The bathroom is a sanctuary, a quiet place to relax and pamper, so, why not try to get the most out
of it by thinking beyond the borders that define it (like four walls) and making way for a whole new
communion with the outdoors?

Pump Up Your Decor with Wallpaper

because I like some visual breathing space,
but pattern does add extra life to a space
and on the walls, it adds style and
dimension. Have you heard of
Pennsylvania-based wallcoverings company
called York? They recently started to print
two and three-color designs on their
centuries-old surface print presses with a
distinct painterly effect and a modern
vibe. A few of my favorite patterns are
shown below. To see many more, visit
their website for the complete range.

with two others from a company called

Life patterns that caught my eye – I love
these. The pink pattern is called Giraffes
and the other is Yellow Birds. These are

papers work so nicely in small spaces as
well as larger rooms – for instance inside
of a glass cabinet or in a small guest
bathroom. I imagine the pink and orange
paper shown below featured behind a bed
in a guest room – fun and bright – with a
duvet and bed linens in stripes and tiny
floral patterns with a retro feel. I can see it
in little girl’s bedroom, to0. It’s very retro
and charming, don’t you think?
Next, let’s look at these papers below from
York Wallcoverings. You can find them all
on their website.
These patterns are quite smart looking,
don’t you think? I love the “mix + match”
combination using two different patterns
in blue and white – very chic! I appreciate
all styles from retro to modern and find
that if you tap into your creativity a bit

BUT for those of you who currently get
stuck with mixing patterns and color then
a good decorating “rule” to follow is to
pick a focal point in the room – a good
leading lady or man - (wallpaper, art, your
patterned sofa) and then mix in your

the star of the show — though as you
experiment and gain decorating
confidence it’s a good idea to throw in a
little healthy competition and to not play
it too safe which is why I suggest adding in
something that competes with the focal
point – like a lamp that is out of scale in
the opposite corner from the focal point
or a chair off to the side in a wild, totally
bonkers pattern. Healthy tension is good
but if every single thing in a room is
fighting for attention it all can be very
overwhelming and draining to the person
living there and to your guests.
With everything though – edit, edit, edit!

One last bit before I go, remember what

– it takes courage to bring your ideas to
