#68 Wall Decals - Wooden +

Ever since I came across the set of wooden veneer wall decals that I bought for Master C, posted here, I've had a bit of a thing for them.
These eco friendly wooden veneer wall squares from Spot in Square are available in either orange, white (non toxic paint used) or as pictured - birch. Painted panels are $55 & the birch is $65, my favourite is easily the monkey.

Kinda cheating on the brief with these, but the following 'wood effect' wall decals from Couture Deco are pretty amazing, yes?
Easy to remove without damage, they can be applied on to walls, doors, ceilings, glass or furniture.

With the exception of the last design pictured which costs $118, they all cost $79(us)
As you have probably gathered, they are available in four colours. I would so love to see them in person, those tree swing set & safari designs are fairly brilliant & would make such a big impact in a room.
The only way they could be better would be if they were veneer panels!

Flock of Birds - Wood Wall Decals 

These hardwood veneer bird decals by Colleen Whiteley are reversible, one side in birch one in walnut & this 'racing car boy' veneer decal by melbourne based jewelry designer Geneine Honey is currently on sale from gallop lifestyle for $42(aud).
Bit sweet eh? Wish G.H had more in the wall decal range!

#29 Little Red Dream

As a child, I guess I had what most would consider 'boyish' tastes.
I loved playing with lego, digging holes to hide out in (weird?), looking for old bottles & cans etc left by miners in the gold rush, getting purposefully lost in the state forest behind our house just so I could try & figure out how to get home - luckily those activities always ended well & I avoided any bottom of a mine shaft incidents!
I loved catching frogs & yabbies (sans net) in the pond out the back of our house more than anything else in the world, & I loved matchbox cars.

I had two favourite cars.
The first was a black english taxi cab, on which the doors opened backwards.
The second, was a little red treasure, which now belongs to Master C.

#4 Scoot-tastic!


I am in awe. Sheer awesome at its very best.

The only drawback or downside that I can see here, is that I would certainly need 2 of them.
So that I may have my very own!
