Wallpapers of the week...

Today, I am making the track down to Brooklyn (my first time) to do a little shopping with one of my most favorite clients. Our first mission...wallpaper. We are basically wallpapering her entire apartment, which is so exciting, especially for this decorista. I think we are going to convince her husband that a python wallpaper bathroom would be killer! yay! Anyway...today my mind is entirely focused and obsessing over wallpaper and I wanted to share a few I love...


I think my most favorite are neutral wallpapers and grey-ish wallpapers, ones with simple patterns. I especially love metallic wallpapers. The more natural looking, the more I love it. But never underestimate the power of color and dramatic wallpaper... its amazing too.

I am such a fan of wallpaper, all of it! Love the sample you've shown. Python wallpaper in a bathroom would be fabulous...just be certain there is proper ventilation if it's a bath with a shower. Will you show your finished project?

Python wallpapering? Oh yes! I bet you have seen Lenny Kravitz Wallpaper line, Tropicalismo. Rio Cocodrilo is a goldened reptile motif so cute. Good luck with your wallpaper hunt! Xo

I love wallpaper! If you're worried that you'll tire of it, attach the wallpaper to boards and connect with hinges to make your own "screen". It can be placed behind a headboard or in a corner to soften a room's edges. You can enjoy the pattern without the commitment! Otherwise, I agree with you...stick to neutrals.

I have yet to experiment with wallpaper but I really want to! At least an accent wall to start. These are all pretty and feel right in their given space..love to see what you find!

Love all these examples. I'm also a big fan of grasscloth (in fun colors or even metallics!) and classic chinoiserie prints. I've got two rolls of some truly awesome grey and metallic paper that I'm going to use to paper my WC....when I get around to it, that is! :/

The 7th photo is AMAZING! I love love love the wallpaper, it really pops and catches your eye! The table though, oh my god. I'm obsessed with huge wooden tabletops with gorgeously carved "legs". That will for sure be my most exciting purchase once I have my own place :)

I am loving the first room as well!! It's actually from my old apartment. It was one of the first projects I designed! If you like that you should check out my website and my blog to see other rooms I have wallpapered!. I covered a whole room in "cloth" morrocan fabric and grasscloth...It was gorgeous.
