Sample packs are available for just these new colors as well as individual samples. We hung the Aquamarine in the "Kids' Corner" at our store, and it's beautiful! Now we can use this stuff in the kids room, too! Don't bother patching up the little dings and scrapes here and there...you can just cover 'em up...I love it! Check it out...

Several months ago, I had someone email me asking about switchplate and outlet covers. She loved using the Paper Illusions, but hated covering the outlet covers...she had a gazillion in her kitchen. She suggested we offer something like that at Wallpaper Illusions, so now we do!

These covers are handcrafted by us using the PaperIllusion® paper...they are not made by the makers of PaperIllusion®. However, they are high quality products...you will not be disappointed, I promise. We use a spray adhesive to securely mount the paper on the plate/cover. Then, we wrap the edges and hot glue them on the back. The holes are cut out using a sharp blade, leaving a very neat appearance. The plates/covers are jumbo size.

Currently we are making single and double switchplates available along with outlet covers. The single switchplate and outlet covers are provided in sets to save on shipping costs. Each plate/cover is available in every current color. They are available for purchase at http://www.wallpaperillusions.com/outlet-covers.html.

If you have any suggestions on ways we can add convenience to your PaperIllusion experience, tell us about it in the Paper It Fun! Forum at Product Development. We aim to serve you!

A discussion forum from the makers of PaperIllusion® and other popular wallcoverings.

NOTE: We have noticed there has been a lack of response at this discussion board...the company experienced some employment restructuring late last fall, and I'm afraid this forum has been neglected. If you are unable to get an answer to your question here, and would specifically like an answer from the manufacturer/maker, email me, and I will contact our Sales Rep to get a response. Be sure to mention you specifically want a reply from Village. Thanks.
