Inexpensive Wall Art - HomeGoods


THIS POST IS FROM ROOM REMIX - THE BLOG .

I was in HomeGoods the other day and saw what I thought was a great option for inexpensive wall art!


These are peel and stick, but I thought if you wanted a little more custom look they would look great matted and framed, or just framed. They had other options there as well, but the geometrics were my favorites and one of the few styles that I felt would be suitable for framing because each pattern is on an individual sheet. (also they look rather shiny in these photos because I was taking a picture of the package, but they actually have a fairly matte finish.)


Don't know if your local HomeGoods has them or not, but at $14.99 for a pack of 9 (that was the price on the geometrics) it's certainly worth checking out!

luxury floor design


Heavy American style furniture


American leather is known mostly like material suitable for furniture upholstery which furniture looks spectacular and luxury. The natural materials are the key to the appropriate furnishing in Wild West style. Wood, stone, metal and leather are the basic materials used in the furniture. Furniture made look older is always suitable for interior in Old American Style.
Furnishing in this style is rather crude and tomboyish. The furniture is massive, heavy and solid without any unnecessary decorations and ornaments. Extremely distinguishing mark in furnishing is the use of leather – if you want to effect a real western interior then this should be the thing on which you have to make the biggest accent. The leather is traditionally represented not only in West man’s clothes but also in their home interior.


The accessories and decorative elements that exalt American design in furniture have big proportions – antlers, hides of killed animals, huge bowls with everlasting flowers. Except for the above mentioned, distinguishing mark for the West is the presence of iron fireplaces, candlesticks and lanterns. These elements have secondary importance in furnishing just after the furniture, but their contribution to the interior atmosphere is as well significant.

Kitchen floor design


Kitchen floor design

The floor design is not only an aspect of kitchen modeling. It is the mostly important stage in the interior design. Always plan your floor area first. It is easy to change the furniture or appliance, but after all, to change the floor is the hardest thing. So spend time considering your options. You can either have the same material throughout to merge the areas together or use different types to create specific zones. If you have opted for dark units, a pale floor will help to lift the space. Alternatively, light furniture can easily take a strong, densely coloured floor. Remember that any kitchen covering should be hard-wearing, slip and stain resistant as well as easy to clean, so take into account if your garden access is via the kitchen and if you have pets.
A tiled floor is ideal for the kitchen with popular options being slate, limestone, ceramic and porcelain, while a wooden surface will add warmth to dining and lounge areas. Consider using different designs of the same wood, such s boards and parquet woodblocks. You could also vary the direction in which the floor is laid. To care the best design, it is important to use flooring that can link different areas and furniture.
If you are tempted to use different flooring, you should be prepared for more expense and different suppliers and fitters to get the job done. There will also be the issue of how to clean each floor. One way around this is to use laiminate, which offers the look of wood, stone and ceramic but can be installed by one fitter.

Abisko Washbasin from Eumar - exclusive design


The Abisko Washbasin from Eumar is one of the most innovative ideas in the interior design this year. It brings us back to nature. Inspired by the unspoilt waterfalls of the Swedish National Park Abisko, the sink is unfettered by pipes. 

 An extraordinary, sculptural piece, the Abisko washbasin captures the freshness of mountain streams as water cascades down the length of the sink to slip away down a discreet floor-level grill.

