This book ROCKS! Amazing projects that I can't wait to start in our new house. Of course, am still trying to figure out where to get all these 'scrap pieces of wallpaper' (that aren't nasty country-style remnants!)

beautiful book, beautiful projects, but then again, the authors had access to spectacular wall paper. Lots of ideas, worth a look. However i've seen quite of few ideas already on one of the million diy craft blogs/pintrest.

Clever and If I had a staircase I would be wallpapering it right now.
