The closets have been framed and sheet rocked and the new window has been installed. I primed and painted the walls in a Matte finish using Benjamin Moore's Decorators White. The hallway is long and narrow so I wanted to do something below the new window. I thought of painting it a separate color but that seemed boring. I wanted some kind of visual interest against the white walls. Looking through Dwell Magazine I saw an ad for mid century wallpaper. I checked out the site for Bradbury & Bradbury,
http://www.bradbury.com/sixties.html, and ordered a bunch of samples. They were all awesome, but I finally decided on the The Mod Generation, Grete pattern. Having never hung wallpaper I was a bit nervous about the project. I followed the instructions and was patient and careful in the prep. To my surprise it went on without any problems. I am now considering wallpaper for the boys bedrooms.
