This is NOT Marble Nor Is it Marble Contact Paper…Something Even Better And She Used It To Create A Focal Point in the Livingroom!

Did you ever consider taking a PHOTOGRAPH of marble and then blowing it up?

Here is what whitebuffalostylingco says about it:

Yes, that is a photo of marble blown up at Staples for $3.99 a sheet.  It’s 3′ x 4′.  You can find great photos of marble with all different patterns on any stock photo site.  I cropped mine into the exact size panels (width of 12″) that I wanted, though I don’t think you’d have to do that.

Once you get that done, you can use spray adhesive and MDF to create any number of items.

These guys created three-part, wooden and hinged frame that would make the perfect fire screen for their faux fireplace.  (NOT good for a real fireplace, folks!)

They spray-painted all the wood gold and the finished product is just so luxe and beautiful!

Closer view:

Seriously, that’s so well done.

What is your secret to getting the beautiful look of marble without spending big bucks?
