In this weekly column, I'm bringing you stylish home decor tips and finds for less. This week, we're loving stripes. For more decor inspiration, check out my blog, A Vintage Splendor.
Striped décor is generally connotated with east coast beach cottages and nautically inspired rooms, but stripes are a neutral (more so than say, leopard!) that can work in a variety of spaces as well as year round. Just like it doesn’t have to feel beachside retreat, stripes don’t have remind you of awnings either. A classic rugby stripe is elegant and traditional, while colorful watercolored stripes are modern and casual chic.
Bright punchy throw pillows, like this one are definitely a great piece to bring out for the spring and summer to liven up the space. But, a golden hue rug, like this one can bring the spirit of fall and warmth to your home.
A striped headboard can add drama to your master suite with a monochromatic look or add a fun pattern to a teen room while mixing in colors like kelly green or deep fuchsia. My favorite way to bring the stripes home is with original, yet affordable artwork. I scour Etsy and I always happen to find a one of a kind piece that is fabulous and within budget.
If you prefer to bring fashion home and love playing with patterns, mix floral and striped decorative pillows to rejuvenate a tired sofa. And for those of you who are venturing into the world of patterns and colors, opt for a decorative storage container that is functional and still adds some texture to your home.
