Manhattan Wallpaper Install

The humble artichoke ranks number one of all veggies in antioxidant count, according to a study by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture. Additionally, it is a good source of fiber, vitamin C, magnesium, protein, vitamins and minerals. Each one is really a bud in the thistle family, as noted by the little thorn in each leaf which softens with cooking. And if you want to know if you can find artichokes in wallpaper, take a gander at this novel interior. Following a dining room and kitchen remodeling project, the homeowner wished to spice up the entry.

Imagine our surprise and delight to find our job entailed installing wallpaper with artichokes in misty gray and cotton white on a background of deep brick red. Wallpaper can be more economical in the long-term than paint, but hey, there’s no disputing the element of interest here. Some of the challenges in working with wallpaper include cutting, pasting and matching patterns. We use very sharp utility knives, changing out blades as needed, and are cautious not to over-paste, a common error. Our team finds lining up the patterns a somewhat stimulating challenge. You just never know where experienced tradesmen find their kicks. These homeowners are not keeping up with the Joneses. They are the Joneses, raising the bar, setting the standard with this memorable wallpaper.
