Weekend Project: Toile-Inspired Walls
You normally see sky painted walls in children's rooms, but stylist Claudia Bryant pulled the idea rather brilliantly I think into a living room space for March's Livingetc. Here's a video on how to paint clouds by Mural Joe, but Claudia's example uses abstract strokes to get a more subtle interpretation (note the geometric wallpaper which anchors the space); this would be a fun weekend decorating project wouldn't it? The toile pillows and curtains update and pull it all together.
Here's a few other toile-inspired looks that was featured in the Livingetc article. Love the larger motif's mixed with smaller and the bold colour choices. All photo's by James Merrel.
