Searched everywhere for unpasted wallpaper to line my dresser drawers with no luck except one site on the internet; they were a bit pricey. Then on a 'girls day out' with a friend in which we hit a couple of Goodwill, etc. stores, on the way to the checkout, I chanced to look down at a lower shelf, only to find 3 partial roles of unpasted wallpaper in exactly the pattern I really wanted!

Thanks to all who provided the tips and got me searching for what I eventually found. What a great feeling!

Thanks again for your help - it is very much appreciated. Checked out the ones on ebay, also the idea of not removing the backing on contact paper is a good option. People on this site are so helpful!

You could always use the 'contact' paper without removing the backing---that is usually what I do, as it is difficult to find wallpaper that isn't expensive in a rural area. There is cheap 'contact' type paper at all of our dollar stores. I keep it down in the drawers by putting the cut to fit pieces between the mattress and box springs for a few days.

If you are a thrift store frequenter like I am, you may find some there. I have, on occasion, found unopened wallpaper rolls. I always buy the unpasted ones for drawer paper too. Especially since I had the horror story with contact paper. You can read my post on this website about "how to get Contact paper off wood". Hope this helps. Good luck.

There are 2 unpasted double rolls on sale at eBay. The 'buy it now' price is $19.99 with free shipping in the U.S.
