^it's quite soft, chrissy
i think it would go anywhere too
for me, it would be the bed.. either the curtains in that room or
And you could also just stretch a smaller piece on to canvas, for a little 'chaos' in a person's home rather than allover pattern

i think you're on to something here..
smaller doses would definitely look best with this pattern..
stretching it over canvas the way oiltrash suggested in the interior decor thread is an interesting idea..

i think this would look great on some pillows as well..

yes, chrissy he's a great wealth of ideas
actually i made a mistake i wanted to say stretch the fabric over a stretcher bar or frame. like in painting, you stretch canvas over these wooden bars... you can also stretch it over a board like mat board... It's just so the edges are clean when you're finished tacking it down

shinkoyo sister I love the one with the red sofa! It's a very well-decorated room. The wall doesn't take away from any of the other objects... gorgeous carpets and floor too
The one with the teacup is also cute mysterious.. *swoon* Thanks for posting!

^^that would definitely work too gius!!
i like your idea because then the fabric would also have a little "give" if that makes sense..
and for some reason i like that

I think they're all from between 1952 to 1973... I would still like those shape tree ones though
