Five Must-Have Fall Accessories - 0 views

  • When it comes to the holiday season, seasonal home accessories swap in and out of home decor faster than you can bat your eyes. This can make it difficult to stay on target, especially when one week you’re seeing Halloween and the next week that same store is full of Christmas decor. Despite the quick wardrobe changes in the store, fall is still here and is just getting into full swing, so it’s not too late to find these five must-have fall home accessories and decor items. Natural Pumpkins Natural pumpkins refers to pumpkin shapes that have been created using woven vines, grasses or other natural materials. It does not refer to actual pumpkins (though those never go out of style, either). Keep in mind that since this is a trendy item currently, it can be relatively expensive. Small woven pumpkins can cost you up to you $20 and larger pumpkins can break into the $100 or more range.

DESIGN my heart out: guest post: Brilliant Hues - 0 views

  • Brilliant orange chairs pop against the aqua of the beautiful wallpaper in this SF dining room. Love the clarity of the orange; it has a lot of white in it.
  • Love the pops of brilliant color based off of the beautiful modern portrait in this Hollywood Regency style living room. Jewel tone fuchsia and yellow look amazing next to gold accents. Love the asymmetrical look of the chandelier used in this space.
  •  
    My focus today is on brilliant hues, those colors that zing with intensity, adding energy and style to a space. These intense colors can have a big impact in a room so if you aren't feeling brave and bold, use them as accent colors in decorative accessories or lighting fixtures.

Trends in Mirrors - 0 views

  • Though typically interior designers recommend against investing in trends, mirrors are one trend that you can safely invest in without fear of it going out of style. However, as with any trend, there are certain guidelines you should adhere to. For example, avoid trendy finishes on the mirror, such as etching or embedded trim, as these can date the mirror and look them out of style. Remember, however, that your frames can easily be swapped out as your style of home decor changes and you can find frames in traditional, contemporary or modern styles.
  •  
    Mirrors have moved from the walls and into other areas of home accessories and decor. Of course, this also means that new trends have come about and there are a number of new home accessories that can bring these trends into your home decor. Fortunately, mirrors are one trend that doesn't seem to go away but rather manifests itself in different ways over the years. Here are some recent trends in mirrors that have emerged over the past few years.

Accessories and Decor for a Home Office - 0 views

  • To begin, stop looking at your office as a space that is only functional but as a space that deserves to be decorated with as much love and thought as the other rooms in your home. Don’t feel that since it’s a home office, various home accessories simply don’t have a place in there, because it isn’t true.
  •  
    Aside from the bedroom, perhaps one of the most frustratingly difficult rooms to decorate in the home is the office. To many, home decor simply doesn't seem to have a place in the home office. It's meant only for filing cabinets, a desk and a chair. However, there are plenty of home accessories and decor items that have their place in the home office. Here are a few great home accessories that are perfect for your home office.
