Inspiration truly comes from everywhere. I’ve always loved this cute notebook my friend Andrea gave me last year at SNAP. So I decided to blow up that pretty little scene and duplicate it on my wall. With the help of some vinly decals dots from Walls need Love, I was able to make my little day dream come true……..a gold confetti wall.
To start my project I ordered 144 (2 in) dots from WNL. I was worried that the gold would be too shiny, but it has the perfect tint to it and doesn’t clash at all. They peel off like stickers so it’s super easy to apply! No transferring needed at all!
To start I laid out my notebook and tried my best to copy it onto the wall. To make a cascading affect I started with a cluster on top and then spaced them apart as they got closer to the bottom. Follow that rule and your really can’t go wrong:0)
Tomorrow check out the details of my coral dresser with the brass pulls over on Infarrantly Creative! I will be contributing some of my DIY projects over there this year once a month! I’m so happy to be teaming up with Becki and her team!! I met her last year at SNAP and we immediately clicked:0) See you over there!
awesome, awesome job!! i love it. it’s the perfect girly functional space. loving that dresser! you’re gonna be so organized.

Saw your dresser over at IC. I’ve had a can of BM’s Coral Gables for several months but haven’t used it yet. Love it on your dresser — just the right mix of pink and orange. Love those pulls, too. Creative choice! Your wall with the gold dots is neat also. Seems like a fun room to be in!

I love this!! And I have that notebook! Ah! It’s my favorite. I have the two other ones that go with it – I want to use the color scheme and polka dots to make a jewlery dish. Seriously, they’re so pretty to look at, I almost don’t want to write in them.

Destiny, I featured Infarrantly Creative in my Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop post tomorrow and the prettiest picture she had was of your coral dresser project. Included a link to your site, as well, with the credit. Would love it if you would stop by and add a link to the hop. It goes live tonight at 7:30 EST.

I love this so much… Beautiful! I am also wondering what is the quote with the turquoise background in the frame? It caught my eye too! Thanks!
So fun Destiny! Love it!
Ooh, I love this! I want to try it for the wall behind my TV. Thanks for inspiring me!
LOVE this! and i actually just bought that same notebook last night at tar-jay. we must be on the same wavelength.
Destiny!!! Love the coral dresser & the gold polka dots!!! You know how I love bright colors on dressers and desks! LOL
I was thinking of what to do in my new little office I have… Wall stickers will be perfect with my bright teal desk! Now I have to browse for sticker designs that will work in my space. Thanks for the beautiful inspiration! Miss you! XOXO
Destiny:
You are a genius! I love coral and used it for my summer vintage glam wedding (Aug. 2012) featuring coral, gold, and ivory. I look forward to setting up our new home and using some of the great ideas you post on your blog. May you continually be blessed with creativity and family bliss!
Happy blogging,
Lori
Love this and am currently repainting a chest for my daughters room. Where can I get the gold/brass pulls with label holders!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this idea!! .. I am currently pregnant now.. If it happens to be a girl I just might have to use this idea to create a statement wall
Thanks!

I’m so in love with this, I decided immediatly to do it IN MY LIVING ROOM, the same way you did it with your TV
. Bold, I know… this is probably in your bedroom. I’ve already ordered the gold dots (I found this post 20 min ago). How did you get your TV frame white? Thanks!!
Hello! What color specifically are the dots on the WNL website? Gold or copper? Thank you!
Hi! I absolutley love the wall AND the dresser and I am trying to replicate this for my soon to be born daughter’s nursery. May I ask what paint color you used for the walls?
It was just a plain white…lol!
I feel really stupid but the gold dots are from WNL what is WNL???
Hello! Just wondering what the name of the paint is you used for the dresser? So lovely!
Hi! Its called Coral Gables by BM:0)
thanks to this post now i know what to do with my daughters nursery, she is 8 month old and her room is still painted grey and with boring white furniture, I knew i wanted to paint her dresser but I wasn’t sure what color…. I showed my husband the picture of the dresser and he is in love with the idea … we are doing big polka dots on the wall where her crib is.
thank you for such a inspirational work : )
These are very cool. WNL did a good job with these. They also look great in other colors too, for kids rooms and especially teens. We love purple!
