This week was all about wild animals, specifically leopards and herons. Both installs, one in Falls Church, VA, the other in Northwest DC, are bold choices and colors for small spaces These designs transformed the powder rooms. Spoonflower’s newest grass cloth, Leopard Exotic Jungle is a grass cloth/natural sisal with a slight luster. The herons wallpaper is a Japonisme style wallpaper found on Etsy.
William Morris wallpapers are one of my favorites for powder rooms. My Fauquier County client made a beautiful choice of paper, Golden Lily, to take a very small space and make it feel warm but dramatic, as only Morris paper can do. Installing paper above the chair rail and painting below with a bold color fit her home perfectly.
A “work-in-progress” this week at Dumbarton House installing beautiful paper from Adelphi Paper Hangings, LLC Bixey Vine & Drapery.
Dumbarton House is a 1799 Federal period historic house museum in Georgetown, DC. Much American history in this house!
