for the wipes, I did buy the Target Up & Up brand only because the top was white, I refill it with what ever is on sale, Lysol or Clorox.
But it doesn't stop there. When I went to take a picture of the corner in my kitchen to show how everything matched, I realized something wasn't right.
Ok, that's better. (Sorry for the bad shot and glare) It's all nice, neat and matchy-matchy, just how I like it!
I also used the Con-tact paper to cover some recycled soup cans, that I used as a utensil holder.
(It was Christmas time when I did this project. I was planning on gluing the snowflakes to each can for decoration, but decided not to after I was done)
See Con-tact paper isn't just for lining your shelves. You can use it to cover just about anything! I did! Just so you know I didn't get paid by Con-tact or anyone else for writing this post. I do love it, use it and am happy to share my obsession with all of you!
You are too funny! Looks so good. I would have never thought to do that!
