Help Me Name My Trellis Wallpaper




Here's a box full of my wallpaper designs for Porters Paints.  It's getting very close with all the designs now signed off and colourways chosen.  If you have dropped into our store of late you will know that our back 2 rooms are currently closed as we are redecorating them around my new wallpaper collection.   We will also be photographing these rooms in the coming weeks as they will be used in the advertising for the new collection.  There is exciting times ahead I promise!! 




Here's a little sneak peek below of some of the designs and colourways....



It's hard to see in this picture however, I wanted the collection to have a beautiful hand-drawn look.  I didn't want it to look like it had been generated by a computer.  My favourite design is going to be called - Round and Round the Garden and it isn't in the picture above.  You will have to wait until we launch in a couple of months time to see it.  The trellis is yet to be named and the stripe is going to be called Higgledy Piggledy Stripe. 

I was thinking it might be fun for you, my readers to name the trellis!!  What do you think?  I am opening this up to you and I hope that you will leave your ideas for the trellis name here in the comments section of this post.  The person who thinks of the name I select will be sent 3 free rolls of my wallpaper in any colour/design they choose and this is open to readers anywhere in the world. 

Please make sure you leave your email address when you leave your idea in the comments section below so that I can contact you!!

If you are unable to leave a comment here, then just email me - anna@blackandspiro.com.au and I will add your idea into the comment section below fo you.

The 3 free rolls will be sent out just after we launch the collection in a couple of months time.  However, I need to decide on a name in the next week so this is open until next Friday 16th March, 2012.

Hope you will join in the fun!!

Anna

  8. They are just lovely, and I love the colour ways!
    I think "Diamond in the Rough" would be a great name- the diamond motif really stands out to me.

  14. Hi Anna,
    Was thinking of your beautiful garden and thought why not "Anna's Trellis?" Or in place of your name your dear mothers name (which has slipped my mind, apologies)_______ trellis or your grandmothers name _______trellis Can't wait to finally visit your store in person.

  20. This is so incredibly exciting Anna - your own wallpaper range. I'm thinking my little study/office/studio/work room at my home needs some Spiro/porters paints goodness! - you've already had some awesome name ideas - good luck deciding!

  21. Hi Anna,
    wonderful wallpaper. I can't wait to see your favourite!.
    Now a name? Im thinking...............................................
    "Eye of the be-holder", or
    "catch me if you can"or
    "un-lock my trellis"

    I love the pink Trellis one best.

  36. Hi there Anna,

    Congratulations on your lovely wallpaper collection. How about Juliet's Trellis as a name. After the trellis that might have been under Juliet's balcony. Your design actually looks like the layout of a formal Italian or French garden though, so Italian Garden or French Garden might also be nice. I hope I'm not overdoing it with the suggestions but I'm keen to win!

    Best wishes,
    Mary

  37. Hi Anna,

    I think you're wallpaper designs are amazing - kudos! I also like how you are using clever names. For the trellis style, I think it should be "walk like an Egyptian"

  41. Anna! This is so exciting, what a thrill for you! Think my 'nook' in my little place could do with a splash of Spiro magic!

    What fun to get your followers to help with naming your trellis! Love the angle you've taken with the names so far, gorgeous.

    Here's my two bobs worth . . .

    Merry go trellis
    Eensy weensy Spiro
    Vertigo
    Whimsy
    Pocket full of posies Trellis
    Melody Trellis
    But a dream Trellis

    Firstly I just want to say how much I love your blog, so inspirational!

    A couple of suggestions for your trellis design

    1. Happily Ever After
    2. Garden of Eden, or, Anna’s Garden of Eden

    Speaking of trellises, I bought some of your royal blue trellis fabric from your off-cuts section for some cushions and they look fantastic.

  70. Summer Afternoon in Versailles.

    I don't know why but it reminds me of an aerial shot of the garden paths at Versailles, and also the way you walk around and around the hedges and lakes, discovering something new!

    (Also, I just like the words 'summer', 'afternoon' and 'Versailles' together!) And these colours are so summery and Anna Spiro-ish.)

    But I love the other suggestions here too. Such creativity!

