Not your Grandma’s Wallpaper Part 2

July 9, 2018 By houseofhargrove@gmail.com

One of my first blog posts ever (back when I blogged like 2 times a year) was called “Not Your Grandma’s Wallpaper”.  I talked about how much I used to hate wallpaper. . . you know, the fruit clusters, roosters, etc.  Now, there are so many beautiful options out there.  Several rooms in my home have wallpaper and I plan to do even more in the next home.  I have rounded up some beautiful examples of wallpaper inspiration that I hope will give you ideas how you can use it in your own decor.

WALLPAPER INSPIRATION

BUFFALO CHECK WALLPAPER

I am in love with buffalo check.  It is such a fun way to add pattern, but is still pretty neutral.  It is also timeless and classic.  This beautiful wallpaper is peel and stick and super affordable!  SHOP WALLPAPER HERE

 I love the way Erin from My Texas House used buffalo check wallpaper as a backsplash accent to her kids desk area.  Adds just the right amount of pop!

Erin: My Texas House

How pretty is this nursery?!  I just love all the bold color choices and that purple buffalo check wall is amazing!  Mallory from Style Your Senses has such amazing talent!  Click here to check out this entire room.  She just moved into a new home so I cannot wait to see all her beautiful room transformations!

House of Jade Interiors Blog

First of all this room is amazing.  I don’t have a dog, but I can imagine having a specific dog washing shower in a mudroom or laundry room would be the coolest.  They I love how they used this fun dog print paper.  Really adds charm to this room!  SHOP WALLPAPER HERE

Traci Zeller Interiors

Here is another amazing laundry room with a dog washing station and more fun wallpaper.  SHOP WALLPAPER HERE

BLACK & WHITE WALLPAPER

This black and white scalloped inspired wallpaper is a neat way to spruce up a laundry room!  I hate doing laundry, but enjoy it much more in a fun room.

Charcoal and white is such a pretty color combo to me and this wallpaper pattern helps add interest.

Black and white floral wallpaper by Ralph Lauren gives this room the most beautiful look.

BLUE & WHITE WALLPAPER

My mudroom is one of the most used rooms in our home and I love how pretty this one is.  Functional and beautiful.  The chandelier and the wallpaper really dress up the space.

Megan Bachman Interiors

I love everything about this space.  The windows, the chandelier and of course the wallpaper.  Comes in multiple colors.  SHOP WALLPAPER HERE

The Heart and Haven

NATURAL ELEMENT WALLPAPER

This peel and stick wallpaper looks like wood shiplap.  Just peel off the back to apply and simple to remove!  Much easier and much less expensive than real wood.  SHOP WALLPAPER HERE

D Marie Interiors

Grass cloth is such a beautiful choice when it comes to wallpaper.  You can get it in any color and it adds great texture.  SHOP WALLPAPER HERE

Marianne Simon Designs

UNIQUE WALLPAPER IDEAS

I love this idea of using wallpaper on the stair treads.  It adds so much character.

Mornings in Malibu

If you just want to add a small pop of pattern, lining the backs of cabinets is also a great idea.  Here they used fabric and that is a great option for wallpaper.

A Lo and Behold Life

I hope you found lots of inspirational wallpaper ideas.  You can see how I have used wallpaper in my home HERE.

When designing our home the kitchen was such an important space. We spend a lot of time in there. I wanted it to be beautiful and functional. Here are some of my favorite features in our kitchen.

I’ve been on the hunt for faux flowers for my outdoor pots and I finally found a winner!!

🌸 comment SHOP and I’ll send you the links

I kept spending lots of money each season on real flowers and it was so much work keeping them alive!

I was looking for a better option and finally found one!

These faux flowers are
•BEAUTIFUL ....always in bloom
•ZERO MAINTENANCE ...no watering, fertilizing, etc
•BUDGET FRIENDLY ...these are priced great and you don’t have to replace them each season
•AND LOOK REAL. Some faux flowers are bad!! These really look good and unless you dig in there you’d never know they are faux

Each pack comes in a bundle of 2 bunches. Each bunch has 7 stems. You can plant 2 ways and I tried both. You can plant the bundle attached together and bend the stems (they are wired) to spread everything out....or....you can cut the bundles apart and plant the stems individually. I ended up doing that and thought they looked more realistic that way.  I ended up using 5 packages (10 bunches) for 2 large pots and 1 smaller pot.

I share both ways on IG stories so you can see the difference.

I also removed some soil and added floral foam blocks beneath, recovered with dirt and stuck the flowers in them.  I don’t think this step was necessary, but I wanted to make sure they were in there firm.

I’m so excited I now get to enjoy beautiful flowers with zero work 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Last year, Geoff and I added wires up this wall in a diamond trellis pattern. We planted creeping fig, but unfortunately, it all died this winter. I just planted Star Jasmine in its place so really hoping it survives. Texas weather is hard!. Thanks to a little AI magic I was able to create what my ultimate vision is. Fingers crossed it will look like this in a couple of years.

I just learned that May 3 is World Naked Gardening Day 🤣 I seriously can’t believe there is a day dedicated to this, but maybe lots of people need fences 🤷🏼‍♀️😉🌱🌿

Yall I recently discovered you could make fun art on ChatGPT using your own images for free! @ciarakenaston inspired me with her Beatrix Potter images and I did a deep dive and found you can do so many cool things!

🩵 Download ChatGPT if you haven’t already and have fun!

Upload an image. Can be of your home, your family, etc and then type in prompts to have it alter your image. You can play around with it and try all kinds of things but here were my prompts for the video

1. Beatrix Potter inspired illustration
2. Jan Brett inspired illustration
3. Vintage oil painting
4. E.H. Shepard inspired illustration 
5. Retro British cottage core style

If you do some be sure to share and tag me. I’d love to see them. Endless possibilities!!
