A Mess


I'm obsessed with wallpaper border.  For two nights in a row I studied every wallpaper.com on the net and pieced together all kinds of possibilities on printshop to see what would look good.  

hey... it's not done yet...  don't judge me

My house is a mess.  Paint cans everywhere.  Gracie, annoyed. 

So I took a sample of my newly painted living room into Sherwin Williams and asked the guy if the border I was about to buy would look okay with the color I painted my living room.  He took one look at the sample (the color I painted my living room) and said, "I don't like it."  I said, "Well, it's too late for that now.  It's done.  Now help me find something that will go with it."  And he did. lol.  

Nate Berkus, design expert and star of The Nate Show, 
came to mind.

  3. Why not just stencil the border, that way it will match...

  4. Why does Nate Berkus wear his jackets a size too small? I still like him, though! I will be really excited to see the border you got, SO many choices!! And I want to see the hole room when it's finished.
