To use these designs download the pdf (acrobat reader) file for the country edgings, or the black striped wallpaper or green striped wallpaper.

If you want a softer background color than white, print the designs on off white paper which will soften the colors.

To apply wallpaper to your dollhouse walls you can print the designs on heavy weight paper, or print them on regular printer and glue them to cardstock (file folders) then mount them to the walls with double sided tape. This method is preferred by people who use tape wire, as the heavier weight of the photo paper or cardstock covers the bumps on the wall created by the tape wire.

If you wish to use the edgings to mimic tile in a kitchen, print the edging designs on gloss or semi gloss photo paper, then emboss grout lines between the squares or designs with a rounded toothpick or a paper embossing tool.
