Iron on the Heat N Bond Lite. I iron a large section at a time. The interfacing isn't expensive and it is much easier to cut out the patten with the backing making it a little stiffer.

Because I chose a bold pattern that I wanted replicated on the wall, I just cut out the flowers. If you are creating your own pattern, trace it onto the backer in reverse and cut it out.

This is the back of the flower. The backer paper is still on the cut outs.

Take your iron and following the instructions for your fabric and the Heat N Bond, iron your fabric to the wall! Make sure to pellet off backer first!

Disclaimer: if you iron the wall, you will knock off the top bumpy texture. I don't mind this, and if you just iron the fabric, this doesn't happen!

Position more fabric and keep ironing. If you don't like the way it looks, it is a little forgiving and you can peel it off the wall and move it. Just do it quickly and not more than once.

Still going. The great part of this is that if you get tired or run out of time, you just turn off the iron and come back later!

And the finished project! I just love the way the bold pattern stands out on the wall. And when we get tired of it, we just have to peel it off! No repainting and no mess!
