How To Use Piano Sheet Music Creatively

By Amy Clark


There are so many ways that items can be repurposed and turned into something new. Piano sheet music can be used in a multitude of ways to decorate a space or bring an item to life again. Many people use this type of decor when going with a shabby chic theme, which touches on soft, vintage appeal.

You could get an old piece of furniture, like a table, and repurpose it using sheet music to create something entirely different. Transfer the paper to the table using Mod Podge, which is called decoupage. This works great for side tables or sideboards that can be accent pieces.

You could further distress the piece to really get the right feeling of shabby chic and vintage. You could also purchase an antiquing stain, which is easily found at any hardware. The beauty of staining is that it will randomly soak into parts of the paper, create aged spots that have a wonderful effect.

When it's Christmas, there are so many things you can do with sheet music, but carol sheet music makes it even more festive. You can make a paper wreath by rolling sheets into cones, starting at the corner. Snip off the ends of some cones to make different sizes for various layers. Get a circular base or cut one out of cardboard and begin gluing each cone around the edge of the circle.

Go around the edge of the circle and glue down the cones side by side until the base has disappear. It looks very much like a star burst. Use a sparkly decoration in the center to finish off the wreath or even tie a fabric bow in a deep red hue to match the season. Create even more drama by aging the pages before you begin, which can be done by "baking" the paper, or by tea staining or a watered down stain wash.

Music paper can also be used to create cute little ornaments, again particularly effective during the festive season. Create papier mache ornaments for the tree in different shapes and sizes, such as little boxes wrapped in ribbon like gifts or unique baubles decorated with scroll patterns in glitter. These are also very fun for children to get involved with and help make.

Make gifts out of this kind of paper that people will be able to use as well as enjoy visually. One example is to make dining room place mats using larger sheets of paper printed with music. It's a great gift for a wedding or anniversary couple and works well in a properly themed environment. Place mats out of music paper can even be used in a wedding as part of the decor. Use the couple's song for an extra touch.

You can add a personal touch to any wedding by collecting the music of the couple's top songs together. Wrap the paper around mason jars that have candles in them. Line the walkway for the bride with the mason jars or use them on the tables with the centerpieces. In fact, this type of accent works great throughout the venue as part of the general decor when placed strategically.
