I have a wonderful tip if you are going to pound a nail on a wallpapered wall. Before you hammer the nail, take an exact knife and cut a small v into the wallpaper. Lift up the flap and pound your nail into the exposed wall. When you want to remove the picture at a later time, just pull out the nail, bring the wallpaper flap down, and add a small dab of glue to the paper. Your nail hole is covered without damaging the wallpaper! So simple and easy!

I love the room. I'd be interested to see it again in about a year. My guess is the drapes and mirror on the armoire will be different as you find something you like better or just can't help yourself wanting change. I grew up in the antique business, so my home has constantly evolved, as yours does. I think that's why I enjoy your channel so much. We both have a love of beautiful things but have limited budgets. This forces creativity and out of the box thinking. You often amaze me with your abilities. I'm at a point in life where I don't have the ability to make major changes to items I buy and have very limited space, so I really enjoy seeing what you create each week. You are always my first stop on Mondays. Keep up the good work, and God bless.

But after I saw your paint technique, you have converted me. It looks amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have never, ever found a $2.00 table SCORE! Most people would pass it up because of the work, but not you! Your framed dried florals over the bed are perfect against the wallpaper. . Love the oval mirror but would have placed the hook on the inside of the door ... upside down. that way you can loop ribbon up and over the door to hang a wreath or mirror or art, without putting a hole in that beautiful armoire. You have a great eye for color, composition and balance. The unique shelf is styled perfectly. But , I must ask, is there a link to that amazing comforter? The color and texture are beyond gorgeous!!!
