The wallpaper is a reprint of a 1914 wallpaper from http://www.puppenstubentapeten.com/epages/61540032.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/61540032/Categories
The pink nursery paper was a reprint of an old dollshouse wallpaper from the same site.
The wallpapers are printed on the back of old rolls of wallpaper and so are easy to work with because they are thick enough to hide some of the imperfections you find in an old house. They were also one of the few options I could find that was tall enough for these rooms, the rooms being 12.5 inches tall. The other advantage is that for most papers you can order any length you want. I ordered 100cm, enough to cover the three walls.
I still need to do the floors as you can see.
The fire places are original to the house. They are rather large and cumbersome but it is part it's history.
On the fireplace are some vintage vases I have managed to find.
The little dog I picked up at a local antique shop. Isn't he cute.
The globe is a vintage Chad Valley .
I made the table the globe is standing on.
One side of The Laurels wallpapered.
I love your wallpaper and that little table you made is very nice! You must have that good feeling we get when we accomplish what we set out to do. Good for you!

Hi Melli
DeleteI'm just on my lunch break at the moment and got home to find a package with Edward in it on my doorstep. He is just adorable. His head wasn't on which gave me a bit of a fright but then I realised I could just press it on. I will post some pictures of him on my blog tonight. I agree with you about pink. It certainly is far from my favourite colour but it had birds on it and I love birds. I'm still gathering ideas for the Christmas project but will post a picture of the box the scene will go in tonight as well.
I love the blue wallpaper-so pretty!
