+1 vote to keep the wood in natural tone and adjust the wall color
I agree
agreed
Green grey with natural wood ❤
white if it doesn't clash witih the colors in the adjoining rooms.
I agree
Keep the natural wood color, change the paint color.
I agree, natural wood color is beautiful.
Definitely! That natural wood color is wonderful. So timeless and beautiful.
OMG DO NOT PAINT THAT BEAUTIFUL NATURAL WOOD. JUST OSMO IT, Billy Petherick on the Pethericks used it on NATURAL wood in the convent kitchen, BEAUTIFUL and waterproof,
I agree, but go a shade darker then your chosen colour. I would shalack wood first because it will change colour.
Agreed! The wood is so pretty.
Ask Benoit if he has any scarps of the same wood. Create test samples with the wood scraps. That is the best way to know how each finish will look like on the beautifully crafted bespoke cabinet.
Good idea! 😀
Great idea.
I prefer the less busy fabric with more of the white background. It feels more modern and matches the style of other parts of the house. Light and bright against all the dark walls.
what Heidi said
Exactly my thoughts.
I like the multi-color fabric for the headboard, it's richer and more elegant. Also allows more colors to be introduced with other furnishings.
I love the darker fabric it is beautiful against the gorgeous walls
And you could use the lighter monochrome print on lamp shades! That would be gorgeous!
I agree I like the darker colors for the fabric. I also like the light wood on the vanity.
Yes. I have a preference for simplicity in design. Yet, I see it that way too "richer and more elegant".
Yes to the darker/ multi colours for the headboard! The other versions could be for cushions, but I'd say if you're having curtains that darker version would be perfect there too. Can't wait to see the finished result...❤
Change the paint color. Once you stain you can’t “unstain” and the wood is so beautiful.
Yes! You could one day change it all again
you can definitely sand back a stained wood to it's natural colour. Specially if it's oil base, the stain sits on the surface of the wood. It's not absorbed deep under the surface. A medium grit (80-100) and a bit of elbow grease or an orbital sander will do the job.
Anna! I’m telling you, you should really consider finding a vendor to partner with and start producing and selling your wall paper product’s. Many people would love to have your designs in their home because of how passionate you take your work. ❤️❤️
Spoonflower allows submissions from anyone and gives commissions as customers select your design.
Bathroom: keep the wood color, change the wall color
Bedroom: the fabric design with the two blue tones
Cant wait to see it all finished!
Sailboat owner here! I definitely would not want to paint that beautiful wood vanity base either (Benoit is a true craftsman!). I highly recommend a few coats Epifanes Clear Gloss Varnish (which is really polyurethane) to waterproof it (and as a bonus has UV protection, since the bathroom has a lot of natural light), followed by a few coats of Epifanes Wood Finish Matte on top to tone done the gloss (which is brilliant because you do not have to sand between coats if you reapply within 72 hours.) It's made for boats, and a great product!
I choose the one with less color and more white space. #2. Then maybe the other for a throw pillow along with the Ziggy colored throw pillow.
Good idea!
That was my thought also 😊
My idea exactly, except in the reverse ...the lighter one for lampshades and pillow cases ...maybe even sheets ...as well as pillows. The bedspread and the headboard should be the darker more complex and elegant pattern.
Yeah good idea!
Wouldn’t a big bolster pillow in the second fabric look lovely!
I’d bring in the other bathroom elements before deciding about staining the vanity or not. Even laying things (like the faucets, the marble, the paint options, the hardware, the mirrors, the light fixtures, etc) out before installation could be helpful in deciding what you like best.
Wood is so beautiful that it is always tempting to leave it natural, but Benoit’s craftsmanship will shine regardless.
Love the two color fabric. Much more vibrant and gives a 3D effect. The single color is a wee bit drab. It's all so beautiful and you are so talented. Just lovely to see it come together.
I love the SIMPLER version best of the fabric! Feels calmer and fresh!
I think it gets lost against the wall colour, whereas the other design adds more texture.
Agree one is too busy for my taste
Also Anna, thank you for showing us that an artist does many attempts to get their ideas just right.
I feel the double print leaf pattern design is warmer for the bedroom
The heavier blue pattern for the headboard. Gorgeous
The one color fabric has a quiet cozy bed vibe. It’s a bit more modern and ‘cheeky’ ‘quirky’ fun! Gorgeous!
I like the vivid crisp look of the “Matisse “ like design. ❤
Me too ❤
Same, and if they should go with the natural wood vanity, it would flow from one room to the other nicely. Crisp and clean.
Love both your designs for the headboard. You mentioned Ziggy coloured cushions. What about having the simpler design for the headboard and a couple of small cushions with the more complex design.
