In the new house (name pending…), my impulsive reaction to the various “country rose” wallpapers/borders was, “Ick – strip it! Paint solid colours!”
But I found myself surprised by the number of people who would perhaps hope to feel transported to a bygone era, and have been revisiting some wall-covering pages that I’d bookmarked when Harrington House was first acquired.
I found this article – from this year – and figured I’d share it with any interested readers. Bradbury wallpapers are nothing short of exquisite, but this article give some delightful insight into the company’s namesake.
Enjoy!
