These are five, wonderfully illustrated images of a man hanging wallpaper. I created these digital household downloads from a 1907, wallpaper sample catalog. In each of the antique illustrations the proper way to hang wallpaper is shown in detail. I love how a couple of the illustrations show the man standing on handmade platforms made with planks of wood and wood crates of soap. How wonderful! Antique wallpaper was certainly fancy, frilly, and colorful. Any of these household images would be great in scrapbooking a home renovation project.
