More Wall Decals

Speaking of wall decals, it was around two years ago that I first discovered them via What Is Blik.  They consider themselves the world's first removable graphic company, providing "wall graphics for the commitment phobic".  Back then I spent hours and hours pouring over the website, trying to decide which decal could work for our living room and bedroom.  I never did choose one! 


I've heard that they can be quite tricky to install, and I'm not sure they're quite right for our 1927 Spanish Style apartment, but a few of my favorites below:



  









   



I also just discovered Surface View, who have an incredible range of images that can be applied to walls, canvas, even blinds.  

The beetle is kind of amazing, if a little creepy!















I think the only danger is overdoing it i.e. using one in every room!





Stripes: Wall Decals

My stripe obsession is well known.  I've always wanted to have a striped wall and/ or ceiling in my house.  My current favorite use of stripes is the ceiling of the Avalon Hotel by Kelly Wearstler:








I figured that I'd use the painters tape method when the time came, however I just discovered a potentially much easier, not to mention much less permanent way to add striped walls: decals!

Little Green Notebook featured this apartment (which originally appeared in The New York Times) with brown striped walls courtesy of decals from Walls Need Love.


They have tons of color and size options too!






Now I just need the right wall!
