A guess, because the design is tentatively based on the only design we can see from the upcoming line of wallpaper by Rifle Paper Co. for Hygge & West. There are more patterns to come in May!
The bathroom on the second floor is nice, just not to my taste. There is fruit-themed wallpaper, hunter green on a mottled tan background, with a green and maroon border, and a yellow faux-finish on the claw foot tub. The bones of the room are good though, and I’ve been happy to not do much in there until inspiration came along. Inspiration came along. Last Friday, I immediately started scheming up a design plan featuring the new wallpaper line.

Dean Stockwell in ‘The Boy with Green Hair,’ Art.com
I’ve not seen the movie, but I love this as a photograph. -
Rifle Paper Co. Wallpaper, Hygge & West
I could easily work with this yellow and green design, but the full line will be out May 19 with more options. -
My Bathroom
Brass and antique fixtures, ahoy! -
Brass Bathroom Waste Basket, Target
Yep, more brass. I picked this up a while ago, so it’s already in the room. -
Fleur-de-Lys Juice Glass, Anthropologie
I moved all of the toothbrushes to the inside of the medicine cabinet, so I’m on the lookout for tumblers small enough to fit into the holders on the sink. These may be too delicate, but they are adorable. -
Large Hicks Pendant, Circa Lighting
I’m dying to use one in this house, and the bathroom could be the perfect spot. I do still have the small oval and brass pendant from Eleanor’s room though, which could be a good (free) option. -
Row Stripe Towel, West Elm
Stripes are always welcome. -
Martini Side Table in Antique Brass, West Elm
I bought this originally for the vintage bathroom in our first house and then didn’t use it there because the room was too small. The bathroom’s a little larger in this house though, and it fits perfectly. -
Schoolhouse Numbered Hooks, Pottery Barn
These are up, and you’ve seen them already because I used ’em to announce baby number three! -
Pharmacy Accessories in Amber Glass, Restoration Hardware
The sink has a built-in (unfortunately shell-shaped) spot for the soap, but I like the look of these for the room. -
Painted Claw Foot Tub
I’ll choose a color for the tub from the wallpaper, like this lovely green.
Two more months! I’m so eager to get started!

March 24, 2014 at 11:26 amI am so excited about this news. I love Rifle’s designs and their colorways always make me happy. I would be so excited to use their paper in my house somewhere. I love the scheme you pulled together…can’t wait to see it come to life.

March 24, 2014 at 12:05 pmI bet if YOU asked Anna Bond for a preview of the other papers shed give them to you. You are the perfect person to debut a real life installation of her beautiful work.

March 24, 2014 at 1:54 pmLove the greens! I think this will look updated, but still give a nod to the character and history of your house. Can’t wait to see what you come up with! :)

March 24, 2014 at 7:52 pmNow you have me looking for a wall in my house to wallpaper! Love Rifle Paper Co and Hygge & West! The green and yellow palette works so well with your bathroom fixtures.

March 25, 2014 at 6:08 amOh my goodness, that wallpaper is great! You might want to ask an electrician about pendants in bathrooms… I think in many places there are electrical codes (i.e. restrictions) about hanging lights within certain distances of tubs and what not, also maybe need to consider UL damp ratings… just something to keep in mind. : )

March 25, 2014 at 6:10 amThanks for the safety reminder. I guarantee the light that’s in there now needs to go (it fizzles in and out).

March 25, 2014 at 3:28 pmI bought the same Target waste basket about three weeks ago. I feel very fancy now that it got your endorsement :-)

Your lovely emails have stopped and I feel quite bereft, and whilst I’m probably being slightly technologically challenged, but I cannot for the life of me work out how to subscribe again.

March 28, 2014 at 10:20 pmI just said I wish Ana Bond would make some wallpaper. Seriously her patterns never wear on me! I can’t wait to see all the colors. Hopefully one will work in the living room! I actually gave Nick a 2 week deadline to find some wallpaper before I stenciled something. Guess I just pushed our deadline.

Just… please keep any light fixtures you’re replacing. (I know you will, as you mention saving base board from “behind” the new bookshelves. I just have to put it in black & white. ;) )
