Open storage in any room can be both practical and dazzling fun. Another sassy idea is to install wallpaper on the back of a wall-mounted storage unit or a closed back piece of furniture suitable for presentation of personal items. This concept allows for an unlimited array of design motifs and color combinations that will become a hip background for favorite items.
