Funny, but now that wallpaper is all over my FB newsfeed, but the pink version that IL favors.
Oh, shoot, sorry, rosa!!Quote:

Hanging wallpaper is in DH's DNA--his mother and grandmother wallpapered the house silly with all kinds of wallpaper. Mostly flocked because they lived in an old house with plaster walls. Of course, they made DH help, so he's had good training, and I'm not bad myself. This will be a piece of cake because we are not wallpapering a large area.Quote:

All that said, I definitely do NOT have a "decorating" gene. :~)
Oh that wasn't a complaint, just an observation. It's pretty enough that I don't mind seeing it. :)Quote:

And they they turned around and—-put up wall paper! Haha. In the double parlor, a gorgeous room, they put up red flocked wallpaper, kinda reminiscent of Miss Kitty’s whorehouse.they made some bold decorating choices.
one time my dad painted a bathroom black and stenciled gold stars everywhere on walls. That was Out There. But we kids thought it was great.
