wrap your heart out *
could this wrapping paper be any cuter, and could i love it any more? i think not. i love wrapping paper in all forms- framed as artwork, used as drawer liner, decoupaged inside closests as wallpaper and even on furniture as an added pop. these designs from snow and graham were just too colorful and wonderful to pass up. only $2.50 a sheet right here. it's spring and i'm loving the colors everywhere- finally, a break from the grey winter!

These are gorgeous! I love the idea of using them as wallpaper in a closet. Anyone have advice on how to best apply to a wall?
well depends on the wall. i wouldn't suggest using it for a big main wall, but i've used it for closests before and it's fun (albeit a bit challenging).
you can use decoupage blue to just slather the stuff (well, smoothly of course) it's not perfect, but in a small space like a closet you dont notice details and this stuff is a heck of a lot cheaper than a roll of cole and son paper. ;)

I actually wrapped some gifts in two of their patterns a few weeks ago. Beautiful stuff. I felt almost bad having to cut it.
Hi - I love this wallpaper too!
How would you frame it as art? What kind of frame would you use?
Thanks!
oh it's easy! i do it all the time- i find it looks best when it has a border, color or plain depending on the pattern. i use light colored frames, the type that sort of sit off the wall a bit, nothing too flat. that way it's like this little gem of color and pattern that pops off the wall! i'm redoing mine so i'll post pics when i finish.

i recently covered a plain magnetic board from ikea in the teal fleur paper from snow and graham. the magnets still work, and it's a lot more beautiful than the plain white magnetic board. it makes my post it notes and to-do lists look a little prettier!
