An OMG Wallpaper!


I had an hour to kill before picking up Elle the other day, so I ran into Phelan's with my mom.  Originally I went in looking for wallpaper for the powder bath -- something a long the lines of map or city scene.  We've been eyeing these or something similar 


And this is what I found at Phelan's . . .
It's a map of London, but doesn't shout "London" and comes in two colors (left and right).  It's much harder than I thought to find something that is not cheesy or New York or Paris.  

Next we started flipping through grasscloth books for the Dinning Room.  I found two that I liked, but didn't love . . . until we found the OMG Wallpaper! 
Osbourne & Little 
My bad iphone pic does not do this amazing paper justice!  It is absolutely stunning!!  The background is a soft gold/silver/barely metallic tone with an emerald green water colored scene. 

The great thing about our dinning room is that it can hold a bold pattern like this.  One wall is completely windows, wall two is a doorway (a pretty big doorway, too) into the Living Room, leaving only two full walls that will be wallpapered.
