Yesterday’s News – A Cool Wallcovering Design

Very much like grasscloth, this cool wallpaper is called “yesterday’s news” because it’s made from old newspapers and magazine pages, cut into strips and sewn onto a paper backing. What an innovative way to recycle!

Like grasscloth, though, it panels, or shades, from strip to strip. In the first photo, three strips and two seams are visible. But the first seam, on the far left, is not too noticeable. The seam on the right is quite noticeable, due to the difference in color between the strip on the left and the strip on the right.

This is not a defect; that is just how it is, if you choose grasscloth or this strips-of-magazine-pages material.
