In Mad Love...

with this wallpaper by the amazing designer Sheila Bridges- it's called Enchanted Forest.
.

I want to put it here.


This is my main upstairs bathroom.  Sadly, we don't have a powder room on the main floor so although this is the kids' bathroom, it is also for our guests.  I adore this paper because it's whimsical and charming but also so dramatic.  I think the venetian mirror would really pop against the black background and because our floor tiles are a black and white checkerboard pattern, the paper would play off it really nicely.  I think this paper is another example of how kids decor can still be chic and relevant- this bathroom may be technically the kids' bathroom but it can still make me smile when I walk by it everyday :)
More on Sheila Bridges later in the week- she is amazing!

  2. Gorgeous wall paper - it is definitely dramatic, and also classic. Looking forward to seeing the final result.

  3. How beautiful -- your bathroom and the paper.
    I love the way Sheila Bridges subverts the classic in such an appealing way.
    Go for it, wolves to the wall, this is one choice you will never regret ; )

  5. Thanks everyone! I'm hoping to get all of my wallpapering started in the next couple of weeks so will definitely post some pictures when it is all done- I need to get a sample of the enchanted forest and make sure I love it as much in person as I do on the computer screen:)
