Have you ever tried panels of wallpaper, specifically grasscloth wallpaper panels? This is a simple but a great way to bring character to any room.
With this clients designer (Jans’ Design in Geneva, IL) some great grasscloth wallpaper was selected for us to install. A grasscloth to work with the existing colors of the room. The first day is always the toughest as we had to measure out the room to fit the layout design. With the use of a laser level, tape measure and a roll of tape we were armed and ready to install.

After getting things where they needed to be we masked off the wall then primed the areas to be wallpapered and installed the clients grasscloth.

With the wallpaper installed now, we moved onto the decorative trim. Originally we painted the trim an off-white to match the ceiling but once up, it just stuck out too much. With the trained eye of Jan, a new color was selected, then she picked a glaze color to match the grasscloth wallpaper.

With everything installed, we took one close up to show the wall covering, trim, and glaze. All is well, great color choice! We look forward to our next project with Jan, (you should too).

We also took a short video of how we glazed the trim should you want to see that as well.