Ways to light the living room


Often the living room is considered to be the center of the daily life. It’s there that you take a rest after a busy day at work watching television, inviting guests or entertaining the children. It may be the case that you’re not able to notice but all of these activities depend on the lighting. Bright and warm living rooms attract more attention than the rest of the room. To create the effect more than a fixture or a simple lamp will be needed.
Regardless, the living room of your choice needn’t be expensive for the effect to be achieved. The room should be lightened using its elements to achieve the effect and simply employing more light. Such elements are the rugs and furniture, walls and in some occasions – accessories. These several ideas are easily employed.
More sunlight should be used as it is the best light for a room. Having larger windows allows you to use them as the only source of light throughout the day. Combined with yellow or cream area rugs they help you enjoy a room that is brighter and doesn’t depend on a non-natural light source.
It should be noted that there are two types of lighting that can be combined for an effect- ambient and task lighting. Sconces that are mounted provide ambient light that can replace a lamp. Task lights are used to light areas for reading books, where someone plays or the family watches television. Ensure you consider all the areas. Color can be brought into the room by the use of oriental rugs that easily become a focal point.
Don’t consider fixtures that hang high. It has been a trend for some time for the designers to move lights far from the ceiling. To achieve a better effect lights should be stationed along walls and you shouldn’t rely only on a single chandelier. Controlling lighting on a wall is achieved easier and is calming for the eye. When talking about lighting a particular area (or task lighting), think about using a floor lamp, regardless of the fact that it uses more area. It can be easily moved to a place of your interest. For a narrower premise recess lighting is a good choice that is able to create atmosphere.
Let your items be lightened. Are there any sculptures, antique collections or paintings you aim to present to your visitors? Having spotlights in your living room is a way this can be accomplished. Sconces can light up wall accessories when stationed on either side and the same is achievable with movable lights that can be stationed on different walls. A focal point can be created when rugs and spot lighting are combined. When rugs are braided they are pleasing for the eye and are a great addition to the wooden furniture in your home.
Having to rely on non-natural light is a choice you have to make sometimes. Be sure to go for fabrics that are bright and avoid dark ones. Such fabrics that are both bright and soft will do well for rugs, carpets, upholstery and curtains. Heavier colors should be limited so that the room accents are preserved and you’re sure that the latter dominate. Earth colors in your scheme can be brought to life with rugs having red color or blue pillows that are bright.

Come Inside...


and see the interior of this Georgian home 
done by Joseph Minton.


This is the most fabulous space.
Check out the Chinoiserie piano.
The potted palms, the wall brackets, urns, etc etc.
I love this. 
( i would prefer less blue...but that is just me)
There is so much thought and 
'accidental perfection.'
It doesn't seem 'decorated.'
It just looks as though someone worldly,
sophisticated, and fabulous lives here.
And isn't that our job??
-To make people, 
with enough money to hire us
look like they are 
WAY BETTER, WAY COOLER, 
and WAY MORE FABULOUS 
than they really are???
heheheheheheh
no really,
it's true.
I have soooooooooooo many stories.
Because of this dining room... 
Isn't it wonderful to be inspired????
I am doing a job now- 
where I making the dining room a library, 
with the dining in the center of it.
It will be great.
When you do the classics-
you don't really ever have to 
re-decorate unless you choose to.
(uhh oh!!!)

Would you rather live in 
a classically designed home  
or a home styled with latest trends?

-choose trends, 
so that we designers will continue to have work.
please please please

No judgement here,
I am just curious.

oh yes...............
HAPPY HALLOWEEN
Meow Meow
...a table for two,
and a bowl of milk please!!!!

later.....i am off to work XXXX's

The Ocean Floor

Friday, October 29, 2010


I am loving this rug.
“Alpha” is an exquisitely handcrafted carpet, bold in simplicity but far-reaching in effect. This eco-conscious rug utilizes surplus wool yarn that would otherwise go to waste. GoodWeave certified and handcrafted in Nepal using a traditional Tibetan knot.
Patterns begin with fragment of a familiar motif into something more abstract. Traditional organic patterns make an appearance, though they seem faded, as if printed on textiles left too long in the sun. The collection is hand-tufted in 100% New Zealand wool and silks, with jute and flax as accents.
LOVE THIS ONE
I could do a room around this rug in my sleep.

Phoenix by Carini Lang

A small scrap of Ming Dynasty-era textile inspired Phoenix. Re-scaled and re-colored by Joseph Carini in intense hues, the pattern soars from past to future. Carini Lang employs high tensile strength hand spun silk, pure botanical dye and complex Tibetan knot techniques from antiquity to craft this carpet.

The magical textures and colors of the ocean floor create an underwater wonderland. The creatures and plants live together in a beautiful, flowing world that changes with the seasons and tides. The Ocean Floor 10'x12' tapestry is hand-tufted in New Zealand wool, designed by Angela Adams.

I was wondering.....
what do you think of the carpet above?
The ocean floor?

I thought it was really unusual.
Of course I think it would look best 
in a contemporary or a modern setting.
with as little competition as possible.
I think that because 
it would be much less work for me
::
Blues, purples, and more blues are not 
what I am most comfortable working with
as far as layering goes.
I would end up focusing on the greens.

I would love to see what 
someone else's 'fresh eyes' would do 
with the ocean floor carpet.

i am going to bed now...tomorrow is a retail design day for me XXX's
