1. With a utility or craft knife, just cut a piece of wallpaper from the leftovers that have been saved from your project.
2. Place the piece you just cut over an area torn when trying to match a wallpaper pattern.
3. Once the design is matched, make sure it is stored securely in place. Blue security ribbon works great for this.
