Decorating with Wallpaper-how I use it in my home

January 5, 2016 By houseofhargrove@gmail.com

Today I am sharing my love for decorating with wallpaper and how I use it in my home.  I used to hate wallpaper!  I associated it as old lady, matchy matchy (you know the kind…the border matched the faux floral arrangement in the middle of the table, type of thing), but not any more!  Wallpaper has changed so so much from back in the day and now I think it is an awesome way to add interest, character and really transform a room.

I have wallpaper in many areas throughout my home and get asked about them all the time.  Here are all the details…

OFFICE:  

Originally I wanted to do a real wood planked ceiling.  When I started looking at the pricing it was way over what I wanted to spend.  It also added too much bulk to the ceiling and I didn’t want to have to replace the crown molding.  When I found this wallpaper I knew it was the answer.  The price was great and it was so much easier.  In person you honestly cannot tell that it is not real wood.  I put it right over our orange peel textured ceiling so it adds a little texture adding to the over all effect.  I am so so happy with it!

Get it HERE or HEREwallpaper IMG_4849

FAMILY ROOM:

I wanted to add a little bit of interest in the nook where I have our TV.  Wallpaper was the perfect answer.  I got one that is almost the same color as my paint, but had a geometric design for a little added interest.

You can get it at Lowes HERE

GUEST ROOM

This is my all time favorite wallpaper EVER!  It was a splurge, but with how much it adds to the room it was really not that expensive.  The details are just amazing, it covers an entire wall so I didn’t have to buy any other decor and it is such a statement!  This was my Joanna Gaines moment before I knew who she was 🙂

You can get it HERE or HERE

POWDER BATH

This is the powder bath we have downstairs and I wanted something bold in here.  This is actually fabric hung on the wall.  I couldn’t find any wallpaper that I loved, but I fell love with this fabric so I went with it..  It turned out great!

You can get the fabric HERE

I will be doing another post on wallpaper soon and showing lots of creative ways to use it!  A huge part of decorating is the details and wallpaper is a good way to get huge bang for the buck!

✨REMODEL UPDATE: POWDER BATH✨

This bath got a huge cosmetic update & reconfiguration.
It had a very awkward angle in the corner that kind of threw off the space. We disguised it with custom cabinetry and a faux panel. This added useful storage, design & now you’d never know there was a strange angle.

Some fun wallpaper, paint, counter details, hardware & sconces finished off this great space.

Now functional & beautiful.

How many cats does it take to officially be a cat lady…asking for a friend 😹

Meet Kaya & Strawberry our newest foster kitties! They are only with us two weeks, but we are soaking in every minute of their cuteness. Our first round of fostering failed… hence the newest member of the family Callie, but it was the best failure ever. ❤️

Last week we snuck away for a quick girls trip to Park City and had the best time 🤍
So much quality time, lots of laughs, and memories I’ll cherish forever. It was my first trip to Utah and I absolutely loved it…the scenery, the charm, all of it. Also loved finally getting to visit @the_fox_market in person… I’ve always adored everything they do!

Duck update 🦆

If you’ve been following along in my stories, a mama duck made herself at home in the planter by our pool and laid 11 eggs. For the last month, she faithfully sat on them every day…with occasional pool dates with her duck daddy. 🤍

Last week, 9 little ducklings hatched and the whole family has now relocated somewhere new. It was such a fun thing to watch.
We will miss our little duck friends, but I will not miss all the poop 🤦🏼‍♀️.
