Fashion has introduced an abundance of pattern.
We can thank the the huge influence of the green movement for encouraging fashion to take a cue from the environment for design motifs, and color in fabrics and paper.
Florals, leaves, tree branches, butterflies and birds are often presented in a silhouette with a layered effect to create a shadow.

Hi Gina -
Thank you so much for your visit to my blog! I don't know how it took me so long to get back to you!
You've done a beautiful site here. I'm crazy for wallpaper. I think it would be a fabulous creative outlet to design wallpaper patterns or textile design. I could spend hours perusing wallpaper books - and HAVE!!!
Hope you make it to Lake Como, a place I've always wanted to go. Take a look at j de Santa Fe's current blog post if you haven't seen it - she's planning a trip there this summer. All the best,
Catherine
Gina - thanks so much for your most thoughtful comment on my Lake Como post ... . it's always been a dream trip for me: here's hoping we can both make it a reality - soon!
Your wonderful blog is certainly a great way to keep up with the World of Wallpaper -- - I shall return.... .

I used to live on a tiny island south of Sarasota (Cabbage Key- between Boca Grande & Captiva)... loved coming to shop on St. Armands Circle.
I love the idea of doing wallpaper as a back splash in a kitchen instead of tile.
I am saving that one for my file.
Thank you for the inspiration!

I LOVE each of these, especially the bird ones! I don't even like birds that much, but these are so beautiful! Like Brooke, I think it's a great idea to use it as a back splash. Gives you something fun to look at if you don't have a window! :)
