Design Your Wall

Today's gently prodding email from someone we'll call Panda:

Subject: divorce

You are neglectful of your blog and you are neglectful of me. It’s over between us, and there is no use in trying to salvage this relationship for the sake of our panda offspring ...

She goes on, but this is a family blog and my after-work nap is wearing off so I'll get to the decorating bit. Sean introduced me to DesignYourWall.com over the weekend and, WHOA, what a resource -- guess I wasn't paying enough attention to Top Design because they were on it eons ago. One day I'll scroll through all 3500 wallpapers, custom photographic murals, papers and borders, but these are favorites from pages 1-60:


Adorable fishies by Sam Trout ($6.50/square foot)




Chic digital marble murals in black, green, and pale blue, also at $6.50/sf (office obsession with faux marble and malachite lately!)


And finally these killer 70s-80s swirls that Sean picked for his accent wall ($44.95/double roll) Yes, I'm supportive! Four walls of this baby might induce nausea but the colors totally remind me of our current style icon, Adventureland's Lisa P. Razmatazz indeed.

  3. We did! Got some amazing Regency style dining chairs for a client, a set of rattan outdoor furniture, some geode ashtrays ... though Mugatu was bidding and said most of our other hopefuls went WAY over the estimates, like 10x. The Double D name apparently still resonates because a lot of it was kinda junky!!

    Cyn, did you bid or attend?

  4. And Anon contemporary furniture and mold removal just happen to be my two major passions in life. Oh and the recorded music of Zamfir.

  5. "Phoenix" imagery has even penetrated the mold remediation industry! You were right, O Clairvoyant One!!

  7. I was watching HGTV last night and this couple of virgin home-buyers were checking out a house and every room had a wallpaper border along the ceiling. Even the laundry nook. Those suburban home-buyers can be really depressing sometimes. Just thought I'd share.