  72. Down the Beanstalk is what comes to mind for me. Goes with the theme of the other two names and looks very much like a climber of some sort. Up the Beanstalk also being an option but not sure if it could be taken the wrong way. mel. mfowler@hotmail.com.au

  77. Dear Anna,
    Some thoughts for your wallpaper name:

    "Garden Maze"
    "My Garden Maze"
    "Lost in the maze"

    To me the pattern reminds me of a garden maze and the mystery of what lies within! - much like the interior of a home.

  78. Dear Anna,

    Having recently been to your wonderful store for the first time I couldn't resist a name suggestion (or three!) for your fantastic paper -

    1. Through the looking glass
    (because to me it looked at first like lots of reflections and holds the shape of my grandmothers antique mirror)

    2. Love interlocking
    (because the abstract in me thought it fit well)

    and

    3. Row-boat-a- trellis
    (because within the pattern I can see row boats and oars and ripples on the surface)

    What a fascinating competition this will be to judge with all of the creative entries!

    Have a lovely weekend!

  79. Hi Anna

    Jo told me about your new wallpaper and that you are looking for names … so working hard on a Friday we came up with a few (not sure if you needed it to be ‘something trellis):

    Sillert Trellis Trellis backwards
    Anna’s Trellis Because it is yours 
    Fancy Trellis It is fancy
    Sweet Pea Trellis Traditionally grown on a trellis

    P.S. Could you please let me know if the Sweet Pea Trellis comes in yellow, I am looking for sunshine for my little girls (Poppy & Lulu’s) room...

    Good luck with the names!

  102. Hello Anna,
    A couple of suggestions that I have are....
    1.Millefleurs Trellis...french for a thousand flowers. I have noticed how you love flowers and the colorful decor that you use.
    2.Tessellations...meaning a repeat pattern composed of interlocking shapes extended infinitely...kind of liked how the word sounded and the meaning fits the design of a trellis!

    Goodluck with your new line!

    Got my fingers crossed for this comp - been sitting agonising over the wallpaper for feature wall for about a year now...it would take about three rolls to do it. Maybe this is a sign!

  115. Hello, I just came over to your blog by way of Cote de Texas. It is just, well, absolutely beautiful!! I love your colors and patterns. The wallpapers are gorgeous. I would suggest:
    Frog Trellis (reference to frog prince and part of the design reminds me of frog legs)
    Like a Diamond
    Twinkle Twinkle Trellis

    Will definitely be following your blog from now on! Good luck with your wallpaper venture!

  117. Hi Anna

    I live in England and have just started following your blog. I love your site and am inspired by the interesting and innovative pictures and designs you showcase. I wish I could jump on a magic carpet and whisk myself over to your lovely shop for the day!

    How about 'Through the Maze' for your trellis wallpaper design? It reminds me of an English Manor House country maze and, given that you have already called one 'Round and round the garden', I thought this was in keeping with your literary fairytale and horticultural (Alice in Wonderland meets The Secret Garden??) theme. You could use some topiary trees in your store as part of your merchandising to reflect the name and bring a bit of fun.

    Good luck with your project, it promises to be fab!
    All the best

  119. Ah- maazing!!! It's my dream to have a wallpaper line so very inspired.

    As for the name, I'm going to go with:

    Secret Garden Trellis

    The pattern is so reminiscent of the mood/feel of that book- one of my favourites!

    Or...on the same track, it could also be aptly named:

    Mary Lennox (Trellis)

    ...after the main character.

  122. your wallpaper looks gorgeous!
    i really love the colors :)
    so cute and bright! i can definitely picture them really brightening up a room


    the design on the trellis wallpaper reminds me a little of eyes so maybe i spy trellis?
    or what about stop and smell the trellis? that may sound rather silly but the shape of the design reminds me a little of a stop sign :)
    a trellis like this
    traipse through the trellis

    those are just a few random thoughts going through my head.
    hope i was able to help :)


    good luck with the launch of your collection!!

  123. I've just got back from living in East Asia and the Middle East for the past 6 years and your blog really kept me going for a good part of that time! I recently came back to Bris and bought a house and it's filled with Anna Spiro-esque inspiration, so I must thank you for that!

    I don't really have any ideas for the name of the wallpaper, except maybe:
    'Trompe L'Trellis'

    as its hand-drawn look is deceptive to the eye, and the name has nice alliteration!

