If these walls could talk...

Posted on: Friday, September 17, 2010


They'd say how depressed they are from the 'warm vanilla' paint I hurriedly put on them when we moved in our house last fall. Well, at least it was better than the blood red wallpaper that was on from the previous owner. But now I am finally getting around to giving my dining room walls some well deserved love with gorgeous wallpaper from Madison + Grow. With Teresa's help (she is legendary color consultant/ specialist around these parts as well as being a wallpaper designer), she suggested the Madison paper in Iced Mocha for my dining room. I have lots of wood trim in my house, which I have a love / hate relationship with, LOTS of photos, vinatge paintings, thrift store finds, chandeliers, etc...it's one big hodgepodge of a collection and I think this paper might help tie things together a bit more.
What you can't tell from the picture is that the creamy white part of the design is actually a pearlescent off white. It's shimmery, yet subtle. I think it helps make it more of a soft wash of pattern. I think i will love it. And we're gonna do floor to ceiling instead of just above the chair rail to lengthen the walls..a little design tip from Teresa. Now I just have to barter with my sister's husband to come up and hang it for me.....
