Rough surface ceramic and ancient brick
Getdecorating.com
Stylish and fashionable, with a little imagination faux finishes can be downright fun.
In this comfy wine cellar, an ancient brick wall appears to be peeking out from where a more modern covering of plaster and paint was applied.
Rough surface ceramic tiles used on the counter create a visual bond between genuine and faux.
Enchanted Land
Hallway to an Enchanted Land
Like a doorway to a magical land, this hallway appears to morph into a softly lit field of tall grasses and waving bulrushes.
Birds aren't the only ones to land on the branches of two majestic trees hidden just out of sight. When it's dark, fairies too flutter across the landscape -- but they are shy creatures often only visible to very young eyes.
It's always summertime in this whimsical orchard.
Trees are laden with bunches of luscious, juicy cherries -- one has even fallen on the curtain where it now holds back the fabric to better showcase the rich texture of the scarlet wall behind it.
