and here we have the man behind the designs....

not really, this is Joe Nye, a Los Angeles based designer known for using the line.  Doesn't he look like he could be the designer?  I couldn't actually find a picture of Manuel Canovas, but there is a great read about him on the blog "Little Augury" if you would like to read more about the man behind the original designs and see one of the elegant rooms for which he is famous! 

" All my life I have liked big motifs. They feel more elegant, more generous."

-Manuel Canovas

Ok, so now I am ready to redecorate my own house!  "Out with the old and in with the new", as they say! I'd better find a client who is into brights quickly, so I can satisfy my urge to use some of these papers and fabrics or my husband is in major trouble!
