Romantic and pretty,
soft florals in chalky pastels, pink, dusky lavender
creams, old gold and soft dove greys….It looks
wonderful all over the home - a clean, crisp and informal
way of decorating.
Delicate sprigs of feminine floral
patterns take on many guises, from a 1950’s
feel, to a more hand-painted or embroidered appearance.
Everything from bed linen to lampshades is adorned.
A colour-washed paint finish creates
a wonderful backdrop to this story, as it appears
almost transparent. It is most elegant and delicate,
creates an almost ethereal effect. Soft, simple motifs
are stencilled or stamped on to the walls, alternatively
try a light dusting of stencil or stamp pattern sprinkled
over a corner of a room.
A few decorative pieces found
in auctions or junk shops are added to minimalist,
uncluttered rooms. Fabrics are light and wafty, with
much shine and shimmer, furniture is painted in a
solid colour, or colour washed in pastels - but made
to look worn and loved.
