Let's Make Life Awesome
Sometimes you need a little challenge to get your creative juices flowing. A few weeks ago, I was in the midst of redoing my kids’ bathroom (still working on it, too!), and I was having one of those days where everything just felt blah and boring. I couldn’t shake the feeling that I needed to take a little time off to focus on something different. So, Emma and I hopped in the truck and went to Home Depot, where we walked the aisles looking for inspiration.

Today, I’m launching a new weekly series on my blog called Feature Wall Friday!
My favorite part of any room transformation is always installing a feature wall. I love the element of surprise and creativeness that goes into making a wall or two stand out. The rooms that wow me generally always have an accent wall of some sort, and I’ve been saving bookmarks of great rooms I see online long before Pinterest even existed. There is so much more you can do with a feature wall other than painting it a different color than the rest of the room, a la Trading Spaces.
So, each Friday, I’m going to share a great feature wall with you. Some may be put together by interior designers while others may be from creative DIY bloggers. At any rate, I’ll share ideas with you on how I think you could install a similar wall in your own home.
Our first feature wall comes from none other than Anthropologie. As you most likely know, Anthro has some of the most unique and stunning window displays in the retail world today. The styling for their catalog shoots are no exception. In this image, Anthro is selling its Illusorio Console, but I can’t get past my love of the black chalkboard paint wall to actually “see” the console.
