The lazy days of vacation makes me miss the days of college when your biggest worries were if you were going to find a seat in the library during finals and if professor so and so was going to give you an extension on your paper. Therefore, I was very excited when my former Northwestern roommate, Z, asked me about my framed wrapping paper art in my apartment she had seen on Frugal Finds (she unfortunately lives all the way in Minneapolis so has never seen my NYC apartment in person). She said that she had been admiring my art for a while and was hoping for some ideas for the same DIY project in her green and turquoise bedroom. Of course, I was happy to steer her in the right direction, and figured why not just make a post of it? This one's for you, Z!
