Which Wallpaper?
Now that the living room is pretty much done, we’ve started thinking about wallpaper. Rachel has been mildly obsessed with wallpaper recently and has been doing lots of research. Some of our favorites so far are: Schumacher, Cole & Son, Timorous Beasties and Trustworth. (Trustworth has some awesome reproductions, but they might be a bit too much for us—haven’t decided though.)
Yesterday we went by Walnut here in Los Angeles and looked at several samples. Leslie was nice enough to let us borrow some sample books to bring home and check out. So many to choose from! We’re actually considering wallpapering quite a few rooms: the living room, dining room, center hall and Rachel’s office. We’ll keep you posted. Anyone else have favorite wallpaper sources?
