It seems you can't read a blog without seeing a chalkboard sign somewhere in a post these days. While these don't fit the style of every home, for many, it is a great way to add a piece of living art to their homes. This rings true especially around the holidays. If I ever get around to remembering to buy chalk at the store, I may have one to show you of my own one day! But for now, here are a few that have inspired me.
As I mentioned in a previous post, black and white canopy striped fabric is one of my current obsessions. It's classic, clean and oh so elegant. Not to mention that it can make a bold statement in a room without being too flashy. I normally favor a very neutral color palette with accents of greens and robin's egg blues, and this pattern could be put in any such setting and be beautiful. Here a few of my favorite examples: Is this room spectacular or what? It's modern, classic and sophisticated! There is a large amount of stripes in this room, yet it's not overbearing. And the symmetry and clean lines displayed throughout give the room great balance. I could just plop this room right into my house! This is another example (as shown in a previous entry). If you don't have the money to invest in a rug, buy a few pillows and get the same look in your room for a fraction of the price. Whoever said black and brown don't go together was seriously mistaken. Lo
