Where To Find Wall Paper Online

Coastal Interiors, Home Blog Posts, InteriorsAnneke McConnell

With wallpaper on the rise as a go-to design option, whether it be an entire room, a statement wall, an upper half of a wall, and even for lining dresser drawers, the drawer face or back of a hutch, there are a variety of GREAT online resources to find the perfect wall covering for your home.

I'd recommend browsing Pinterest for inspiration to better determine what kind of look you are going for.  From a classic grasscloth wallpaper  (alternativeto a colorful pop of pattern, the options are truly endless.

Below are just a handful of great resources for you to find the perfect wall paper.

Β 

1. Anthropologie.

If you're looking for rich colors, beautiful designs and patterns, and quality, Anthropologie offers some stunning wall coverings. This one is a favorite and comes in 5 color options. Are you surprised as a coastal loving gal that Navy would be my preference? ;-)


2. Amazon.

The online site you can find anything and everything is no exception to wall paper.  I find so much of what I need on Amazon and can usually get it within two days with my Prime membership.  When I search for options, I usually look for Prime available with at least a 4-star rating and great return policy if it's not quite what I thought it would be.


3. Joss & Main.

When keeping a watchful eye, Joss & Main is perfect for scoring what you want for just a little less in a flash sale. The selection is plentiful without being overwhelming which is nice.


4. Serena & Lily.

Anything from Serena & Lily is sure to be high quality, with a coastal chic vibe to it.  The herringbone wallpaper below is a perfect example of what they have to offer.


5. WallPaper Direct.

If you're looking to browse through literally thousands of options and the thought of that does not overwhelm you, WallPaper Direct is your place to check out.  They have a pretty good search feature to narrow down the options for you. Just be sure to double check the type of wall paper (i.e. how it should be installed) and the return policy.


6. Nordstrom.

This one surprised me, but since I shop at Nordstrom's so much for clothing and accessories, I had to check just to see.  Their options are limited compared to others sites, but I loved the selection they offer, not to mention I've always loved their return policy for items that may not work out (this is HUGE when shopping online).


7. Wayfair.

Last of all, I'd recommend checking through the options for wall coverings on Wayfair.  Their selection is HUGE and they include quality brands like this one from Graham & Brown.

A few other's worth noting are Target, Overstock, and Hayneedle. There are a ton of great options out there!  If you're new to wall paper and installing it yourself, I'd suggest a removable peel an stick version to start with.

Above all, have fun with it! It's an amazing and affordable way to make a HUGE impact in the look and feel of a room.

Coastal Interiors: Cozy Reading Nook

Christmas, Coastal Interiors, Edesign, Holiday, Home Blog Posts, Interiors, Living RoomAnneke McConnell

Hi friends! Thanks so much for your amazing response to my first my first Gift Guide of the season supporting small business owners!  As retailers has "unleashed" the mass of their own guides and sale, even I was becoming overwhelmed. With that said, I'm happy to delve into all that and narrow things down for you!

Β 

As we approach the weekend and the holidays have officially kicked off, I have to say I'm LOVING this season and embracing the JOY of it all.  I'm choosing to be very intentional with my time and making room for family fun with less stress and more balance - I have to say this book, The Miracle Morning (have you heard of it?),  has been eye-opening for me in making this happen!

Β 

As for today's mini-design, I have a cozy reading nook in mind, curling up with that book, next to a fireplace, and enjoying a cup of hot cocoa.  Bliss am I right?!

Β 

The seasonal wreath adds a pop of green next to some of my favorite colors of navy, black, white and gold.  I'd love to know what stands out to you first and if you have any questions - ask away in the comments!

Where to Find Unique Traditional Rugs such as Kilim and Balouch Rugs

Coastal Interiors, Edesign, Home Blog Posts, InteriorsAnneke McConnell

With a little home updating in the works for our living room and entryway, I've been browsing around for the perfect rug (this one is a major contender!).   As much as I love my coastal striped rugs and natural sisal or jute rugs, I have an absolute LOVE for a unique traditional rug - my favorite is a balouch (or baluch) rug, like this one in our kitchen.

Now, I'll be the first to admit that when I was growing up I did not appreciate the beauty of these rugs.  Thankfully since then, I've found my way.  They are truly a work of art and add a ton of character and personality to a room!

If you're looking for the perfect traditional rug for your home with a bit of a boho, coastal, Pacific Northwest kind of vibe, one of the following may be a good option for you.  Remember you can always search for the specific size you need and the type of rug (such as balouch, kilim, heriz, serapi, etc.)

It never hurts to check eBay, your local craigslist, or etsy for the occasional unique find, but below I've listed some rugs I love from places that you will find unique, one of a kind rugs consistently.

God Bless!

Design of the Day: Coastal Cool Living Room

Coastal Interiors, Edesign, Home Blog Posts, Interiors, Living RoomAnneke McConnell

COMPLETE THE LOOK

Thanks for the love on yesterday's fall outerwear post!  I think since we are currently road tripping across a few states to Yellowstone currently (and it's pretty hot!), I was inspired to created a calm and cool design for the living room today. A design that is classic and will stand the test of time, with a bit of modern flair.

If you enjoy this design, please pin and share it for future reference!

I hate to blog and run, but I'm keeping things pretty short and sweet until our kiddos are back in school. Being full-time mama is my #1 priority this summer!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
