This green color with the white accent is a hot new trend. The Moroccan stencil can be applied in any color (see below), but I think this bright green just pops!

















Ballarddesigns.com has a few room shots with a wallpaper that gives you a similar look. But, you have to know that the price to stencil is much less than wallpapering, right?

Like this look? Find the Moroccan wall stencil from stencilease.com. The natural stone tiles match any color bathroom. You can get a similar tile at The Home Depot.

Take a walk on the wild side...
This new zebra print wall stencil is cooler than cool.

They mostly have rugs and wall hangings in all sorts of animal print.

Art Deco was a popular international art design movement from 1925 until the 1940s, affecting the decorative arts such as architecture,interior design and industrial design, as well as the visual arts such as fashion, painting, the graphic arts and film. At the time, this style was seen as elegant, glamorous, functional and modern.

My favorite modern websites for home furnishing are: westelm.com and dwell.

This design shown below is called Geomoetric Art Deco Medallion. It is my husband's favorite picture. Hmmm, I wonder why?

Traditional Tin Tile on the floor, now that is a change.
What will stencilease.com think of next? Usually tin tile is on the ceiling. Tin ceilings are back in style with new uses such as these and a wider selection of creative designs. For more on the history of tin ceilings, visit www.tinceiling.com/background/history.

I just love this look with the white room, black and white floor and scarlet red pillow.




Now here is another room shot where you wouldn't expect to see a large lattice stencil on the ceiling. But it works. For other cool room shots with wall stencils check out inlovelyheels.com/2010/05/cutting-edge-stencils-giveaway

Summer's here..time to GARDEN!




Today is the first really warm day we have had. I have just started thinking about my garden again. I love the idea of all of these cute garden stencils.





Topiaries are my favorite, especially in a big urn. I also love anything with lattice.

Stencilease.com has such a great selection of gardening stencils and other decorating ideas. Another cool site for stencil ideas is all-about-stencils.com. They have lots of arts and crafts ideas, too.


I never do any gardening with out my garden clogs.


The clay pots and watering can look so great together, too.





Wouldn't a full pergola look fantastic in any garden? And imagine a big pot of peonies flowing out of this apple barrel! Oh, the possibilities!

This new medallion stencil is another look that I like. How nice would it look in my family room? It would make it more formal, yet cozy! If you click on the link you can see all the other color options there are. I still haven't picked the color. I might do the salmon color!
