It's not just the Fashion world that has a thing for 'spots' and 'stripes'. Combine som animal prints in your home is a great way to make the look and feel trendy and chique. It's widely avaliable as rugs, cushions, as a contrast duvet cover, all sizes like queen, king-size and for the brave onces perhaps wallpaper?
Here is a small corner inspiering for anyone that's thinking about ree-decorating or just creating in your home. When it comes to the duvet cover and the bedding you can experiment with color and prints, it'a fun having some extra covers to change between and it's easy to just hide in the closet when seasons change or you simply feel like a change of color. Pillows is also easy to change which makes a contrast print fun to play around with and as well change as seasons come and go.
Do's and most dont's
1. Use prints with dim colors,like olive green, deeper purple and all shades of brown..think autumn and not spring, not too much bright white..
2. Cuddle up, make it cozy and over chunk both bed and the amount of pillows, adding one small pillow in leopard print might not be the wisest.
3. Having animal prints in your home is making a statement of luxury and the combination of scrawny wood furniture and other printed fabrics, children toys and simply the opposite of that cozy look.
4.Having a home that suit the trend is not always possible but a small tricks can be done, for the bedroom just match the covers with the drapes and have fun with the safari trend, perhaps wood framed mirror and a lamp in warm yellow to go with the sandy printed fabric.
5.The livingroom, if you go for print, let it be found somewhere else than just the pillows, like in photos and a rug by the fireplace.
6. Last, have fun with it and just make it happen. Start off somewhere and just simply try it out, prints are brave and beautiful and now more then ever really trendy. It has a long history when decorating our homes and it's a great way to make the livingspace soft in tones, warm and homiey..most of all creating a little sanctuary of your own.
Good luck and get in on the 'spot-lights'..
