It is available on orla kiely’s UK website, you just have to pay the overseas shipping which is like $50.
I just ordered three rolls for my powder room and it came in less than a week. It’s beautiful!

I LOVE that wallpaper has made a comeback…and in a more modern form!

Lately I’ve been obsessing over Orla Kiely’s Flower Blossom wallpaper in Teal that was available via Anthropologie in ’07. Much to my dismay, I’ve scoured the internet and cannot locate even a single roll for sale (my goal is to paper just one wall in my powder room). Is anyone willing to share great wallpaper resources that I could check? Or, do any of the Design*Sponge visitors have a roll they’d like to sell? :)

Thanks again!

I love drink trolleys, bar carts, I have four. The art deco ones go for about $100, but mine cost under $10 each, I have two wooden ones, a chrome and glass like the above but I did not have to take out any nasty woodgrain. I do have one that does have the wood grain though, plus I have just purchased a 50s display cabinet in the same nasty wood veneer but also lots of mirror and glass. To be honest, I do not like all these crazy patterns I’m seeing here in before and after, I wonder how it fits in with the rest of the decor. I am looking to use a black gloss of some kind to match the chrome and glass more to the art deco era. I’m decorating a 1955 beach cottage long term rental that holds my vintage comic icon collection,. it’s been fun. I’ll have to show some b and a photos soon.
