I am a serious animal lover, and that extends into my decorating tastes as well. My heart skips a beat anytime I spy a critter in a fabric motif– even snakes! Although I’m less fond of those in person. I especially love the birds in chinoiserie wallpaper, any sort of creatures in a nursery scheme, and of course those Scalamandre zebras that graced Margot Tenenbaum’s walls. This month I rounded up some of my favorite snapshots of nature-inspired fabrics and wallpapers in decor.
