Lau created an elegant 3D motif of branches and magnolias out of exquisite wallpaper from Maya Romanoff for the 2009 Kips Bay Decorator Showhouse. The leaves are made of seven paper patterns — Maya Romanoff's studio custom colored and cut the branches and hand-painted the leaves. Artist Jo Lynn Alcorncut the petals down by hand, putting it all together.Q: What are 4 things you'd tell homeowners decorating their house for the first time? A: This is a great question, because I organized my book so that homeowners could easily follow them and make their homes unique. 1. First, I would say that color and pattern are a big way to make a statement in your home. It is important to not be afraid of color and mixing patterns because it makes a huge impact to any space. If you can’t paint, I would suggest bringing in some throw pillows with a great pattern and getting some great artwork for the walls.2. My next tip would be to conceal and flaunt. Every home has its quirks; try to make them work in your favor. Once, in a client’s home, I made an awkward column in an entryway into a beautiful, leather-clad, curving wall with a hidden powder room behind it. 3. My third tip would be to get great functional items that add flair to your home. A beautiful hanging cabinet would be a great way to add storage to your home while adding visual interest. 4. Act as a curator when decorating, and to find pieces that are crafted and have soul to them. When you collect furniture or accessories that you love, the space immediately becomes your own. I think it is important to look for timeless pieces that are of good quality. I also like to look for pieces that have a hand-crafted feel because they add personality and warmth. Try looking around local flea markets and collecting things from your travels to make your space uniquely your own. Next, more photos of Lau's interiors from Expressive Modern

It would have been easier to paint magnolias on the wall and call it a day, but taking it one step further with a three-dimensional application adds a delightful layer of whimsy. This would turn a little girl's bedroom into a fantasyland.

this would be neat in the girl's room... but they'd probably pick off the flowers... maybe do something like this as a ceiling border on one wall?
