In case you missed the debacle, the unique wallpaper we put in (a tiny candy ticking stripe) was so fragile that it was simply ripped or marked up. It doesn’t even exist anymore (it was a nasty product, y’all). So, after it bought extraordinarily broken from a photograph shoot, I made a decision to simply re-wallpaper all the factor with a way more sturdy paper that’s even higher. The unique stripe was so tiny you couldn’t see it on digicam, whereas that is wider (however nonetheless refined).

I like strolling up these stairs to the gorgeous window on prime, and I wished to maintain it mild and ethereal. However principally so I might plaster it with household images.


It additionally works so nicely with the prevailing wallpaper in the lavatory and the laundry closet. It provides a lot despite the fact that it’s so refined.

I’ve been on the lookout for an enormous vertical piece of artwork (or two) for that tall wall since we moved in. It’s what’s preserving me from hanging the household wall. However I ought to most likely simply go for it.
Outdated Wallpaper:


See? You’ll be able to barely see the wallpaper (whoops, that was not the only option, though it was actually fairly in particular person). Additionally, I do know, I do know… I want to color the classic steel register. ARCIFORM was like “preserve it authentic!” and on the time I completely agreed, however I want it had been brass or one thing prettier (or white so it will simply disappear extra). As a result of you understand, I hate that it’s distracting from my stunning Pop-a-Shot…or perhaps the black ties it in and makes it cohesive (LOL).
New Wallpaper:


It’s refined, and but this stripe has a lot extra impression. I LOVE IT.
Portray Swap!!


Birdie (my 10-year-old daughter) is altering her room, as you understand, and now not wished that epic colourful portray (not in a bratty means, simply in a “it’s not going to go” kinda means). FINE BY ME!! I’m obsessive about that portray, which is classic and bought from an area supplier, Deb Zsori (@fabiusgrange), painted by an 80s Portland artist.

I’m reasonably obsessive about it right here…with that chair (classic) and that Bzippy vase. The size of the artwork is big, however excellent, and the way in which that the sunshine hits it (which is tender) brings out the colours, whereas numerous items we put there felt flat there. After all, it makes me need to add much more coloration in the lounge. Problem accepted:)

God, I’m simply such a stylist at coronary heart!! Typically I would like neutrals with hits of greens and blacks, however that’s it, and different occasions give me allllll the colour and whimsy. I did begin layering in just a few extra colourful items in right here, which I’ll present you subsequent week (some are working, some are NOT).

One other field checked. That busted and ripped up wallpaper was driving me nuts, and this new paper (by Schumacher) is so excellent. And with the epic portray? I’m so proud of how this seems to be, each single time I stroll previous it. Now, onto portray the higher touchdown ground (the identical blue as the ground, then with a enjoyable border? Keep tuned…
