Grandma's resplendent bedroom


otterine

I think the black wallpaper works well in this room only because the room is so large and all of the furnishings are painted varying shades of ivory. I didn't want a matched set of furniture for this room. I preferred that the ensemble be cherished pieces purchased over the years.

There was very little done in the way of structure changes, but this room was definitely a challenge on many levels. First, there were a lot of angles from the roof structure, which made for interesting wallpaper application. Second, since I had raised the ceiling height in the parlor but left the kitchen ceiling in its original position, the door from the hallway was too far off the ground to be a believable step. And, third, the swinging window pieces from the original kit were in poor condition (the nature of old diecut parts) and I wasn't yet a whiz at the scroll saw to replicate them.
