Oh, I love that bathroom tile! I also live in Richmond, VA so it makes my heart soar to know that they are still houses here that haven’t been changed. It gives me hope.

Hi Chris, you are in the right place – I am the #1 fan of vintage wallpaper. Here’s my post on the three main sources. In addition, Bradbury & Bradbury (bradbury.com) makes nice vintage reproduction paper; for a bathroom talk to them about the special coating to help combat moisture.

Also, just search Vintage Wallpaper and you will see other, related posts. Welcome.

I finally found someone else with the same 50′S plastic pale green tile bathroom. I’ve been having a hard time trying to figure out what to do about the wall colors above the tile. I saw the wall paper you have and guess i need to go in that direction. I initially painted it white but it doesn’t do much for me. If anyone knows a good place to start looking for vintage wall paper i’d love to know.

I have the same Aqua Green tile bathroom. Due to plumbing repairs some of the tiles where removed. Does anyone know which company manufactured the tile, and where I can find it?

I checked with Daltile and they don’t have the color.

Hi R.N., the wallpaper is original vintage. There are a number of sources to search for similar styles – and maybe you also will find extra rolls of this one – but for sure, a long shot. Look at my category “Wallpaper” to see posts on places and companies from which to buy vintage and vintage-style wallpaper.

I always thought that maybe I was the only one who thought like this and I’m so glad to have discovered a site where there are other people like me! Beautiful houses!
