Steps

  1. Clear everything movable from the room.
  2. Tape together enough paper to nearly cover the floor area. You'll want an inch or two all around - it doesn't have to be even. Then tape the paper to the floor to hold it steady.
  3. Using a wide straight-edge, go all the way around the room laying the straight-edge against the wall and making a line on the other side of the straight-edge on your paper.
  4. Carefully pick up the paper and lay it on your vinyl, matching any pattern to the most important view of the floor.
  5. Using the lines you drew, place the straight edge again and this time make your lines on the outside of the straight-edge. This will duplicate the margins of the room.
  6. Carefully cut your vinyl with a hooked flooring blade in a utility knife.

Tips

  • Be sure the paper stays put when you measure and cut.
  • If you need to cut a circle like the drain, look to the kitchen for bowls or old medicine containers.
