The art of stamping has been improving the look of people's homes for hundreds and even thousands of years. Stamping allows you to create a consistent design over a big area. Whether you use the very same colors to create an identical repeating image, or whether you use a dissimilar color each time, your pattern will look cohesive if you use a stamp.
Stamps can be made from many materials, including natural latex, wood, and potatoes.
The easiest do-it-yourself stamp is made from a potato, cut open to expose a flat surface. After drawing the design on the flat surface of the potato, use a craft knife to cut away any area you do not want to display up in your image. The remaining material should form the shape of your flat image of choice. Dab that surface in ink or paint, and you have a stamp that is reusable and biodegradable.
Now you are ready to personalize your interior decor. Stamps make good border designs on floors, along the perimeter of ceilings, the backs of chairs, the perimeter of tables, the tops of walls, and fabric for curtains, bedspreads, pillow covers, furniture slip covers, and anyplace you'd like to create beautiful designs. If you use the very same stamps on the furniture, curtains, bedspread, the tops of the walls, and the perimeter of the floor, you create harmonious room decor.
