What are the best sources for Wallpaper? The Ultimate Wallpaper Guide

I love using wallpaper and am always excited when a client tells me that they are up for incorporating it into a space in their home. Typically I have tended to use wallpaper in powder rooms and dining rooms, but lately I have used it in a couple of bedrooms and an office. It makes such an impact even if you go with a more subtle paper.

Here is a roundup of some of my favorite places to find wallpaper!

I’ll start with York Wallcoverings which is the company that makes this beautiful paper we used in my client’s home office. I love that this paper has a bit of golden shimmer to it and yet still works so well in this masculine space.

Next up is Serena & Lily ! We used this paper as an accent wall behind my client’s bed and it is so subtle but really makes the room sing. I have another bedroom project ongoing right now and we just had a Serena and Lily grasscloth paper installed - I can’t wait to share the finished room photos.

Phillip Jeffries has SO many options that I love and is my first choice when a client wants to go BOLD and dramatic. I love how we transformed both of these bathroom by incorporating their fabulous patterns.

Graham and Brown makes so many fun options and this one was the winner for my client’s dining room. We also installed the wall paneling because I think this type of pattern could get a bit too busy if it were floor to ceiling in a space this large.

I love Anthropologie for their fashion and home decor, but they also sell some playful and whimsical wallpaper.

Where are your favorite places to shop for wallpaper? Are you planning to use wallpaper in your home this year?

Holiday Gift Guide 2023 Holiday Wish List

My family does a Secret Santa and we all set up a wish-list on Elfster. I have been adding things to my list and have been going through all of the items on my family members’ lists. I have two teenage daughters who also started to put things on their Elfster. I pulled my favorites to create a little holiday gift guide / wish list to share.

My older daughter is a big tea drinker and I love this set that I found on her Elfster. My husband has this shirt on his list which is such a classic. I already own these Anthro slippers and wear them every night as I hate being cold.

Happy Shopping!

There are also some great design finds like this rug at 50% off that I have in my den and LOVE!!  

I've used this rug in a client project and it is also 50% off - it's gorgeous!!

I just ordered this beautiful ceramic vase for $24 which is 50% off right now!

PS I also offer gift certificates if you are looking for another idea to put on your list.

Does anyone else’s family use Elfster for their Secret Santa gift exchange? We also use it for birthday gift wish lists too and I have to say that it’s been fun to be surprised each special occasion to open something that I am super excited to receive. And it makes giving gifts really fun too since you know that the gift will be so appreciated.

Decorating a Console Table - Shop the Look

I am so excited to share this recently completed family room update. This space has a lot of personality and is so light and bright. I love that my clients are not afraid of color and they fell in love with this artwork that is perfect for over the console table. We kept the rest of the decor simple so as not to take away from the beautiful piece of art.

Do you want to snag any of the items that we used in this transformation? I have a round-up of the pieces and similar items.

Happy Shopping!

On the other side of this room, we also decorated the built-ins (and selected a new rug and ottoman!)

Check out where we started with this space - I especially love the new denim ottoman. I saw it in the store and knew that it would be perfect with the new rug!

Foyer Transformation - Bergen County interior designer

Last week I went to photograph some spaces in my client’s home that we recently transformed and I am so excited to share them here. First up is the foyer. We installed new tile, painted the walls, added a light fixture and all new furniture/decor to the space.

Foyer in McGee style

Take a look at where we started- it feels like a brand new space!!

Shop the look of this foyer (the console table is no longer available but I included two others that I love).
