Wallpaper of the Week - Giselle by Harlequin

A bit of light opulent red and gold this week, but done tastefully !

Giselle from the Delphine Collection by Harlequin. Its a really lovely matt print, close up it looks like its been colour blocked on to the gold background with the odd smudged edge for authenticity. It gives a modern take on a classic floral. The colours are bang up to date as well, in six styles ranging from limes and beiges through to creams and my personal favourite, a really user-friendly matt grey and white.

Anyone wanting a sample please don't hesitate to get in touch ...

(Many thanks again to the lovely people at Harlequin for sending me out a photo disk so that I can feature their beautiful papers)

Wallpaper of the Week - Persephone by Clarissa Hulse for Harlequin


Another week and another wallpaper... from the same Kallianthi Collection as last week but a gorgeous duck egg and silver paper called Persephone. The subtle but effective vertical stripes in the background colour are enhanced by a two tone silvery overlay of leaf patterns combining to give a stunning overall impact.

Its available in six different colour ways ranging from a quite heavy dark grey with mustardy lime leaves through a striking sage with shocking pink leaves to a gentle beige with silver and matt white. The extent of the variations adapt the paper from an 'in-your-face-wallpaper-wall' to a beautifully calm scene as the image shows above.

Wallpaper of the Week - Nettles by Clarissa Hulse for Harlequin

UPDATE - My new Harlequin Disk has arrived (thank you) new image but in different colour-way)



Happy New Year !! ...yeah I know its February already and another year is flying by, so I thought it was about time that I pulled my finger out and shared with you some of my current favourites and you can ponder along with me as to where I can squeeze in this gorgeous paper ??
Now the image isn't showing it off to its best - I have applied to Harlequin for the room shot as believe me it really is stunning. The background has a subtle glimmer to it with a delicate matt texture added in the coloured print.....I *need* it !!
That said the whole collection is bloomin' gorgeous ! Its called Kallianthi and there are wallpapers and co-ordinating fabrics ranging from printed cottons to silks. The colours are so striking its just what you need to cheer everyone up on a freezing February day. I'll try and remember to add a few more over the next few weeks.
In the meantime if anyone would like a sample to see it for themselves please do not hesitate to get in touch.
