"When one renter wanted to do something about the ugly fridge sitting in the middle of her kitchen, she decided to turn it into something "so beautiful" using peel-and-stick contact paper. "The problem with this fridge is that it stands out like a sore thumb," the DIYer, Georgia Raddon, said in a voiceover in a recent TikTok video. "So I wanted to do something cute with it.""
"After cleaning the fridge with a vinegar solution to ensure it was squeaky clean, Raddon began the process of covering the entire thing with mirrored peel-and-stick paper from Amazon. She notes she specifically shopped for a mirrored look for this project, not a duller (and more common) stainless steel finish. Raddon measured her fridge to find out how much she would need, and bought two rolls of the 24-inch-wide contact paper and one 12-inch-by-80-inch-roll just in case she needed to correct mistakes."
A renter transformed an unattractive, standard-issue apartment refrigerator into a mirrored "disco fridge" using peel-and-stick mirrored contact paper. The fridge was wiped with a vinegar solution before covering. Measurements determined required material, leading to purchase of two 24-inch-wide rolls and an extra 12-by-80-inch roll. A dish towel smoothed air bubbles without fingerprints, and edges were trimmed with a utility knife and scissors. Heat from a crafting heat gun helped wrap paper tightly around corners. After removing the protective plastic coating, the appliance became a three-sided full-length mirror that improves aesthetics and functions in a small space.
