An Inspiring Space

I'm loving the horizontal lines that are painted on the walls as well as the touches of deep pink!

Etsy Edition #7

It's so hard to just choose one Etsy shop every week. There are just so many neat and creative shops! Nevertheless, I chose Nella Designs for her beautiful prints and stationary. (Look at them!) She designs everything from invitations to the wonderful prints I have featured below. (I'm really drooling over the sunshine one! It would go great in a nursery, don't you think?)

From her profile:

"I am a graphic designer from SC who has always had the dream of designing my very own line of cards and other paper items. So I am very excited to get this show up and running!"

Decorating with Red


Since Valentine's Day is only a week and a half away, I thought it would be fitting to feature the color red. Especially, how we can use it in decorating.

Red is actually my favorite color so I'm loving all the photos I found! I'll have to post some of my wedding pictures one day as red was my main color! (Along with ivory and chocolate brown)

My favorite way to use the color red is in accessories around my house. Since having an entire room painted in red can be a bit overwhelming, I appreciate smaller amounts of the color for a bit of drama. The following photos show a few ways to use accessories. In my home, I love to change the accessories for the seasons, a much less expensive alternative to replacing furniture or textiles!

How about pulling out all your red colored books to place on display?

Or create an edible centerpiece using strawberries or red apples.

Pillows, pillows, pillows!

Or, if you can, how about a red accent chair?

Some other ideas I use are: candles, cloth napkins or dish towels as a table runner, or red flowers.

Here's a really neat child's bedroom. Love the wallpaper!

The following photos are ones that I really liked using paint and accessories.

This weeks Etsy shop I'd like to feature is Elly Nelly, a mother daughter team that creates really neat wall decals.

Taken from their profile:

We, 'elly nelly', are a mother & daughter team, Elaine
& Nell Oliver. Both experienced textile designers with an intense
interest in pattern. With our own unique creative approach to design we were inspired to set up our own studio. Our aim is to produce a creative range of designs using different mediums. Wall decals are the first of many products we hope to develop. A fusion of hand illustration & stylized modern graphics bring the 'elly nelly' series alive. From simple organic & nature inspired designs to delicate prints & pattern of all kinds, elly nelly hope you enjoy our designs as much as we love creating them!
