In this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of my moody back bedroom makeover where a bold vision met a full on wallpaper fiasco. This small bedroom, tucked in the back of my 1930s house, had hidden water damage and more than a few surprises. But with a little patience (and a lot of glue), I transformed it into a cozy forest inspired retreat with deep green walls, floral wallpaper on the ceiling, and rich vintage textures.
I used Benjamin Moore Essex Green for the board and batten and installed moody floral peel-and-stick wallpaper across the upper walls and ceiling. Then… it all fell down. Literally.
If you love cozy interiors, dark academia vibes, vintage cottage design, and watching DIY renovations with a few unexpected twists, you’ll love this episode.
