De Gournay

plotting and scheming w scissors and home design mags

after madly cutting and tearing

thrashing through magazine after magazine

voraciously grabbing the shots i loved on sight

im pretty sure my tongue was sticking out the side of my mouth and my brows quite furrowed

when i was done, my shoulders were cramped

and

i ended up with this pile

stood back..

hmm it appears i like green!

looks like we're painting the inside green

or white w green decor

and rustic woods

and oversized vases

and embroidered stuff

This wallpaper is freaking to die for!

I dont think ive ever seen a room that haunted me so!

i LOVE this room!

it screams PERFECT at me!

Its inspired

fabulous

remarkable

and

 MOVING

come to find out

the wallpaper,

is called de gournay and is 650$ a roll!!!!

it's HANDPAINTED!

(of course.. OF COURSE!!! agggh)

probably in a breezy flat in the middle of paris by a starving and wild haired artist who works for days on end to complete your wallpaper order!

the green the GREEEN is luminescent! it has depth and field and breath!

i spent hours last night, trying to figure out how to make my very own

or handpaint the walls

ANYTHING

to get this look!

everytime i look through magazines, its pages and pages of the same old story

makes me go "meh"

i am ALMOST never inspired by a room

im convinced its the wallpaper

or the tangerine chairs? or the super thick cocoa mouldng

i dont know

but i saw this

and kept hunting down the magazine to look at it again longingly

at least three times in one week
