Great Wall of China



How FUN is this trompe l'oeil ("trick of the eye" in French) wallpaper?



It's a china-lovers dream! I could see this paper lining the walls of a perfectly divine breakfast nook with an upholstered bench, sweet farm table and show-stopper light fixture...can you see it?

You can find this paper, and many other unique (handpainted, embroidered, trompe l'oeil) wallpapers and home accessories at Parisian shop The Collection. Right...Parisian...so not exactly close by for those in the U.S.A., but lucky for us, they have a great online store and they will ship internationally.

Major shout-out to my jet-setting friend Esther who passed along this beautiful find...she has just returned to NYC after her latest stint living in Paris and had seen this shop in person and testified to the beauty of its wares. Thanks Esther!

  2. Agree with Beth here -- it'd be great in a butler's pantry!

    Also, checked out the online store and it's great! The wallpaper reminds me of Anthropologie and it's very Parisian in the best possible way.
