I know, I know — I’m back on my wallpaper fetish again. But let’s be honest…isn’t this delicious? Brown is by far my favorite color, with gray as a close second, and when paired with bright colors like orange and green, I just can’t resist. Who makes this beautiful wallpaper, you ask. Olli & Lime, in their own words:
Olli & Lime is about great design, without compromise. We produce children’s bedroom furnishings, yet we don’t let them conform to the ‘fluffy’ stereotype. We believe in high-quality manufacturing, while respecting the environment. We take all the usual steps; using recycled materials and recycling what we use, wherever possible. :: READ THE FULL POST

I’ve been really into wallpaper lately. In fact, a beautiful damask inspired the background of the GYD header and the gray page background. It has a way of creating drama in a space that can’t be matched by many other products or treatments. A lot of people think it went out with the 70′s — and they’re right. That gaudy, floral, monstrosity covering the walls of your grandmother’s bathroom has long been out of style. But when you have manufacturers like Graham & Brown creating beauties like this Alice Wallpaper, you have to stop and take notice. :: READ THE FULL POST

I like to think of my walls as a blank canvas on which to express my personality. And sometimes, personality can mean more than gorgeous shade of zero-VOC paint or non-toxic wallpaper. Sometimes personality needs to be expressed in a much bigger, bolder, in-your-face way. MyDigitalPrints has created an avenue to let you do that. :: READ THE FULL POST

I posted a few weeks ago about going green in your home using vintage products and elements instead of buying new. Inke Heiland has taken that concept to a new, dynamic level. INKE vintage wallpaper kits are made from unique vintage wallpapers that are cut into wildlife silhouettes, leafy trees, chairs, lamps and other household objects. Put a lion or a giraffe on the wall of your child’s room for a touch of whimsy and imagination. Or if you’re like me and love graphic silhouettes, use it to give the walls in your own bedroom or your main living area a bold focal point. I personally love the tree silhouette, with several wallpaper patterns used for the leaves that create beautiful depth. :: READ THE FULL POST

I’m Jennae Petersen, and I’m a lot of things. A mother, a graphic artist, a connosieur of beautiful interiors and a purveyor of all things design. Green Your Decor was borne of frustration in my attempts to find eco-friendly housewares that were also beautiful, and inspiration to do something to reduce my own carbon footprint and help others do the same in a beautiful way.
