Measuring Vinyl

If you have a strange shapped room or lots of corners it's hard to measure and mark your vinyl so it fits perfectly.  Even if your room is square you will probably find out that it is not perfectly square.

I used contractors masking paper to make a templet.  It's not very expensive.  You can buy it in the paint department in different widths.  Roll it out on your floor and tape the seams together.  This makes a perfect pattern that you can transfer to your vinyl with a marker so you can cut it out.  Works everytime.

No need to waste the paper once you have finished with it.  Use as a drop cloth or cut it into strips to mask off windows or doors when you paint.
