Monday already? Weekends go too fast! This was a good one, though. We told the kids that we are taking them to Disney World! The big announcement turned out to be more exciting for us than for the kids, because they have no concept of what Disney World is all about. I made these cupcakes for the occasion. I really need to work on my cupcake skills… icing is so tricky… no matter what I try, it seems to get everywhere! Oh well… they’re still pretty cute:
Anyways… on to the Monday Inspiration. I’m searching for the perfect wallpaper for my Mom & Dad’s front entry. We’re thinking something with a touch of grey or silver. Here are some ideas so far:
I’ve always liked Darcy through Graham & Brown:
Check out how gorgeous it is in this room by Vanessa De Vargas:
I don’t think you could go wrong with that one.
Then I found this one from The Wallpaper Company, which you can order through Home Depot.
I’m often drawn to trellis-type patterns. However, we used Braemore Fioretto fabric for the drapes, and I don’t want to overdo it. How much is too much trellis??? Here’s what the drapes look like (this is not my Mom & Dad’s house, but is the same fabric!)
I’m also drawn to more organic branchy designs, so I immediately thought of these from Ferm Living:
The first is Family Tree in silver, and the second is Forest Flower in silver. I also love Wildflower in bronze, but I’m not sure that the bronze would work:
Thoughts anyone?
Have a great Monday!
Ahhhh wallpaper!
ReplyDeleteI think that if the trellis drapery isn't too close to the foyer, then the lovely trellis paper from The Wallpaper Company would be perfect... the colour & "feel" of the paper is a great compliment to the drapery :-)

I think either of the Fern Living papers would be awesome. I thought I just saw something yesterday about one or both of those papers being discontinued. Might want to pop over and check it out. Can't wait to hear which paper you decide to go with.
ReplyDeleteyou know me, I can give you no advice, but I WANT one of those organic branchy designs in my condo when I move back in. Also, I knew you guys wanted to take the boys to Disney but didn't know when. When are you going? Super excited for all of you :)
ReplyDeleteYay for Disney! And I just love all the options for wallpaper...do you watch "Once upon a time"??? The Evil Queen's office has the most spectacular "forest inspired" wallpaper ever...
