It’s been one year since my 2014 nursery trends posts & I’m now a proud aunt to my little niece and nephew. I’m one of their biggest fans and can’t get enough time with them…I’ve fallen head over heels for these two. Having helped with two nurseries in 2014, I’m so excited for the upcoming trends for nurseries in 2015, so let’s take a look!
We interrupt this style series for a very important update! The color of the year for 2015 has been announced, the results are in, and the decision is final! Marsala is the new Radiant Orchid…and I like it!
Pantone colors are not only supposed to represent the up-and-coming colors for the year, but colors that represent the momentum and movement in the world. Marsala brings to mind the taste and vibrancy of wine and Indian spices, rich with deep tones of brown and red. It’s a rich, earthy, and culturally diverse color.
So here’s the question: how do we use it? What kind of ideas does it carry? How does it influence us? Color is powerful, and no color is more powerful than red.
Who doesn’t love the Shabby Chic style? It appeals to so many users that I might consider it one of the most-loved styles of interior design (that’s right—I said it!). I think the main reason for this is that it can go in so many different directions that it can have a very different impact from one design to the next. So let’s see what I love about this style so much and why you should love it too!
“Presentation is everything!” This is something my dear friend, Gizella, always said. Whether we were carefully placing plucked mint leaves on the rim of our iced tea glasses or wrapping a gift, she was always making sure that things were “just so” and teaching me how to do the same. Today, I’m going to help you make your Christmas “just so.”
Less is more…it’s really true! Today we are going to take a good look at the minimalist design style. This is a style that I really enjoy, but until now, haven’t found that it’s attainable—I’ve already changed my own mind on that, and hopefully you’ll read on and change yours too! So here it is: minimalist interior design!
