Rapture and Wright {fabric + wallpaper}

I'm always looking for new fabric and wallpaper so the second I came across this photo in the March issue of Livingetc magazine, I had to learn more about the headboard. The fabric is called Birds and Butterflies and is hand printed by Rapture and Wright, a company based in the UK that I'd not heard of before.


The headboard itself is custom made by The Dormy House, but I can't stop thinking about how easy it would be to DIY this idea with plywood (or an old door), cotton batting, your favorite fabric, a staple gun, and some mounting hardware for the wall (easy video here on You Tube). It's also amazing to me just how great this particular print looks in person as I don't think I would have given it a second glance if only seen on their website. Livingetc really grabbed my attention with birds and butterflies - I love the serene neutral space with a pop of black and yellow. Heaven!
