How can I use regular textured wall paper as flooring?
Found some really nice wall paper that is wood grain and want to know if I do it the same way as paper bag flooring, without the tearing of course? If I seal it 8-10 times will it be just as good as the brown paper bag floor when I'm done?

Here's 2 articles Carlena that tell you how to use wallpaper on your floor! It seems that if you get enough poly over the wallpaper it should work! As far as how long it will last depends on the traffic the floor will get!

I'm not certain that it would hold up very well on the floor. But if it's at least as thick as the paper bag floors and you put the necessary coats of poly on it then I don't know why it wouldn't work. Probably not a long term solution but you never know. If you do it I'd love to see how it turns out.
