If it is, you can switch the doors to something else when you get tired of them. Isn’t that a Pax (from Ikea)? If it is, you can switch the doors to something else when you get tired of them.

If you're unhappy with the doors, maybe that would help? I don't know how much of a pain it would be to turn them around though.

That's what I would do. Low cost, pretty, nice. A nice rice paper with swirly fibers (Art supply store) glued onto those somewhat cold looking glass to keep it light, but to soften the whole effect.

Really. Sigh. I ordered a bunch of samples from Ferm a while back (good memory, Jaimie!), but none of them turned out to be what I'd hoped for when I initially saw them online. But yeah, I don't do the decal thing. Not for me. I have a bunch of the Orla Kiely wallpaper from my vestibule left over, maybe it's enough for that wall. I'm just procrastinating having to do the necessary math to find out! <img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2385/2256416410_25f7ea93f4_m.jpg"> Oh, how I wish I could afford an entire wall of Nama Rococo wallpaper, Kelly.

I'm not a decal person, personally. I prefer the permanence of wallpaper, or even just painting patterns directly on the wall. This weekend I need to check and see if I have enough left over of the Orla Kiely wallpaper I used in the vestibule to do one wall in the dressing room.
