Dream Rooms: Printed

{ Pinterest/Unknown Original Source } { Home Edit }

Even though these wall (and floor!) prints are quite busy, the neutral color scheme in both allows them to be a bit less noticeable, so that you can layer the room in additional ways without it being too much.

Right now Anthropologie has a few great wallpapers that would help to create this kind of a look brilliantly: Painted Tulip Wallpaper, Block Begonia Wallpaper, and Watercolor Peony Wallpaper.

Room to Outfit (literally)

Today I wore my new Charlotte Taylor moss green snail print blouse with my chunky stone necklace, both from Anthropologie. I stopped while we were in Cleveland, and it's just so difficult to leave that store without a little something. I mean, everything is wonderful in that place. I was particularly excited about this blouse, as it's the exact same print that I'd seen on wallpaper from their online site. Though I really wanted it, I couldn't think of place in our house for snail wallpaper, but a blouse? That's a whole different story!



The blouse is no longer available online, but you can still find the wallpaper here.

{ From Greenwich with Love }

I adore wallpaper. Especially busy wallpaper. Especially this busy wallpaper. There are trees, and flowers, and birds, and ponds, and I think even some happy little fish. I can see this working in just about any room, save for maybe a kitchen.

The only thing is that you'd be stuck choosing furniture + accessories in solid colors -- unless you were looking to give your guests seizures, that is.

Ostrich

I can't stop myself from being obsessed with wallpaper of all kinds. I want to have about 10 houses so that I can use all of the different wallpapers that I'm in love with. My newest wallpaper crush is...



Ostriches!! With their cute little heads stuck in the sand! I kind of desperately want to use this paper somewhere, but I'd have to figure a way to make it go with the rest of the house. You can find the Ostrich wallpaper here. If you want to see even more totally wonderful wallpaper, check out this recent post at The Cottage Cheese.

Wallpaper

Last week, thanks so a crazy cool decorating post by Sara, I came across perhaps the coolest wallpaper site ever: Wallpaper from the 70s.

They have so many patterns that I'm smitten with, but since they're located in Germany, I wanted to look at some samples before ordering a few roles. While I don't know about boldly patterned wallpaper all over the house, I do know that I want to have one of the walls in my studio covered in a pretty paper.

First of all, these sample arrived fast...like, ridiculously fast. I ordered last Wednesday, and they were here (from Germany) today. Way to go for excellent customer service!




I'm really happy that I ordered samples, because some of the prints are a lot larger than I would have expected. While I like all of them, I'm leaning toward one of these two:



The gray floral was a favorite to begin with, and these are the two that go best with my newly decided upon color scheme.

But who knows, I'll probably end up changing my mind a dozen times before settling! I am starting to like that other black and white floral the more that I look at it...!
