Frames Wallpaper...
I enjoyed sharing my wallpaper finds in a previous post, but my favorite was the frames one! I really LOVE it! This one below is from Graham & Brown and although I don't think its the same one in my previous post here, its quite similar. Does anyone have this G & B frames wallpaper in their home?? or something similar?? I ACTUALLY had one made for my booth at 'National Stationery' show earlier this year and it came out pretty damn nice! (2nd photo below) I guess it was DIY project in way. I decided to use it to make my cards appear as if they were inside the frames..!

That is so cool! I love that idea!
your diy came out lookine awesome!i love the very bold black lines.
I LOVE this! I think I might have to do something with this one...
I love it! Your booth turned out amazing! It really does look like you went and framed everything. Brilliant!
Jen, that is too funny about the chalkboard paint!!! Yes, please post a picture of what your hubby did. I would LOVE to see it before I do mine. Painting it on the board sounds like a great idea then it's not that big of a deal if you want to take it down or move it to another room! Could you tell me what type of wood/board you used?
Cheers!

PS- love the wallpaper post and LOVE your booth..it is just fabulous in every sense of the word!
so cute and very original!!
I have no idea why I didn't read your blog until now! This is so strange. I knew your cards and loved them but by golly I love your blog! This wall paper reminds me of this trick I played on my couch recently. And then I see that you too posted about the kid-painted couch.
At any rate I'm adding you on my RSS feed (and blog roll) so that this won't happen again :-)
very cute without being overly "cutesy". . ..love it.
Love it- does it come pre-pictured or can you actually draw in the frames? I so can see this in my Little One's room.
Thanks...I ALSO was happy the way my DIY wallpaper came out. It was a rush job but wow! :)
Hi Corine,
Well, I'm glad you found me now! :)))
Would love to see you back here! : )
P.S. Corine,
Wonder what your couch looks like... hmmm anything like that kid painted one...and I will be jealous ha! JK
Hello Trina,
The wood I used for the chalkboard was laminated pine, 2' x 6' and cost me about $18 at home depot. Would work better though if you cover it with a 1/8" HDF sheet... I then used chalkboard paint by rustoleum (comes in black or a choice of 12 other colors). I will be posting it on my blog next i think!
:)
Tracey, if i'm not mistaken it should come pre-pictured...so it would be just ready to hang. :)
love this paper! and your booth looked awesome! love all the color :)
Your booth is fab. I definitely need to get a catalog and make an order for my new store...would like to talk about custom stuff too. Call me :)
I love that!
Loving this! Your booth was amazing!
(Just discovered your blog and I'm already obsessed with the cuteness of it all, haha)
I hate to sound mundane but I love love love this wallpaper.
The only thing that isn't clear from their site is if you could wash it down and start again if you wanted to...
I have pages and pages in my sketch books that look just like that...
That is so whimsical and adorable!
You asked if any of us had something similar, yes I have and it would work perfectly for a future booth as well as home. It is a range of stencils called Print Room from The Stencil Library. They combine print and stencilled frames. Email me if you want to know more and I will send you some pictures or view some on the side bar at my blog.
I have this wallpaper in my Toilet! Whenever people go to use the toilet they can write or draw on the paper - and then read what everyone else has put. I also put all the crazy photos from nights out up in the bathroom too. Lets just say its a conversation starter with my guests!