You can place the large Ziggy coloured cushions against the headboard and add some smaller cushions featuring your complex design.
May I say that I am so thrilled that you challenged yourself to have a go with the fabric designs. It worked out perfectly 🙌❤️
Anna, I always love your eye for what works best. I really love your styling and designs.
💯% I am going to love whatever you choose.
Wishing you all a wonderful week.
Mary, from tropical 🌴sunny 😎 Central East Coast, Queensland 🐨, Australia 🇦🇺 🥰❤️
I think the two toned busier print looks best. You are very inspiring with your designs and making your own wallpaper and fabrics
This is such a beautiful episode. As someone who used to design and print textiles in much the same way in the Caribbean I have so much appreciation for your creativity and your generosity in sharing your process including all the iterations, options, excitement and doubts. I totally get your love of bamboo furniture especially the beautiful chinoiserie ‘tortoise’ versions you can find in France. These are often ebonised too and have a remarkable timeless and iconic Chippendale like quality.
Possibly your best post. Brocante, woodwork, design, fabric. Loved it. Go with the multilayered fabric. More depth. X
Beautiful designs! I like the second, lighter fabric.
I agree, second lighter colour for the headboard with a throw and pillows in the first swatch.
Osmo oil is amazing, protects the wood and doesn’t change the colour. It’s an amazing product x
I keep hearing that from Brits and Europeans, but my experience of the product here in Canada has been disappointing.
It makes wonder if the formula has been changed.
Yes, Osmo would keep the natural color & protect it.
Billy Petheric of The Petherics UA-cam channel, has used Osmo on all his bare oak pieces from doors, windows, and furniture. I think that would be best. It’s such a pretty piece.
I hope you find what you are needing for your home.
OSMO is fantastic ~ used a clear with white pigment to stop yellowing over time on oak and has been perfect for our project!
Love the fact that you can scan your artwork and have a screen prepared so you don't have to make the screen by hand. You could even use to print some t-shirts for your family when you are done with wallpaper. So much simpler than in the olden days.😊
The lighter version, clear, modern, and yet so sophisticated. Like you, Anna
The more modern Matisse print looks wonderful for a headboard. I would use the 2 tone as throw pillows and put some linen colored fringe around the edges - maybe add a Ziggy color into the throw pillows to coordinate? Love the aesthetic of the room so far. 🥰 And that vase with all the holes is one of my favorites because you can put wrapped bunches of blossoms in each hole and it looks fabulous and the stems stay upright.
Love the natural wood colour for the vanity and the lighter fabric colour for the headboard
Natural wood color, simpler "more modern" pattern for the leaves, no question! Phenominal work, Anna!
The fabric: I like the multi layer color headboard. You can use the other fabric for accent pillows or lamp shades . Also the choice would largely depend on how fancy the furniture is that you are using in the room. But whatever you decide it is stunning
I like the one with more white in the background.
Same! I liked the idea of the multicolor one more and liked the sample of it but when I saw it on the headboard I changed my mind!
@@melaniea8301 I would use the lighter version on the headboard and the darker version for pillows
I like the second fabric for the headboard, it has more character and is richer.
I like the multi color print because the transition from the wall to the fabric feels more gentle and calm. The black and white has so much contrast and feels a little loud.
Both fabric samples are works of art. Please consider these for production. I will be humbled to be your first customer.
Brilliantly beautiful.
For the headboard, I love the ‘Matisse’ style one. It’s light and airy.
17:47 I didn’t realise how savage Philip is when thrift shopping 😂
😅
I’d have to say to him to let me brain storm via my musings 😅
Ya i was almost feeling sorry for Anna , when they were out shopping .
I vote for keeping the furniture the natural color and choosing a new beautiful paint color.
that screen print is gorgeous! wow! I would use the version with both layers of the print. Feels more luxe and I think it suits the room better. Then keep the bed linens plain and add Ziggy-coloured cushions. Stunning!
Also, my vote is to change the paint colour in the bathroom and keep the natural wood
“Do we need-“
“No.”
😂❤
Sounds a bit familiar to me. My husband is pretty good at stopping me from some serious impulse shopping mistakes for which I'm thankful. 🙃
That is what I ask my self everytime I want something, the problem is that I hardly have anything to wear…. My wardrobe has 2pair of pants
I love the simpler indigo for the head board.
If having the lighter wood in the bathroom bench means washed out walls then Id choose the black stain.
The paint colour you have chosen originally is such a lovely surprise. I wasnt expecting it. And I love it.
😁👍
Anna, I'm married 48 yrs. Early on i fell in love with a beautiful secretary in my husband's grandmother's attic. It needed love . When we got it home my husband wouldn't even let me bring it in the house. I lovingly restored it and it is still the best piece we have. It was worth the struggle.
