Natural Beauty

With spring just sprung and the temperature not 

quite warm enough to venture outside,

it's time to flip through my always too large

stack of magazines and daydream 

about lonely rooms in need!

Since the colors of spring are still a few weeks away, 

today I decided to celebrate the more 

neutral tones of nature.

House Beautiful Inspiration Room

Elements - gold gilt,

eclectic mix of styles and of course neutral tones

on walls and furniture.

Let's start with our background. 

Not a huge fan of white walls, 

I choose a Donald Kaufman paint

DCK - 37

Not really a color, just a lovely backdrop.

It works especially well with design's latest craze 

of burlap and linen upholstery.

Next up, a sea grass rug.

 The natural texture and beauty of these rugs 

can be found on-line or custom sized 

in a multitude of colors and styles.

I like the variation of color in this one.

A great anchor piece for our room, 

this sofa from Wisteria

is elegant without being fussy.

Starting to need a little warmth...

Our Scroll Wall Candleholder

and "Flower Power" mirror

add a rich, warm tone to the room.

This Wool Flowered Ottoman  

keeps things playful and soft.

Now some side tables to keep books and drinks handy.

This lovely 

Plankton Side Table

or Carved Wood Stool are some great options.

Finally, some accessory options...

Golden Fig Vases tucked onto 

a bookshelf or end table in a warm gold finish for 

additional warm tones. 

The Large Grove Bowls are beautiful filled 

with whatever hits your fancy or just enjoy

the soft wood texture on it's own.

Prefer something a little more bold?

These over-sized bowls in

their beautiful, soft hues make a great

statement on a coffee table.

So that's it!

A soft, textural look to ease your way 

into the colors of springtime.
A Natural Beauty.
