Wallcoverings

Lately, I've been obsessed with grasscloth wallpaper.  It's such an elegant look (but not fancy) and adds so much interest to a space.  We have a powder room that really needs a facelift.  Grasscloth wallpaper, a Chippendale mirror and sconces would do wonders for the space.
 The seams add to the charm of this wallcovering.
 About ten years ago, I purchased this exact Chippendale mirror at an antique store and it's been in my closet ever since.  It would be perfect in the powder room.
Sconces are a beautiful addition on either side of a mirror and actually provide better lighting than a fixture hung above.  This is a favorite Scalamandre wallpaper too.  Celerie Kemble has a new line of beautiful wallcoverings for Schumacher, check them out here.

I like grasscloth in photos, but I LOVE it in person. A few homes we have visited here have it, including some historic homes. Wonderful texture and great way to cover old, not-so-perfect walls. Great post!
