Gift wrap paper wall

I just finished wrapping my daughter's wall with zebra striped gift wrapping paper, it was easy and cost $8.
Her walls were purple but she wanted to make one wall pop. I didn't want to paint. So I chose the next best thing. 

The ceilings are high so I had to stand on the bed to reach the corners. The wrapping paper was about 18 inches wide. I bought 3 rolls for $4.50 at Michaels and used my store wide 25% discount. My assistant handed me only the white and yellow map pins. I liked the round balls on the end of these rather than the traditional square ends. $3.99 for a box at Michaels. 

I ended up using most of the three rolls and had to fold down some pieces and use strips in other places to get around the window. 
It all ended up looking pretty good, my other girl wants me to do hers now but we need to fund the right aqua blue chevron paper. Using a solid paper could work but I think the patterns hide the sections better.
