I've been wanting to dip my toes into wallpaper for an embarrassingly long time. Yes I know, wallpaper is messy and a pain and ...outdated (or so you think!) I've done my fair share of scraping off layers of wallpaper from houses built in the 50's and spent my time in elementary school helping my mom hang up boarders around rooms (and then take them off again.)

I opened my box and it was packed with so many goodies - let me tell you, it is mega nice to have a stylist picking things out for you! I didn't keep everything in the box because I wasn't in love with it all, but this sweater and the scarf were MUST KEEPS. They have already come in super handy to keep me ... continue reading...
