makeover monday: whimsical wallcovering
Finally! It's been a couple of months since I spotted and drooled over a certain wallpaper from
York Wallcoverings, and have since made it a must-have. Awhile ago, York introduced the
Walt Disney Signature Collection, which is composed of designs inspired by Walt Disney. The papers are stunning and nothing like you'd imagine when you hear the name 'Disney' {i.e. they don't have Goofy or Pluto splashed all over them}. Though it was hard to choose, I went with the
Illuminata paper, which was inspired by the opening of 'The Nutcracker Suite' from the film
Fantasia. You can check out all the patterns from the collection on the
York Wallcoverings website, and buy from
Crown Wallpaper & Fabrics {the Canadian retailer}.
I'm new to wallcoverings -- after years of living in apartments -- so I eased into it by doing a small wall in the entryway of my new home. I had a bunch of errands to run on Saturday {HomeSense and lunch with a friend, natch}, so Mick was actually the one to put it up. And he did a fabulous job, might I add -- he was a wallpaper virgin and now he's a pro! Below are a few after shots; I love how it blends in with all the holiday sparkle.
So what do you think? All that's left to do is paint the trim white {eugh, I hate you, builder's paint}, add a pretty rug and find a showstopper mirror.

Lauren
