    DOESN’T THIS MAKE YOU WANT TO BE 10 AGAIN — when no one questions why you would want a bedroom that is sweet sweet sweet?

    The wallpaper is Lily of the Valley by Thibaut, and it’s available in 7 colorways – including yellow, light blue, even coral. I love the soft pastels the best, I think…. This is so perfectly vintage.

      All of this talk of wallpaper is starting to tempt me. I remember similar wallpaper in a cousin’s bedroom back in the 60s — it had sprigs of lilacs. Very dreamy.

      Yes, this one makes me never ever want to get out of bed.

      That brings back memories of my girlhood bedroom. It had pale yellow wallpaper with a subtle basket weave pattern and daisy’s scattered across the pattern. My mom bought matching fabric and made pinch-pleat drapes. I had a white/yellow/green knitted “ripple” zig zag pattern afghan on the bed. I wish I had pictures. *sigh*

      My 60′s bedroom (I was around 10) was wallpapered with white background & covered with lilac bushes/trees. I had lilac colored bedspread, canopy, & curtains. My favorite color. I wish I had pictures, too. The pink lily of the valley is beautiful!

      I have no shame about my love of pink – I would happily put this wallpaper up today! And I’m 31 years older than 10. (Also, my livingroom upholstery is pink).
