Our Intrinsic Love of Nature Is Trendy in Home Décor
Petal Power
Florida-based Rifle Paper Co. is known for its whimsical designs and accessories, from cards to desk accessories to rugs and pillows. This fall, the company has launched both traditional and peel-and-stick wallpaper in its signature floral and nature-inspired prints; we think they would make a statement as a great accent wall or entryway design—or turn a powder room into a botanical jewel box. From $50 per roll, riflepaperco.com
