Last week I’d said I wanted to have the wallpaper put up by this first check in. And… it didn’t happen. I guess to give myself credit, I did pick up some slack off the other weeks.
Friday evening I started to exhibit the signs of a friendly stomach bug. Yeah… All the time I’d thought I’d be dedicating to wallpapering turned into recovery time. But I am better and I’m ready to get this task done!
Progress on My Global Boho Dining ROOM Refresh
The wallpaper I’m using for the space is Descano provided by Wallpaper Bohlevard. If you’ve been here for a while, you may vaguely remember my trying to narrow down what wallpaper patter. I wanted in this space. Yes, this same space. Haha.
Instead of putting up the wallpaper, I found myself collection accessories from about the house. And I picked up a few treasures from Amazon and Cost Plus World Market.
I plan on using these really reflective and boho mandala tapestries I bought through Amazon as the curtains in this space. I really don’t need curtains, but I feel like they add a layer of coziness to a space that is unmatched with any othere decorating.
From World Market, I picked up some picture frames, a lamp, a pouf, a pillow (that may already have found a home elsewhere in the house ?), a lantern and some hanging decor.
And the main three pieces that are really pulling the color scheme of this space together is the Idalia print by Juniper Briggs on minted.com, the pink and green Ghanaian handmade basket I picked up at the Virginia coastal home and Garden show, and the ceramic bowl I thrifted… some measure of time that’s a while ago but I can’t remember specifically.
The chairs you’re getting a peek of are from LampsPlus. I love that they’re upholstered yet still very in vibe with the mid-century feel I wanted some of the pieces in the room to have.
Am I on schedule? Ehhhhh…. I’ll know better next week ?.
In between updates, I did share a collection of lights that are perfect over a dining table in a bohemian style space. If you missed that:

that wallpaper is really pretty and would look AMAZING in your space. I also like the curtains, it is really pretty. Those chairs add a nice flair to the space and would complement all the natural elements nicely. I cannot wait to see how the wallpaper looks!
Monica Benavidez says
Those tapestries are AMAZING! Wish I had somewhere to put one in my apartment.
Rachael @ This is our Bliss says
I’m dying to see this wallpaper up! Loving look and feel of the space so far with the elements you shared! And I totally agree, that curtains just add that “something factor” to a room that other accessories aren’t able to.
