Wallpapered Powder Rooms

Cole & Sons - "Woods" 
I like this gold mirror on the black and white paper.

Gorgeous Marbleized Paper.
The trim around the perimeter is a great unexpected touch.
I love this mirror as well.

Cole & Sons Paper
Cute little black and white bathroom.

Manuel Canovas paper for Cowtan & Tout.
Beautiful large scale print in pink!

The Famous Scalamandré Zebra Paper.

 Toile Paper.
Wrapping the ceiling in the same paper eliminates the boundaries, making it feel larger. I like doing this with paint in small rooms too!

Upholstered Headboards...

 Featured in Elle Decor (Mar 2012) this stylish headboard belongs to Jackie Astier in her NYC apartment. Love this super luxurious velvet headboard in combination with the grasscloth walls.

 Upholstered Screen!

 Floating tufted white headboard.

 Love this simple, yet eclectic room.
Upholstered panels with trim molding.

 Curved Tufted Headboard.
Note: Metallic Osborne and Little Wallpaper!

 Philip Gorrivan Fabric for Highland Court.
Interesting geometric velvet, comes in other colors as well!

Nicely shaped charcoal headboard with coral accents.
Note: Dorothy Draper side table, I'd kill for one of those.

 
Love this whimsy bedroom - that's all I have to say!

I'll now be dreaming for the perfectly shaped headboard...

Happy Valentine's Day!

All Pink.

 Suzanne Kasler Dining Room

Old world looking room in a peachy-pink.

 
 Jonathan Adler Foyer.
It's a little over the top but I like it!

 Soft and subtle nude color. 
Mixes well with the chocolate brown leather and creamy woodwork. 
Note: walls & ceiling are the same color.

Windsor Smith Living Room.
Look at all the color! And all the different shapes - this is truly eclectic!

Pretty Pink Door!

Kitchen Of The Week


Windsor Smith




Windsor Smith's Black Kitchen.
I love the way this room has such an easy-going feeling, it appears comfortable AND usable. It's a beautifully light filled space, with a balance of masculine and feminine, and the flowers add a fresh pop of color.

Roman Shades


 Malachite Shades with Black & Gold Banding.
Très Chic!

Glamorous Room with Contrasting Black Shades & White Panels.

Double Layer of Roman Shades. 
Relaxed on the bottom, flat on the top.

Sheer Romans Under Panels.
I especially like this look because the sheer shade will soften the light coming in but not block it completely. Also loving the trim on the panels.

 Heavy Linen Flat Romans

Simple Roman Shades with Black Banding.

 Gorgeous relaxed shades in linen or burlap. They add a soft frenchy feel to this room.

Simple cream shades on these floor to ceiling windows.

Eclectic Room with Woven Wood Roman Shades.

Stripes: Walls, Rugs & Fabric.


Butler's Pantry w/ horizontal stripes
Interesting little twist - I like the chocolate brown & white!

Nate Berkus Apartment
 Love, love, love this table cloth!
...and look at those gorgeous candlesticks!!


 Lavender & Cream
It looks so sophisticated with the antiques and art.

Miles Redd
Black & White stripes in a more classic setting.

 A bit more fun and fresh w/ the red & white.
Notice the small white stripe at the top - adds interest.
 
Black & White Rug
What a stately bathroom!
Notice the vertical stripe rounds up the ceiling, bringing the eye straight up.

 Suzanne Kasler
Striped dining chairs - ran horizontally.
 This is such a delightful little foyer, all black & white.
And natural greenery as an accent color.


 Last but not least, this simple almost all white room.
Love the contrasting black and white rug & pillows.

Whether you're bold enough to paint stripes on the wall, horizontal or vertical, or you just add a touch of stripe to your room it's a great visual. As you can see the butler's pantry photo adds great interest but isn't harsh on the eyes, they chose softer colors than black and white, and also painted wide horizontal stripes. Something like that bathroom with the copper tub isn't a main living space so it's a bit more intense. Where will you be adding stripes?
