yeah, i totally admit it...
i love imperial trellis.
i don't even care that i have seen
it in what seems like a
trillion magazines and a
billion people's homes.
i still love it.
(but the price tag keeps me
at arms length from the
"real stuff")
(darn you kelly wearstler and schumacher!)
however, i have seem some really creative
knock-off attempts that i just
may have to try out sometime.
the first one was kirsten's
project using freezer paper to
make fabric:
and, then, this one...
which i spotted at
it is the brain child of
she made her own stencil and
painted her walls with it!
totally fabulous!
and totally do-able.
i think she did a fantastic job.
i love the way she used the pearlized paint
for a beautiful tone on tone effect.
gorgeous!
if i had a "real" house
right now, i swear i would be at
the hardware store
right now getting supplies to
copy her idea.
you can get her detailed instructions here

ReplyDeleteI don't think I'll ever tire of that print as well.
ReplyDeleteBoth of those ladies did any amazing job at recreating it.
I have to say the stenciling was my favorite.
um yeah--you think??? i've been wanting to do something to my entryway and i would love this, especially in a tone on tone scheme with different sheens. love this.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the project love.
ReplyDeleteI am in love with your blog. I am off to check out more of your amazing projects/renos.
(Also adding you to blogroll.)
That is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI am totally in love with the look of that!
ReplyDeleteI agree! Very addictive! In fact, my goal was to find a very similar pattern at a much lower cost and I found some amazing fabric almost identical pattern for less than $50/yard! I might end up selling some of it soon, so check my blog occasionally. www.loft32.blogspot.com
