Try It Tuesday: Easy Zebra Print Switchplate


Today is my daughter's birthday. Happy Birthday my sweet, smart and beautiful daughter! This is one of the projects I did for her partial room makeover. I had decided she was getting older and needed to be able to do her hair in her room, so I made a vanity for her (that post will come later) and chair and did a little redecorating using zebra print items, which is obviously a favorite of hers. It has all been coming together nicely. Yesterday, I made her this switch plate.

It's super simple. You just need a white switchplate (you make already have one on the wall) which cost under 50 cents at a hardware store and a black sharpie. Just draw on your print and color in. It's that simple. Now for very cheap I have pop of zebra on the wall.

She's probably more than excited to be doing her own hair in her newly decorated room with her own vanity! Good job mom!

What a cool idea. I could see other designs I could make like polka dots.

Wow ... so simple, yet so chic. I wouldn't use a Zebra pattern, but I'm thinking Minnie Mouse :) he he

Great idea! My daughter and I love Zebra print and leopard print. Now we can get it for less.
