Pretty Little Green Things

We’re getting ready to do some major construction in our apartment.  While I’m not excited about the dust, the mess and having to move out, I am incredibly excited that I’ll finally get to wallpaper in our entry!  I’m a huge fan of all types of wallpaper but have never had it in my own house.  It’s about time.

As an interior designer I have access to a lot of sources, but even for me it’s still sometimes overwhelming to search out just the right thing.  Fortunately, there’s a fantastic resource called the Wallpaper Collective.  Founded Cindy Weil, the Wallpaper Collective is a one stop shop for beautiful, artisanal and super hip papers.  Perfect for that one special spot or an entire room.  She’s even arranged the website so you can see at a glance which papers are eco-friendly.  I’m sold.

I’ve picked a few of my favorite eco-friendly wallpapers for you, but there are a TON more online.  Even if you’re not on the lookout for wallpaper right now, the images are inspirational all on their own.  Enjoy!

This is my absolute favorite pattern.  Gorgeous!  Kaleido Gold from Jocelyn Warner.

This wallpaper is a beautiful combination of a feminine pattern in a cool color scheme.  Cascade Silver also from Jocelyn Warner.

For something a bit more modern, try this Elizabeth Moonbeam paper from Madison & Grow.

There are lots of graphic wallpapers if you’re looking for modern.  Delight in Water/Peppercorn from Mod Green Pod.

For those of you who like more texture in your wallpaper, there’s Paper Mills.  I couldn’t pick just one so here’s a selection of my favorites.  Pattern names from left to right: Little Havana, Pablo, Nono Channel, Bark, Tania, & Native.

And for the kids or the kids at heart, here’s a super cute elephant border.  They also have monkeys and ducks too.  Frederick Elephant in Red from Bholu.
