Pasting Back On What Flaked Off

This silver cork wallpaper is stiff and thick, and prone to flaking off the surface. Here you see where a bit of silver has come off, revealing the brown backing. It’s really part of “the look,” but I didn’t like it. So I cut a tiny fill-in piece from some scrap material, adhered it with clear silicone caulk, and – voilà! Invisible!
