My wallpaper samples arrived!

As well as the bedroom, i am desperate to change my living space and i have decided on some Florence Broadhurst designs. My two samples arrived today! I adore both designs for different reasons, i just can't get away from the metallic feel and incredible print. Which do you prefer?



Here are photographs that give you a better idea of the fabulous designs overall....

    F. Broadhurst was so very talented, they are both great, the bird more elaborate in design and the butterfly a lighter look! Fab

    I'm a little partial to the Tropical Floral wallpaper (the blue one) because I used it in my kitchen. You can see what it looks like here if you like:

    The other wallpaper is lovely too! Very elegant. It depends on your decor. What colour is your lounge and other furniture in the room?

    I love the wallpaper with the butterflies/papillons but I do have a thing about them at present as I simply adore them :-)

    OOOH. I love them both. love both colors too. This will be a hard decision. The platinum back ground it really yummy it is what sets the colors and make it pop. I love wallpaper and I don't think you can go wrong with either choice.
    I have tagged you on my blog come by and see.

    I guess I would go for the pink one. it's the pattern that attracted me, it looks a bit oriental too, that's make it stands out :)

    Best wishes,

    i'm going with the butterflies at the moment, and i, like you cannot get enough of metallic anything right now. i think it's just fun to have a hint of gleam and sparkle to your home. :)

    Love the turquoise option, probably because it's my favorite color. Good luck!

    Kellie, I found your gorgeous site through Porch Light Interiors. I haven't gone back to your older posts, so I am clueless about your likes. So this opinion is just my favorite - (drum roll)...and the winner is the beautiful pink/plantinum peacock print. I LOVE IT!! Rhon

    Love them both! I prefer the blue over the pink. It is a bit more modern looking of the two. Can't wait to see which you pick and what it looks like.

    Have you read the book about her life? Fascinating lady. And yes a very sad end but what a legacy! Choose the blue, its calmer but still has the wow factor.
    I love her designs too and have vague memories of the sort of patterns you see from my childhood...oooooo...that dates me doesnt it!
    Have fun deciding!!!

    I want you to have both!

    ...one on one wall, the other on another wall..?

    or, one in a main room and the other some where unexpected...the hallway, the closet, the ceiling?

    Be bold my beautiful brazen one.
