It's about time to take a little break and waste some time, isn't it? I think so. Head to the Hermès website and click the tiny picture of wallpaper rolls in a bin (the images will take a moment to load). Choose a pattern category at the bottom of the page. Then drag your favorite color from the bin to the top of the "wall" and pull it down to unroll the paper. Add more strips until the wall is complete. Download the pattern to use on your computer. My desktop is sporting a dark blue herringbone at the moment and looking quite dapper.

Wallpaper your desktop with Hermès
It's about time to take a little break and waste some time, isn't it? I think so.

Definitely a waste of time. Especially for how long it took me to figure out I had to use full screen to see that pattern category at the bottom, since I don't have a giant monitor like you do. ;) But pretty fun, though.
ReplyDeleteShame on you for making me waste so much time when I have so much other stuff to do! Now if I'm not ready for Christmas, it's all your fault! ;-)))
Love you and can't wait to see you!

What a cute way to "wallpaper" your desktop. Clever.

oh man... you can't give me gems like THAT! How will I ever focus on the rest of my day! but seriously... thanks :)
ReplyDeletehow do i download the wallpaper after i create it?
ReplyDeleteOooooooooooooooooh, thanks!!! I wonder if I could use it as the background on my *very,very,VERY* neglected blog?
ReplyDeleteOnce you've covered the whole wall with paper, a link appears at the bottom next to the bin that says "Download your desktop background." Click it and the file will automatically download to your computer.
ReplyDeleteI can't figure out how to download it either. Bummer! :(
ReplyDeleteFigured it out! Had to move the task bar to the left of the screen in order to see the download option. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm loving my new desktop.
ReplyDeleteLove it! I am on my way.

great! loving the dark blue herringbone, too.
ReplyDeleteI adore that website: it's full of gems and so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteoh wow i love hermes but can't afford it so the free wallpaper would have to do for now. Thank you! ;) xx
ReplyDeleteThis would also look great in felt.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
You can also make your own "collier de chien bracelet.There is an orange one .Clic on "I want it"(I found it by clicking on the orange square)Y.S
ReplyDeletethat's pretty much awesome
ReplyDeletedownloading was a problem in Firefox on my Mac. Switched to Safari and download option appeared no problem. With complex sites like Hermes it's a good idea to try a different browser when you run into problems. BTW, went with the yellow/green Up&Down with a single stripe of the blue!
