Jun 09, 2021
The materials you will need for this are plastic spatulas. I have different sizes, a razor or scissors, contact paper and oven liners. I'll explain what I use oven liners for later in the video. I started by cleaning the refrigerator with Windex to remove all the dust and dirt. I did this with all my

appliances

. By the way, I took the contact paper and started sticking it to my refrigerator, since the video above shows me going down the sides with the contact paper because you can see at a better angle this way. I'm pulling the non-sticky

part

of the contact paper off the roll as I go.

This was easier for me and helped me control where I was placing the contact paper. I'm using the spatula to remove all the air bubbles, as you can see, I continue this until it covers the entire side of the refrigerator. With this sticky paper you can easily lift it up and stick it back on if you make a mistake, which I liked. Because this was the first time I did this and I definitely made mistakes. Now I'm using the utility knife to cut off the excess paper from the sides and then I'll fold the rest of the paper as you can see.

Look, it turned out so well. I'm taking the same stainless steel I used for the refrigerator doors and applying it to the bottom pan of the stove.
Oh, I also applied the stainless steel contact paper to the vent area on the stove top, it came out really good. The last thing I did was apply the stainless steel contact paper to the front of my dishwasher. I use the exact same technique as I did before, I just had to play with it a little more to get the air bubbles out, as you can see. Oh, I couldn't tape the corners for some reason, so you see me apply a small piece of tape to the bottom. I also did this on the refrigerator in certain corners that I couldn't glue.
This came out really, really good, I love how it looks. This was my first time using contact paper, so it wasn't that easy. I'm not going to lie to you, but once I learned it I was able to finish it and I love how it looks. Who knew you can buy stainless steel contact paper? Well, who knew?
