Is everyone thinking about wallpaper as much as we are now? I know we might regret it 10 years from now, but it’s just wallpaper, so why not have fun? Right!
Especially in smaller spaces, which is what we're seeing the most of. Mild risk in a Powder Room or Pantry compared to a whole Living or Dining. I went out on a limb on this Farmhouse Fixer project knowing the client was neutral about wallpaper, probably as there was SO much in this house to take out.
In this case with TV, the homeowners couldn't make decisions, we got to make it for them. I remember asking @jonathanrknight a bunch of times if we were really going to surprise her with wallpaper, I was so nervous! But just look at how pretty this texture and color is in that little space.
What are your wallpaper dreams right now???

One of my favorite stair designs ever. Years later we're pulling runner ideas and it can't be anything with too much activity or it would compete.
This X design drove the builder Ray crazy. He was so very patient with me and for that I am thankful. Not only was meeting code clearly a concern (where does the cable rail go, through the middle, with holes drilled, on one side, and if it's on one side are the actual boards offset on the newel post ... and how will that look ... think ... sleepless nights like that !). All that ended up working out and I can't believe I lost so much sleep thinking about where the cable rail fell. No one except for my designer friends would ever notice!
The bottle light still makes me happy. We had grand plans of putting our own neat bottles up there, and with the insanity of construction it never happened. I'd love to go back and change just one .... If I was super tall and carried a ladder in my Mini .... 🤣

We have outdoor spaces coming to fruition right now after a good off season planning. I snagged a bit of time on my patio this morning with coffee and a book, definitely need to break up all that computer time!
You know what my biggest outdoor design issue is? Cushion storage! What's missing on the market? Really good storage cabinets! We never leave our cushions out, its my theory of 'take care of your toys and they last longer' .... We lug them in and out every single time we want to use them. Annoying but years later they all still look great.
This project (not my house!) was a nice easy mix of a cozy sofa that had bigger cushions (and a really great batik looking pattern) with a lighter weight more movable chair with less of a cushion. Less to store. Keep that in mind when thinking patio. That's why my extra 4 chairs on my patio have NO cushions!
What's your outdoor furniture frustration?
