The Dog Days of Summer....
Always keep a sense ofwhimsyin the forefront of your design scheme....There is nothing worse than someone that takes themselves too seriously when putting together a room! This piece does just that! The unexpected round frame and large scale make this puppy come to life. In this vignette, found in my shop, I've incorporatedfaux-animal print pillows on the accompanying sofa. Although the palette remains neutral an element offunstill shines through loud and clear!
TheZebraprint carpet is a great way to transform a traditional landscape into a modern oasis! Itsplayfuledge is just enough to wowpeople when they walk through the door, but not overwhelm them! I even chose to use it running up my front stairs....It's the first thing you see when you enter my home and it says "welcome!"
My shop stylist Lois recently revamped one of my window stories. I love her use of these versatileDuraleeottomans upholstered in a faux-snakeskin, trimmed out with nickel nail heads. This cohesive look sets the stage for afabulous vintage glass & Lucite table and the mid-century modern chair, which are all tied together by afunfaux-cowhide rug! I love this look....whimsical, playful, &perfect!
