for the love.... of wallpaper!

of wallpaper! wallpaper, you ask?! yes, wallpaper. i'm obsessed with my accent walls... and the paper that adorns it. i've had the paper up for a few months now, but am just getting around to post about it. when i found it at the wallpaper store, i was only looking for paper for one wall in my bedroom. as soon as i saw this fabulous paper i knew i had to use it... somewhere! it wouldn't work in my bedroom, but i brought home the sample anyways... and found the perfect spot for it!

so the sample is hard to see here, but this is my entry way with the front door there in the picture. this is the color of the wall the previous owners' had and i never cared for it... it grew on me, but i always knew i'd paint it. until i found that wallpaper. and then i knew. it HAD to be on that wall!

i mean it just matched so perfectly with my kitchen which is right there with that entryway wall. it works so well with the counters, the backsplash tile, and the cabinets! can you see how perfect it is?!?! i mean it even has the reddy/orange color in there that represents the previous wall and also draws in the the reddish squares in the glass bezel cabinet accents!


my painter jason is installing the paper! he did such a fabulous job with the painting and paper in my whole place!

this is how it was decorated for Christmas.

and after jason was done installing the main wall, he told me we had quite a bit of extra paper... i was sitting in my desk alcove area that looked up the stair case... and i asked... is there enough to do this wall at the top of the stairs?! and there was! you can see a peak of it in the picture above... and otis just chillin'. he loves his steps.

so. i have a bit more wallpaper left... and no other walls that should be covered it in. but, i would love to use it! any creative fun project ideas?! come on ladies, i need some help!!!