I like the deeper, darker, bolder one - adds a modernity and elegance to the look.
I love headboard #2!
I like the second headboard cover.
Fabric - use both! The single tone print for the main part of the headboard, the duotone for the border.
Love them both! You could incorporate both. Use the one with more color on the head board and use the one with less color for curtains , lampshades and maybe a chair in the room.
You are amazing Anna!!!! Your talent is incredible. You are making the Chateau into a dream destination!!!!
Black will be beautiful!
I like the two toned fabric. It’s more cozy. I’d also recommend Osmo for the vanity. You have an amazing talent with fabric screening. Perhaps the single tone fabric for drapes or maybe chair covers.
It always hurts my heart when people stain beautiful wood, but you both have great taste, and if you need to stain it, then you should surge ahead. Benoit's work is always lovely. As for the fabric, I love the Matisse version for the headboard, and maybe the dual printed version for draperies. I'm eager to see where you end up, and I'm always inspired by the hard and thoughtful work you put into your home.
I liked the more modern version, simple, non-fussy but still very beautiful. Love watching your creativity Anna!!
I like the darker version for the headboard. Your designs are fabulous, Anna.🤗🇨🇦
it's too hard to decide which. They are both fabulous in different ways. I love silk screening. Did posters in high school in the early 70's. Hand drew, hand cut, seven colours with the last colour flocked (fuzzy finish) or diamond dusted (glittery). It's great to watch you do your silk screening. It's so rewarding.
Definatly the lighter one in my opinion. You are both so artistic and always know what is right. Out of all the chateaus yours makes me want to see it in real life. You have such impeccable taste Anna , amazing 🤗
I thoroughly enjoy watching Anna’s process of designing and creating wall fabric, it’s a real treat.
There is such a thing as clear varnish or clear matte. It’s such a beautiful piece. It’ll look great no matter what. I do like the lighter creamy color paint. Very classic.
I LOVE the first fabric choice with the two colors/layers. I’m totally with you that the second one was more modern.
Can you give it a coat to seal it and then down the road do it black?
I think a pale turquoise to complement the bedroom ...just 10-20 shades lighter for the bathroom paint...like the Aegean Sea in the shallows. A marine theme with seashells around and marine rope around mirrors and maybe some furniture would make Phillip happy too! A painting with seagulls flying over a sailboat on the ocean & surf in the foreground would make him super happy I'd wager.
Osmo oil protects wood but it isn’t completely waterproof. It does allow you the time to clean up any spills etc before the water does damage to the wood. Also as I said I love the fact it doesn’t change the original colour of the the natural wood as other products do. We used it on our internal oak doors 3 years ago and they are still the original colour. Would highly recommend.
The silk screened material is just fab!! Would have to live with the choices a little to decide. Or make both and you can change out the head board with the seasons. Lighter one for spring summer. Darker moody for winter.
The headboard the second example! Beautiful work Ana. Can’t wait to see the end result! Thank you for sharing. ❤
I miss printing so much. I have developed arthritis in my hands and can no longer print or do much of anything. I love watching you do your linos and screen printing. It reminds me of the fun I had. Printing is joy.
Both samples were wonderful and you would not be wrong choosing either. My personal preference is the mixed colors. It sets a relaxing tone for the bedroom.
I prefer the print with less layers. I like that it looks a bit more modern and you really notice the overall design. You and Phillip have done a masterful job of blending modern and vintage elements in each of your rooms. The simpler design looks like a wonderful combination of yours and Phillip’s design sensibilities. (You’re incredibly talented, Anna!) The multi layered one while beautiful, is very busy for the space. I think you can still incorporate some other colors including some beautiful ziggy colored accents! 😉 He really does look great in that space! Can’t wait to see what you decide and how it all comes together!
I vote to stain the bathroom vanity and ebony black. The wood grain will shine through, oak is very good for that. The high contrast color will be beautiful with the muted neutral tones you’ve already chosen for that room and will be gorgeous with the tub. Besides, if you’ve found a wall color you like, don’t start questioning that again.
I also vote for the one color leaf calligraphy fabric rather than the two tone leaf. It reminds me of the classic cobalt and white pottery, though of course it’s not blue. So it looks classic, modern, and very calligraphic. I think it’s your best one yet! And it will be gorgeous with a Ziggy colored cushion nearby!
I am constantly impressed by your creativity, Anna and Philipp!
I like black stain!
Beautiful fabric!!! How fun!
Love the headboard with two shades of blue.
Haha love Anna's "are these really ugly or kind of cool" -that's exactly all of us at the brocante!
