{design & decor} is this your final answer? (i sure hope so)

May 26, 2009

So a few months back, I had settled on a wallpaper I found via design*sponge used by the lovely and talented Barb Blair of knack studios.  I was hunting for a neutral-ish wallpaper for our totally ’60s yellow tiled guest bathroom that needed some lovin’.  When I saw Barb’s hallway, I knew I had found [...]

{design & decor} and the hunt continues…

April 1, 2009

One of my new Twitter friends owns an online wallpaper and fabric site, fabricsandpapers.com (in the UK), which I’ve spent a good bit of time browsing since I got the call that my wallpaper pick was discontinued (boo, hiss).  What a great find!  The selections are well-edited, kinda traditional but still very hip, and relatively [...]

{design & decor} wallpaper update: say it ain't so…

March 30, 2009

Remember how I was so excited just 2 days ago that I had ordered my wallpaper and that I’d only have to wait 7-10 days to see it gracing my guest bathroom walls?!  Well, I just got a call from the wallpaper store and they informed me that the paper is DISCONTINUED! NOOOOO!  They said [...]

{design & decor} bathroom wallpaper options 1-4, hmmm…

March 12, 2009

I’m not a good decision maker.  That’s a fact.  There are just so many OPTIONS out there!  Once I make my mind up on one thing, I find something else that might be more perfect.  It’s debilitating sometimes! Take my current predicament, for example: what to do with the walls of our guest bathroom.  The [...]

{design & decor} more brocade wallpaper

October 23, 2008

I keep finding more and more brocade (and damask) wallpapers that I love…and now I want to wallpaper my whole house!!! Here’s a fun fact: the name “brocade” has the same root word as “broccoli” (which kind of explains the shapes – they kind of look like broccoli crowns to me!), and the Italian word [...]

{design & decor} guest room progress…

October 19, 2008

Does your guest room become the dumping ground for stuff you just don’t know where to put?  That describes our guest room to a “T”.  Unfortunately my guest room also doubles as my office, so let’s just say that my organization and productivity has been pretty poor the last few months as the piles of [...]

{mood boards} baby sister's on the way!

September 16, 2008

One of my goodgoodgood friends from college is 6 weeks away from Baby #2 – and the nursery has yet to be decorated!  Her husband is none too excited to paint, and she is stymied trying to pick a color scheme… Roommates to the rescue!  For her baby shower, since she has plenty of baby [...]

{design & decor} oh mr. darcy!

September 5, 2008

DARCY! The name of Graham & Brown‘s new wallpaper over at Design Public made me want to revisit my favorite book characters, Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy in Pride & Prejudice.  And with fall around the corner, I envision myself wrapped up in a quilt on my couch, drinking hot cider, and losing myself in [...]

{design & decor} brocade wallpaper

March 20, 2008

I (and the rest of the design world, it seems) am currently quite obsessed with brocade wallpaper. I’ve actually been seeing this in a lot of magazines and catalogs lately…could wallpaper be staging a comeback?!  I reallyreallyreally want to hang Brocade Home’s espresso lattice flocked foil wallpaper in my powder room to make it like “a [...]
