Ooooh. The Fir Tree wallpaper really makes the room, doesn’t it? I am SO happy with how it turned out, and it only took us about 4 hours from start to finish. This was my third wallpapering project, and by FAR the smoothest—thanks no doubt to this new wallpaper that allows you to put the glue directly on the wall. Miraculous!
Refinishing this little Jacobsen stool is another project on the (distant) horizon. I bought it three years ago and still haven’t gotten around to it! The look of the peeling paint and chips doesn’t bother me, but since this stool gets so much use (it’s far more comfortable that you’d think, though I’ll probably have to move a proper desk chair in here at some point) I don’t want the ply layers to get more damaged around the edges than they already are. Some wood patch, some sanding, and some high-gloss paint should do the trick.
I love all of the beautiful shapes and curves that objects in black & white rooms create. The simpler my living space is, the more I appreciate each item in it.
We dragged the refinished radiator back into the room today. I’m in love. We’ve never had functioning heat in this room! (Of course, it’s not connected yet—but it will be before next winter!)
Currently my favorite room in the house, yes.
