Big Floral Wallpaper
So I’m still searching for the perfect wallpaper for the powder room. A while back I ordered some samples from Farrow & Ball:
I was planning to do something black and white but now I’m thinking I want to go with something blue. (I am crazy mad for blue right now.) And I adore this Peony pattern. The only thing is I think it would look great in my closet/dressing room instead.
But I’d like to use some pink in the dressing room (because it’s the one room where I won’t feel guilty about it). And I like the Wisteria pattern better in these pinks:
Did you follow that? (Even I had a hard time!)
Then there are these from Osborne & Little that have pink in them:
What do you think?
Does anyone have a good online source for either Farrow & Ball or Osborne & Little papers that they can recommend?
I have just sourced some great wallpapers from Thibaut for a few clients. So gorgeous!

Love these patterns! I think a bold print like this is perfect for a powder room!

Hi Ally!
I love to make an impact in the powder room too. I always felt like the powder room has a free license to be whimsical, bold and/or extreme. I would have to vote on either pattern from Osborne & Little for the powder room. I feel like they have the most personality. For your closet I like the WFPB2208 (pink/nude WP on right side). I am in addicted to french gray right now.
For sourcing, you're in ATL right? Do you have a designer tax id and business card? Osborne & Little has a showroom in ADAC. Or do you need a retail/design shop source?
Ok, so that's my two cents. I am not sure if it helps but good luck! I am sure it will look awesome. You have great taste.
Lisa: Thanks for the link. Off to check it out now.
Meggan: Thanks for stopping by! I would need something retail.
Monika: Farrow & Ball actually don't sell directly online – only samples.
I love that Tapetorama site!!! Such beautiful stuff!
Ally, dark blue and gold is a very nice colour background for a powder room… plus both colours are back

I would go pink in my walk-in closet – just because I know that my Huz would get nervous entering a pink powder room…. (But he is a special case…!)
Some sources:

(yes, I know they are based in Sweden. But this is a good place to get inspiration!)
I know you don't want more brands – but just in case you haven't been here:

Whatever you chose dear – I know that I am going to want the same! (:

All the online sources for O&L are UK-based, unfortunately. I just ended up going through a designer, who passed half of her discount on to me. I do really love that blue & orange paper from O&L…it's been on my love list for a while now.
{And I, too, am obsessed with all things blue right now.}

ally, i am head over heels for the farrow & ball peony wallpaper in either shade of blue. i think they would be beyond perfect for your powder room — this post just made me so excited to see how it turns out! my favorite for your dressing room is the osborne & little wallpaper on the bottom right — a neutral base that lets your clothes and accessories own the spotlight with a pretty punch of pink to make the space your own! you have some gorgeous options.

Pinks are flattering in the dressing room – you don't want anything that will fight with your outfits!
For the powder room, I love the bold blue (with a touch of black) Osborne & Little on the left but then I went black and bold with mine…

My fave of all of these is the navy peony pattern.

that Osborne and Little pomegranate is divine…

love the bottom right for a dressing room! and i think one of the top 2 would look awesome in a powder room.

I would adore the pink patterns in a dressing room — no doubt about it! But I'm totally biased, considering I'm a pink fanatic. The blues are wonderful too, though, and would probably be very soothing in a powder room!

Ooooo! I love them all, but my favorite might be the first blue.

Hi Ally,
I'm liking the bolder wallpapers – but that's me all over. I'm also going to try the links as well.
Lovely wallpapers, the two on top are my favourites!
