Wallpaper is by no means a new "trend." It's been back in style for a few years now. That's why I'm surprised I've just now discovered Studio Nommo - which has a gorgeous collection. I have designer Ashley from
*i'm smitten* to thank. She designed one of my favs, the "Foxy" wallpaper.
The card from *i'm smitten* that was reinterpreted into wallpaper.

Below are some other designs from Studio Nommo that I like


I've been liking feathers a lot lately



This one's titled "Things on my desk" Great for a home office!



Love the pomegranates!
