Cottage Style
|
|
|
A colorful, comfortable look characterized by painted and/or decorated
furniture with graceful lines, textural elements like baskets, beadboard walls and natural fiber rugs,
weathered finishes and colors taken straight from a lush flower garden.
|
|
Color
- This palette is purely botanical. Light apricot, dusty pink and shades
of green are set off with brighter spots of color like fuschia and sunflower
yellow.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Furnishings
- Make iron and wicker furnishings comfortable and stylish with cushions
covered in floral fabrics. Give secondhand wood furniture a fresh look with
white paint and new knobs.
|
|
|
|
|
Fabrics - Floral fabrics are paired with stripes and solids and
trim and fringe for layer upon layer of visual interest.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Finishes
- Surfaces show wear and tear of age without looking overly rustic. A combination
of surfaces and sheens coexist casually, like this piece of glazed pottery
paired with a weathered tin planter.
