At our home we have a small bathroom that’s been redecorated lots of times over the years in the usual way – new paint, wallpaper, fixtures,… It’s always looked better but never very exciting.

This year, we decided to try something really different. Using only specialty Thai silk mulberry papers and diluted all purpose white glue to collage directly on the walls, we’re going to transform our ordinary little bathroom into a unique West Coast beach scene complete with a turquoise seaside bath/pool grotto.
