Texture


Texture's the thing here...it motivated me to use letterpress illustrations (cut from a 2011 desk calendar from the Paper Source), and a new sheet of DCWV scrapbook paper for a lemon yellow and gray backdrop. The flooring is adhesive cork, which has a nice but subtle texture. The "tub" is actually an olive wood "nibble" bowl from Crate & Barrel--textbook texture!













Credits: Tub, platform, and planter are all repurposed items from Crate & Barrel; console is PRD; chair is Reac; side table is miniatures.com; towels are Lundby; sink is a swap from Oese; fixture is Barbie by Jonathan Adler; artwork is Paper Source. Accessories are Re-ment, AG Minis, and dollhouse show finds.

The time it took me: 22 minutes

    1. Gracias! Me gusta el amarillo del papel, con el gris. Bonito contraste con el tazón de fuente de madera (o bañera!).

  6. Love the artwork and wallpaper. That yellow is so happy and inviting. Love the tub. I just realized there is a paper source in my neck of the woods (40 minutes away). I may have to make a run and see what I can find. :D
