When I first saw this photo at InvitingHome it didn’t do much for me-

but then I saw this next photo, which was a close up of the pink wall and I saw the soft allover damask pattern. I wish it showed up better in the big photo, it is lovely.

More pink,  from EasyLivingMagazineUK – not on walls but inside furniture cabinets.  I always seem to find the loveliest furniture on UK sites -

How about this from Wallover Designs -

or this lovely wall in a room I found on Brooke Giannetti’s blog,   Velvet and Linen .  Love the color combination of that damask pattern, and what about that trim work?

I failed to keep notes on which Decorative Finisher’s work  this is.  If any fellow artist’s recognize this work, PLEASE let me know so I can give proper credit – it is a lovely wall finish!

Used in wall panels -

This is another from Decorative Finisher Susan Bickford, of Singing Walls in Nashville -  from afar, you can’t really see the detail that is present (unlike the first example, I love this photo, even without realizing what else is there!)

now up close and personal!  This one gets my ‘SHIT HOT’ stamp of approval.  A troweled on finish, with allover stencil,  using metallic plasters -

or this by Anthony Pinkston, of Ornamentum . Maybe created using tape instead of a stencil, but still a beautiful allover design. Notice the dimensional tacks,  love it!

Now I bet you are ready to start creating yourself right?  Here are several great stencil sites that offer a nice selection of allover patterned stencils.  Be prepared to spend an average of  $50-$100 for a nice size allover stencil -
