It's not always easy to find affordable wallpaper that you love. That's why Rebecca Gardom is making her own.

Gardom is an artist and owner of jewelry company This Material Culture, and told Mashable that she decided to create her own wallpaper because she loves "abstract style."

To create the custom wallpaper, Gardom draws freehand with pens and felt tips, and then colors in the outline.

"My hubby [has] done loads of the colouring, and so has everyone who's seen it," she said.

Gardom and her husband are hoping to buy a home soon and are thrilled to not be spending money on wallpaper. "Beautiful wallpaper is really expensive," she explained.

"I think it's going to be for our bedroom behind the bed," she said. "But because we've not moved yet, I'm going to wait and see."

This is a case of DIY gone very, very right.
