Installing Morrigan Old Blue Wallpaper on a Powder Room in NYC 10065


It’s possible that being less than a block from Central Park, with its blooming Annabelle hydrangeas, anise hyssop, Arkansas bluestar, clematis and other flowers, inspired this homeowner to have us wallpaper two powder rooms with floral patterns. While one might think the powder room comes from women freshening their faces from a hard-pack compact, it really originated from aristocrats needing a private place to powder their opulent wigs in the 17th century.
Wallpapering a powder room is an exceptionally challenging project. It’s one thing to wallpaper a wall — that flat, rectangular, vertical expanse characteristically going from ceiling to floor, meticulously matching the print with every strip. It’s quite another thing to figure out varying lengths that go down to a vanity with skinny spaces on a side, run behind a toilet, around mirrors and among wires for sconces – all while matching these charming, floral patterns.
