Man uses old newspapers to decorate his apartment
Meanwhile, calabargistblog.com.ng previously reported that a man had used old newspapers to decorate his apartment.
Before redesigning the room, he showed that the apartment had a cracked wall. He said he spent N3,500 on the whole decor.
After getting newspapers for free, he used close to eight hours in a video to paste each spread on the wall. When he was done, the look of the room was terrific. Many people in his comment section said he deserved more praise for turning the space around with little money.
