taken from book Flea Market StyleThis wall has been decorated using swatches of vintage wallpaper. Some time ago I purchased an old sample wallpaper book (Ebay) from 1971. It has the most beautiful wallpaper swatches inside. So now that I have been inspired - I am going to work this week to transform something in my house. Watch out walls and doors, I am coming to find you!
I love that book! I cannot wait to see what you do Simone. I am dying to do a feature wall in our bedrooms of wallpaper but my partner is not keen. I am still trying to talk him around to it! Have you seen the Lizzie Allen whimsical British wallpaper? I love that too! And Catherine Martin has done some lovely wallpapers for Porter. xx
ReplyDeletefantastic - can't wait to see!
ReplyDeleteoh, please come to my house my doors and wall are hungry for some lovely wallpapers!
ReplyDeletehave a great wednesday!

Vintage wallpaper is all the go at the moment. Have you had a look at Allison (Lark) & Pauls house in Daylesford in the latest Australian Country Style? One of their boys bedrooms features a lovely patchwork wallpaper wall xo

You are so creative!!! Can't wait to see what you do :)
ReplyDeleteThis image is beautiful, especially that wardrobe!
This patchwork effect is so pretty. Well done finding a wallpaper book with beautiful samples - all the ones I have found lately have been pretty ordinary. Enjoy transforming those walls and doors!

This is beautiful! It's so colorful and fun, and right up my alley. My home better watch out as well!
ReplyDeleteA patchwork wall... what fun. I'd love to do a pale version.
ReplyDeleteI thought of you out while out shopping a few days ago, found some precious candy colored striped washcloths. I started to say "Simone would love these", then realized Handsome would say "Who's Simone?"

ReplyDeleteThat picture is just gorgeous but I don't know if I'd be brave enough to do that in my own house.
ReplyDeleteI'm stopping by your blog for the first time (your comment about the rain on "a beach cottage" made me come over) and I love it. I love your cushion stack, I love your fabric pencils, I love your plate rack. Fantastic.
Scrumptious! Waiting to see your interpretation will be torture. Will there be teasers?
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! It looks like the perfect wallcovering for a crafts room. It would help me with my inspiration!
ReplyDeleteThis is a fun idea. I would like to use in concept in a large framed art piece. Very fun.
ReplyDeleteoooh - it will be AWESOME! go GO, girl!
