I really love the pink and aqua design with the birds for the powder room but 70.00 USD is high! I am going to hit up eBay and the Retrorenovation links for sure. <br /><br />Also, why is it that most of our vintage wants are so expensive?! Not fair!Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18374686921796483382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7252080759994565579.post-47088076369749098602010-09-05T07:32:59.307-07:002010-09-05T07:32:59.307-07:00Those wallpapers are GREAT!

Our walls are all neutral colors, and hubby is much opposed to wallpaper unfortunately, so I did the next best thing, took some fabulous mid-century barkcloth curtains (aquas, pinks, brown and cream, sort of a french park theme with fountains and lamposts....) and made them into a shower curtain for our powder room. They look awesome, and can easily be changed if I ever, (unlikely) fall out of love with that color combo.<br /><br />SueSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07406331473395339199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7252080759994565579.post-61196839960783192322010-09-04T07:40:33.254-07:002010-09-04T07:40:33.254-07:00I wish I could help you out with where to find som...I wish I could help you out with where to find some cheaper wallpaper and flooring. It could be tough, if you truly want to use the real thing.<br /><br />If you're willing to be patient, I honestly think you could snatch up a good deal on eBay. Or if you go to enough estate sales, you might stumble upon an even better deal. <br /><br />I'm all for getting good deals - but sometimes when you find something that you fall in love with, like those wonderful wallpaper patterns you picked out - it's worth the splurge!Sarsaparillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14517012188376869524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7252080759994565579.post-40592724630425799332010-09-04T00:27:03.138-07:002010-09-04T00:27:03.138-07:00I have no experience with vintage wallpaper but a ...I have no experience with vintage wallpaper but a friend of mine is just about to use some that she found, which was originally used in a nightclub in the 40s in London it is sooooo amazing, I'll let you know how she gets on. However I do know she's doing a lot of tests on a small amount to check that the modern wall paper paste doesn't make the colour run in the very valuable wall paper!!<br /><br />I'm off to look at that website you mentioned about and dream of being rich :o)Straight Talking Mama!https://www.blogger.com/profile/13010105224878943505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7252080759994565579.post-54280790881923178152010-09-03T17:15:31.620-07:002010-09-03T17:15:31.620-07:00Ooh I would like those wallpapers in my bathroom. ...Ooh I would like those wallpapers in my bathroom.
