Hi friends! Wow. It feels like it has been a long time since I sat to chat with you about the kitchen renovation and let’s just blame that on a pause with contractors, the holidays, and the creative rut I was in. Now we are all hands on deck and big decisions needs to be made like trim, paint colors, and wallpaper. Wallpaper is a big part of our home’s story that we want to bring back into her with the renovations. During the renovation of this 1800s farmhouse we have found layers of wallpaper from throughout the years and it makes me so happy to see them to think of the stories they could tell. Before us, the last time wallpaper was put on was most likely in the 80s or early 90’s and since the beginning of owning this house, I knew in our more “major renovations” and not our “temporary cozy” as I called it, I wanted to add life and character through wallpaper. We are FINALLY at that point!

Since dreaming in 2017 of adding wallpaper, you can imagine I’ve saved a lot of wallpapers and have fallen in love with many, so now is the hard part, I need to choose. Or WE need to choose. The problem with the “we” is that Jose loves any wallpaper I pick out. Well, not any, but we have already weeded those out. Now here we are and this isn’t even all of them. The wallpaper I originally fell in love with and that I actually have on hand is this one [HERE]. I think it’s the one. Pears are very special to our story here on the farm. The colors work so well with our Aga stove and our kitchen in general, and it’s such a beautiful option. I just want to make sure that it’s THE ONE. So, I am sharing a bunch of wallpaper options I love with you today and I’ll have some voting on my socials today that you can help me with my choice with. I hope my wallpaper selections help you if you are on the hunt for some pretty paper and I want to say THANK YOU for your patience in our kitchen renovation progress as I’ve had to practice patience as well. In the end, I know it will be worth it & the process will be part of the story of our time here on White Cottage Farm. xx
