BLUE AND WHITE CHRISTMAS HOME DECOR FT. JOHN LEWIS

Monday 24 November 2014

The Christmas Season is nearly here and that means we are all not only doing our christmas shopping but also decorating our houses and adding that Seasonal Christmasy and cosy feel to our interiors. Red is the traditional colour that we all associate with Christmas however there are so many other beautiful ways to decorate your living space with different colour palettes. Today I have put together a beautiful Blue and White Scheme featuring John Lewis's christmas decor accessories which I personally think are absolutely beautiful. The great thing about this scheme below is that some of these items such as the quote cushion and the deer accessory is something that can stay up all year around making it a great investment piece for your home.

CHRISTMAS LOUNGE DECOR IDEAS 2014

Wednesday 12 November 2014

I think it is fair to say that pretty much most of us get very excited around this time of the year as Christmas is slowly approaching us. This time of the years has a magical feel to it and  in my family it is a tradition to always deeply embrace it and with that comes the decor of the house.  I have come up with two pretty simple and basic Christmas Decorating Ideas to give you a little bit of inspiration of ways to style your houses or apartments.

What's great about the schemes I have come up with is that apart from the obvious decor items such as the reindeer heads, christmas wall art and of course it wouldn't be christmas without a christmas tree most items can be used within your decor throughout the whole year which is great for anyone on the budget or if you would  like to decorate in a what I like to call multi tasking way where items can have a multiple purpose.

SCHEME ONE : SOFT GREYS, CREAMS AND POPS OF GOLD

In the scheme above the colours are more toned down however to add a bit of contrast the gorgeous Log Rack from Thos Baker has been used this great piece not only adds a very chrstmasy feel to the interior but will also add a bit of warmth to the space throughout the whole year. The Bobby Berk Coffee Table  with a gorgeous shagreen perimeter works beautifully with the Arhaus Sofa whilst the slight pops of gold with the Candle , Faux Table Flowers and the Reindeer Ornament add a nice pop of contrasting colour without taking away from the neutral overall scheme. The Grey Cushion and Cream Cushion are very subtle however because of the faux fur texture they add a nice soft feel to the scheme whilst the Lamp is more of an industrial style item which works very well with the table.

SCHEME TWO: DARK GREYS, CHROMES  AND WHITES


Grey & Wood Christmas Decor





Whilst this scheme is still quiet subtle and neutral darker tones have been used with more industrial style items which give this scheme a more masculine look. The Sofa adds the most drama to the room with its dark grey tones however to add a more feminine feel to the space the Kathy Kuo Cushions and faux fur Blanket are both very subtle soft and with its textures as well as the subtle print on the white cushion. The rusticy items such as the Coffee Table, Console, and Eicholtz Trunk add a strong and bold look to the scheme which once again works perfectly for christmas and throughout the year.


APOLLO BLINDS: TWILIGHT

Tuesday 30 September 2014

Today's post features the latest made to measure blinds  by Apollo Blinds called Twilight.  " Twilight is an innovative and stylish new way of managing light in any room in any home. Its unique duo roller fabric system incorporates both solid and sheer fabric panels which provides varying degrees of light or shade. Functional and gorgeous…" 

Being an interior designer I can be quiet picky when it comes to decor however having looked at the concept and style I personally think these would look great in many different settings to show you how to incorporate these blinds in to your preferred setting I produced two schemes where I included the new blind which is being launched by the Apollo Blind Brand.

First is this bedroom seen in the composition I put together below. I love the neutral grey combo with a pop of an aqua blue it adds a vibrant touch to the room whilst the earthy tones still keep it cosy . Contrast adds a bit of drama to the bedroom which personally I like as it creates a more interesting feel to the space. 








 





























 SHOP THE LOOK: BED | BEDSIDE TABLE | LAMP | RUG | TRUNK | PAINTING |

The second design I produced was based around a lounge room setting, this time I kept it quiet minimal yet still interesting due to the various textures and tones seen in the furniture items. The setting is very moody and the pop of gold gives it a luxury feel to the space. 



                               SHOP THE  LOOK: COFFEE TABLE | SOFA | LAMP | RUG  | MIRROR 

Both settings that I have designed fit in with the Twilight Blind design , due to the simplistic and minimalistic design they are very easy to incorporate in to your own room setting. I designed completely two different settings in order for you to see that they are super versatile and look great within a room setting.
