Wallpaper Wednesday: Witch and Watchman

Take a look at the enchanting wallpaper designs by London based artist and designer Helen Z B Wilson for her company Witch and Watchman.

'...Every element in each design has been originally painted by hand in oil on canvas then digitally printed onto wallpaper and fabric using top quality manufacturers in the UK...'

The designs are also available on silk, velvet and cotton, but I think the greatest effect is when you see it laid flat on a wall surface. Just divine!

Wall Decal Wednesday: Chasing Paper

Chasing Paper is a range of fabulous re-useable/stickable/loveable wallpaper designed, developed and made in the USA.

Vintage Textile Transformations by Mr. Finch

The self-taught artist Mr. Finch is part hunter, part gatherer and fully genius. Obsessed with the rolling hills and mossy woods near his home in Yorkshire, Finch goes gathering for inspiration. "Flowers, insects and birds really fascinate me with their amazing life cycles and extraordinary nests and behavior", says the artist. He then goes hunting for vintage textiles; velvet curtains from old hotels, a threadbare wedding dress or a vintage apron and transforms them into all sorts of beasts and toadstools. The aged feel creates a sense of authenticity, or mystery as if each piece has an incredible story to tell.
