Hi all, I am in the process of completely decorating my front room and a very strange idea came over me.... This might be completely impractical and useless but any advice would be welcome.

Is it possible to stick Turkey Foil (the stuff you put in the oven) on the walls before you put wallpaper on top in order to provide insulation for an exterior facing wall? I know you can put this stuff behind radiators to deflect heat. I have stuck a small bit of this Turkey Foil on the wall just to see if it would stick and it does, perfectly ! Is this a crazy idea? :?

Thanks in advance
