Wall to Wall

One of the simplest methods to completely transform a part of your home is to add a wall mural or graphic wall art. With just one project, typically accomplished in a matter of one or two hours, a wall, room, entryway, garden, ceiling and many other parts of your home can boast an extreme makeover (extremely simple that is!).

I gravitated towards the fun,girly prints 

 

  

Naturally, I  had to add some edge with this Bond girl silhouette  print

 

And goofy art was the next logical step

I have been a fan of Blik graphics for a long time now 

they are continually presenting talented and stupendously creative artists

They focus on smaller scale graphics as compared to complete murals

to be honest, the kitty was the selling point on this one

 

 

French company Vinyl is just too cool

I love this

 

Again with the kitties!

Dali Decals has some pricey decals although there are great reviews from its customers

 

  

 

I think trees are my favorite design

All of these are easily applicable without the aid of a professional, although one is always encouraged. They are also easily removable and are an all-round great way to transform a space!

Soft, Warm and Luxurious Brown

Brown is a beautiful color. Its multi-faceted character allows it to be earthy, yet rich, soft, yet strong, and conjures up images of both smooth clay and textured sisal. For the home, brown can be used in small rooms such as bathrooms, to envelope the guest in smooth comfort. For larger rooms, lighter shades of brown are earthy and create a warm base for additional decor colors. From chocolatey smooth to caramel sweet, brown tones can help ground your decor , adding to the palette, yet somehow beautifully and just adequatelly detracting from it.

 

i love the smooth texture of the pear contrasted with the rugged and versatile fabric of the sisal/burlap tablecloth. The scraggy shells of the nuts on display is inspiration for details such as decorative pillows and area rugs

 

the key to staving off the B {bor...}word when it comes to brown is in the details- textures and prints keep the eye interested

details,details,details  

yellows and creams lighten the palette in the summer and reds can be used to add rich diversity in autumn and winter

Remember, the words Brown and boring do not have to be synonymous!
