Pattern Inspiration - Paisley

Fabulous paisley cakes at carriescakes.com and ameliascakes.com - here and here.

I'm continuing the pattern inspiration series today with the paisley pattern. As with so many patterns, the ideas and sources for incorporating it into your life are many but I've tried to include a variety (some decor related and some not) to inspire you.

The way they used just one very large paisley wall decal in this room feels very modern...

Cutting Edge Stencils

Designer Kathryn Chaplow used a bold black and white paisley wallpaper in the foyer of this colorful home. She used the green urn to pull in the accent color that you see throughout the rest of the home.

Designer Angie Hranowsky found these great tub chairs, repainted them with white lacquer and had them reupholstered in this fabulous paisley fabric. Love it!
