Well as expected everyone wants to know about that stain color....and so would I....ha ha.
The truth is a faux painter did it and of course he is not going to share with me because then I would not need him right? Just like designers have their sources so do people who have a trade....like being able to mix and put a beautiful finish on raw wood.....
The only thing I can tell you is that it was applied on white oak.
On to things I can share with you like wallpaper....Thibaut to be exact!
Since wallpaper came back on to the scene about 5 or so years ago..... my go to for beautiful papers has been Thibaut.
Especially grasscloth.
Like this brown one that I used .....which by the way is my new favorite!
This beautiful neutral grasscloth that has a glimmer to it!
And this pretty grasscloth damask I used in a foyer.
I just ordered this pretty blue and white one which will go in a bathroom next week.....
Other examples of Thibaut and Anna French [which Thibaut owns] papers I've used....
Now for some new papers that they have recently added!
Here is the deal.....sometimes I can look at the samples and think "ho hum"....and then I see them up and I am like "Holy Batman"!
Case in point.....with this one....
A little styling and boom.
This pretty textured paper....
Right?

Or this one
So pretty huh?
Here are a few more that caught my eye!
I need to use this one soon....it really appeals to me with it's texture and colorway.
I saw this fabric [also in a wallpaper] at Highpoint in April....
These colors made me giddy! Shocking right?

Stay tuned for next Thursday when I am participating in #projectdesignhome with bloggers Driven By Decor, Most Lovely Things, Classic Casual Home, Rough Luxe Lifestyle.
We are discussing bookshelf styling tips! I spent all day yesterday restyling them and now my house is a wreck.

I live in a tract home where the walls were given a slapped down stucco finish and popcorn ceilings. We have removed the popcorn and was wondering if I just ignore the walls? I got a quote of $20,000 to make them all smooth. I have made a few rooms smooth with handymen help but it is so time consuming and makes a mess with all the dust. What do you advise your clients when faced with this problem?
I'm so glad that people are liking wallpaper again!
Thanks
I was at the Thibaut showroom a few weeks ago and got so many of these samples I adore the matching wallcover/fabric with the deep eggplant tones and the Allaire in gray is stunning! They really stepped up their game! K
