Jazz in Central Park Wallpaper

Whether you're planning on plastering an entire room, a feature wall, or simply adding a single panel of pattern, UK-based Lizzie Allen's hand-printed wallpapers are the perfect addition over plain old paint. While most of Allen's motifs are London-specific—royal guards, city gents, St. Paul's, red buses and black cabs—this depiction of jazz in New York's Central Park would work great to perk up any home here or across the pond. Check out her site for more information and designs!

Tips
- Every Inch of Storage Counts
  
  The undersides of beds are wasted spaces unless you put stuff underneath. Find a bed frame with drawers or space for storage boxes on wheels.

  You shouldn’t have to tilt the frame or mattress to access anything under the bed.
- Green Table Materials
  
  Try to get something that can be flat-packed and made of reclaimed or FSC-certified wood. Take a look at the finishes used to be sure they don’t off-gas and contribute to indoor air quality…
