The Modern Materialist

My Design Preferences Are for the Birds

Posted by Steph Auteri

 

[16.40 euros, Inke] 

I believe we've established by this point that I have a thing for bird-related decor. So, obviously, I had to share with you these adhesive-backed wallpaper birds, which I now want to plaster all over my walls.

Because I felt this was an important product to share, I struggled mightily to translate the German contents of the web page for you, my dear readers. I was so delighted to figure out that one can choose from different color mixtures, before I realized that there was a link at the bottom of the page that would convert everything to English.

I may be an idiot (::sigh::), but I was right! You can choose from different color mixtures! Which can be helpful if you're trying to match things to an already existing color scheme.

Of course, if you're good with a pen (or stencils, even), you could probably make a similar product yourself. As I am not even good with scissors (my nursery school report card said so), all I can do is dream.

about the blogger

Alex Zalben is a writer living in New York City. He's written for McSweeney's, Modern Humorist and PulpSecret.com. As one-fifth of the sketch comedy group Elephant Larry, he has been written up in the New York Times, Chicago Tribune, and pretty much every other major publication. Their blog was named one of PC Magazine's Top Blogs for 2007, and they recently won an ECNY Award for their viral short, "Minesweeper: The Movie." Alex did not know love until he bought his first Mac.

Diana Vilibert is a freelance writer, among other things. Born in Lithuania, she now lives in New Jersey, where she doesn't have to walk to work ten miles in the snow, barefoot, uphill both ways. Diana cannot afford most of the products she writes about because she buys too many pairs of heels to make up for her shoeless childhood. She's written for MarieClaire.com, Janemag.com, and CosmoGIRL!.

Shaun Seneviratne is a dude just like anyone else. Just your average guy that raps Bone Thugs-n-Harmony to strangers on the subway at 4 a.m., doesn't chew his food because he believes it's a waste of time, and sleeps next to a scale replica of the Ghostbusters headquarters. He can rest easy knowing Egon, Peter, Ray, and Winston have his back. He currently lives in northern New Jersey, plays bass in Rapid Cities, and recently started a tumblr.

Laureen Mahler is a writer and editor who lives in California, where the sun never sets and everyone rollerskates to work. She coedits Beeswax Magazine and spends the remainder of her time as a freelance writer and letterpresser. She truly believes that someday she will master the ultimate multitask of blogging while letterpressing, though that might mean that she'll need a second pair of arms.
