i’ve written about british designer jocelyn warner before, but i wanted to add some of the gorgeous new photographs that are up on her website- they really give you a good feel for her wallpapers (that now come in lighting form, too!). her wallpapers are fresh, modern, elegant and definitely worth the splurge if you’re lucky enough to be able to wallpaper something in your home. i personally can’t wait to own something so i can wallpaper a room, i’m dying to wallpaper these days- there are so many phenomenal options out there.

jocelyn’s designs are full of sophisticated patterns and modern designs, accented by bold colors and neutral/metallic options for those who like a little less drama on the walls. click here to view jocelyn’s entire collection- it’s just stunning and these new photos really do the pieces justice. enjoy!

[i’ll be out tomorrow, but back on sat and sunday for some garden posts and fresh new material. in the meantime i posted two days worth of posts today so hopefully they’ll tide everyone over. oh! and don’t forget to enter the fred flare/d*s spring spruce up contest!! xo, d*s]

this idea could not be any cooler. i saw this post on frida’s blog, husmusen and she was kind enough to translate so we could take a look. here’s the skinny from frida: “Mc Donalds arranged a design competition in Sweden where people could send in designs for coffee mugs (paper) that will be launched this summer. They later selected a few of them and let people vote on their webpage. 3 winners have now recieved 20,000 SEK as a scholarship, their designs will be printed this summer and one of them will also have their mug/design made in porcelain by the Swedish manufacturer Gustavsberg”. i love the idea. so, so fun. there are tons of great designs to check out, so click here to see them for yourself. [thanks, frida!]

this just came to my inbox without much explanation, but i’m intrigued. nursing room o+ is a collection by nika zupanc debuting in milan this spring. i’m assuming it’s an “ironic” look at motherhood and the pieces involved in it. when i have more info, i’ll post it. but this is one heck of a modern (and totally goth) rocker. click here to see nicka zupanc’s site. [it’s certainly not everyone’s cup of tea]
