When we moved to our new house, one of the things I was really looking forward to was using some of my own wallpaper designs in the house. I wanted to create an accent wall in the entrance, something that would instantly set the tone and welcome anyone coming in the front door.
I experimented with printing with linoprint directly onto white rolls of wallpaper, but wasn’t very happy with the result, so I scanned a few of my linoprint designs and ordered proofs in order to see the way the colours print, the scale and to feel the different kinds of wallpaper (the designs I sell on wallpaper through spoonflower are available as peel and stick removable wallpaper and water-activated paper wallpaper).
While we were working on painting and renovating in the rest of the house, I hung the samples in different places to see how they looked and how they held out. Then I chose one of the designs and worked on the digital file to clean up the lines, change the scale and colour (to match the paint in the hall), while still keeping the original linoprint look.
