sidebar background

sorry for all the questions but I'm just trying to finish up! I've managed to get a background behind my sidebar widgets by modifying this code from another post here in the forum and adding my background image.

/* To format secondary widgets in sidebar */ #secondary .widget { background: url("http://interiorsalvagedesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/fairy-resized.jpg") repeat scroll left top transparent; border: 1px solid #99999; padding: 20px; padding: 2rem; }

http://interiorsalvagedesign.com/ How would I get the background to be around the whole sidebar rather than just the individual widgets? I've tried #sidebar .widget-area and a few other things but can't get it. Thanks!
