I love over the top wallpaper, so I decided to do a series dedicated to fab wallpaper designs with a bit of bling… and to me, the ultimate blingy wallpaper is flocked wallpaper. Perfect to pair with mini birds. This is number one in my mixed flock… the spotted pardalote. I intended them to be hung together like the flying ducks of the 1970s, but they went to separate homes. Maybe next time I will paint them separately but frame them together.