    ReplyDelete
  124. Hi Anna

    Firstly I wanted to say a big thank you, I adore your blog, I wish I were able to visit you store (I am hoping to, one day!) but I am very glad to be able to follow you online. Your magnificent style certainly resonates, you have such an eclectic elegance, and i really admire the sentiment you can see in your work, everything in you store always looks so loved and full of sunshine!

    I really enjoy watching your interior designs unfold- it's very inspirational, I moved to Paris 6 months ago and many of my 'house-warming' projects have been influenced by you. So anyway, big fan, and big thanks!

    Your beautiful trellis wallpaper reminds me of the Faberge designs, I can imagine a creeping clematis growing up like little jewels. So I would suggest 'Faberge Lattice' or 'Green-fingered Faberge' or something like that.

    Warmest regards

    Harriet

  134. Hi Anna
    What great news regarding your wallpaper range!

    My suggestion is:

    'GEO BOOGIE WOOGIE'

    after Piet Mondrian's iconic
    'BROADWAY BOOGIE WOOGIE'!
    i know how you love New York and the repetition and lines just reminded me of this early 20th Century Mondrian painting. I always loved the title.

  156. Hi Anna
    I am a long-time reader of your blog, I have never contributed before but thought of a name immediately for your trellis wallpaper.
    The pattern reminds me of an aerial view of a maze so I thought "Amazing Grace" could be apt.
    It incorporates a play on the word maze and grace which defines your style and no doubt your wallpaper range for Porters.
    Kind regards

    Not sure if you have this suggestion already, but I was thinking "Charlotte's web"

  169. Hi Anna

    The first three that came to mind for me were Diamonds in the Sky, Looking Glass Lattice and Peekaboo Trellis.....of which variations have all been suggested...back to the drawing board!!

    As Imperial Trellis is such an iconic design and has such a perfectly simple name, perhaps a name that is also one word but still fits with your theme.....maybe Ethereal Trellis or Fairytale Trellis?

    I also like 'Rambling Rosie Trellis' as it also has a vintagey/whimsical sound like the two already named - the 'Rambling' suggests more of the hand drawn quality you were looking for, the 'Rosie' suggests ring a ring a rosie and that a trellis is usually for flora to climb on...(not to mention you describe your blog entries as "ramblings")...I also like the idea of the pink one being called Rambling Rosie Rose...haha!!

    Love your ramblings by the way, have been reading them for years! Wanted to also thank you for my $5 cushion - i got a scrap of designers guild elenora fabric from your sale a couple of years ago and turned it into a cushion...it is still on the couch and my boys (the little and big one) still fight over who gets to lie on it....

    Hope you find something that resonates with you before the deadline...

    Very exciting indeed! I've been looking at this all afternoon waiting for my daughter to return home from school to add her two cents...She (Madeline, 17) adores Latin and so I thought she might come up with something having to do with Latin...so here is our idea...

  176. Hello Anna,

    Your new wallpaper range is just so inspiring and beautiful. Thanks, it’s generous of you to invite your readers to join in the of naming your trellis design. Here’s what I came up with.

    I love wordplay and the fabulous name you gave your stripe design sparked my imagination for a theme of sorts.

    If you add a few words to the stripe name, to this:

    “A-Hiddledy-Piggledy-of-Stripe”

    then maybe you could call your trellis design

    “A-Treasure-trove-of-Trellis” or

    “A-Tribe-of-Trellis” or

    A-Tropic-of-Trellis” or

    “A-Lollipop-of-Lattice”


    If you don’t like that idea, how about simply:

    Treasure-trove Trellis or

    Tribal Trellis or

    Tropical Trellis or

    Lollipop Lattice or


    Thanks again for a chance to name the design. It was lots of fun!

    I wish you every success with your new line and thanks so much for all the joy and pleasure you’ve given me through sharing your inspiring work through your blog.

    best wishes

    ReplyDelete
  178. Okay, I have one more for you:

    Enchanted Trellis (Still liking the one word before the Trellis like the Imperial thing and I think still goes with your theme ...plus the trellis has a very Moroccan/Persian look which makes me think of Aladdin/magical things)...Apologies if this has already been suggested, haven't checked this time!

    Am all done now, don't envy you having to decide.

  181. I think a lovely name for the trellis pattern would be "gateways trellis", as the design inspires thoughts of a charming old gate, and the name would be evocative of beginning a new adventure, as you yourself are doing, Anna, with this venture. Best of luck to you. ~Jennifer