I'm usually a sucker for light wood, but this time I'll go against the grain (ha!) and suggest you stain the vanity black. It will go with the floor and give a more elegant look. You already have the checkboard floor, the shower tile, the mirror... lots of elements.
I agree ... plus it will balance the dark gray/black of the tub. The light wood is pretty, but it seems really random with the rest of the design choices.
I just love the modern feel the last one brings! Its all about contrast.Just love that one!
Such beautiful work Anna! You are so inspiring!
I admire your visions and talents. As far as the headboard fabric is concerned, while they are both lovely, I like the second sample better than the first against the stark blue of the walls.
I love the way your 'design assistant' Ziggy helps you!
I think that he has very strong opinions but he is gracious when out voted❤!!!
Opinionated but not entitled😂!!!
True ... he was standing there like: 'how long do I have to stand here for them to realise that I'm perfection in this room!' :D
Philips reminding us he owns a boat and is going to take his family sailing any minute ❤
The two color! Fabulous!!!
You are such a wonderful creator and artist. Can’t wait till some of these things that YOU created come to the commercial market. I patiently wait. The second print for the headboard will look fantastic.
Put a satin-finish of clear shellac on that GORGEOUS oak cabinet to retain it's natural color - and change the wall color!! It will pop so majestically against the floor tiles after the protection sheet comes up. Amazing work on the fabric! 💜
Beautiful!
Oh this was just wonderful watching loved hearing your plans billy . Alex the interview went really well. Yanis good luck in love and life ❤️ you sir are an incredible inspiration to many people. Your mum must be so proud. It's such a treat getting to watch you all at the convent conversion.
It’s a complex thing…the vision, the design, and having the skill to technically make it happen. Kudos to you Anna. Multitalented!!!
Go with the dark stain. It matches better with all other design choices for that room. They make lots of that beautiful wood -to be used on next project.
The natural wood is so lovely.Depending on your choice of effect re material - the darker print gives a cosier look ,the lighter background gives a fresher look.Both beautiful.😄🎉
I love watching the process of making fabric! Great job, Anna🙌🏼
For bathroom furniture: I say stain it and keep the wall color!
For the headboard color: I say the darker one with more pattern! It’ll be an eye catcher in the room 😍
Ana, I LOVE that you're designing your fabric. You are my hero. I can never find the fabric designs ( that are in my head) anywhere and it's so frustrating. I started to create my own in a much, much more simplified way (stencils & fabric paint) not nearly as creative as your designs, but still, it was fun & satisfying.
My vote on the headboard fabric was for the darker one.
Like the lighter one. An amazing process.
I love the first print with layered colors. I can’t wait to see the result!
I like the fabric with more color - and agreed! Ziggy looks gorgeous in that room!
I would keep the wood natural because it so gorgeous. Change the paint color, that's my vote!
Ana. Your talents always amaze me. I hope when your girls are a little older you start to teach them how to do creative things.
How beautiful everything you do! Natural wood color, you could always painted dark further in life if you want to change it. And the prints!! Just amazing. Love the busiest one with the two tones but all are gorgeous!!
The oak is beautiful! Leave the oak, color the walls! 👏🏻
Loved: 1. "Funky not sure", 2. Ziggy colored cushions, and 3. Your fabric!! Luscious! I'd go with the 2 tone one, but they're both gorgeous.
Definately black colour will compliment the floor plus the interior full of light needs some statement point, as for the headboard - lighter one and Ziggy-coloured throws. Again impressed and inspired by your talent and ideas :)
Love the simple linear look for the headboard (both are great!). Very stylish ❤
Beautiful job on the linens!!
I love that you’re using ancient methods with modern material to create your own line of fabrics to go along with your wallpapers. Talk about a side hustle, you could make a full line of your chateau papers & fabrics. Then partner with a company who’d produce them. Would be wonderful.
Multi-colored fabric is my vote. The wall color is gorgeous, too.
I’d love the natural finish on the vanity but darker walls for contrast. I imagine navy blue would look lovely and maybe nautical. You have so much light, the options are limitless. It’s just gorgeous so far.
Love the 2nd headboard sample. You are such a talented gal Anna. Well done.
The second headboard is beautiful. The wood natural color is lovely.
Oh Anna you’ve got such amazing creative talent. I so admire your design sense. Beautiful!
I’ve followed them too-Magic Carpet.. small world isn’t it? They’re in Canada now finishing their boat.
I love that you ask. I would use the single color "Matisse" for the head board, and use the second print for long light-blocking drapes. Throw pillows using Ziggy's beautiful color. Thank you for encouraging all those who may be a bit timid, but desire to craft.
Your talent is so inspiring!!
You show such joy and delight as you create, Anna. I'm glad you can make time for it.
