Here’s something not necessarily new but pretty interesting. Nouvelles USA offers wall decor stickers in all sorts of designs. From flowers to animals to frames, they have a collection of large stickers for an interesting alternative to the usual framed art. You need a bit of your own creativity to place them on the wall…and probably some confidence during the process since unfinished it could become intimidating and you may start to think it was a bad idea…but those with a good eye or who want a pattern just like on the picture could really have fun with them.

I particularly like the Black Baroque and Garland designs…but I was thinking of a slightly different purpose for them…At some point in the near future, we need to start repainting the shutters on our house. We’ll keep them the same dark green that they are now but we aren’t crazy about the flower-ish design on there now. We’ve looked around for stencils but haven’t really found anything we really like so far. But I’m thinking a rustic looking rose like the ones they have in these packages could be really nice since there are roses growing all over the place here and many of them seem to be quite old. Unfortunately, this company only seems to sell them in quantities of 12 sheets and I don’t imagine I would need more than one for the stencil…but at least now I have the idea and can start looking around for stencils that might be along this fashion…or can find a pattern I like so I can design my own.
