I was trying to come up with a great way to work in a more organic atmosphere to my living room and found a great way to achieve that with wildlife decor. There are a couple creative ways to make your home incorporate some great rustic elements of that hide-a-way cabin you always wanted, show off some great treasures that you’ve collected over the years or just give your living space a “walk on the wild side” feel.
The Urban Cabin Retreat: Just because you live in a small space doesn’t mean you can’t be free-range. Seek out that woodsy writers retreat in your apt by recreating some great summer mountain cabin motifs. Hang an etched glass mirror of a wildlife scene over your desk or on opposite walls of entrance ways to give the illusion of space and to multiply light in the room. beautiful wildlife home decor is a great motif of the important natural things: literally see yourself in nature. Use oak and warm colors throughout the room and curl up by the stove (or warm radiator) with a relaxing brandy while still living in midtown.
Seasoned Traveler: You’ve been a frequent guest of other countries. Seen everything twice, or at least, you will some day You dream of going on safari, or have the trinkets to remember great exotic weekends. Do you take a steamer trunk while visiting exotic locations? try that trunk as a great coffee table centerpiece. It’s a great storage space and is an interesting conversation piece. I pack mine full of all those loose pillows and blankets so I am always ready for a cozy night planning my next big adventure. There are many different types of trunks, from designer to historic. Your living room is a treasure and should you take off for yet another adventure, you always have great luggage lying around to get you there.
Passion Hunter: If you have that basic neutral tone furniture, fear not, you can incorporate color and texture in clever uses of animal prints. Experiment as you pair leopard and zebra accents- throws pillows and blankets– with brash, saturated color. Wildlife decor is fun, expressive and warm. Don’t be afraid to paint a accent wall a vibrant accent color. Paint is able to hide flaws and easy to apply. It can add depth to even the blandest of rooms and should you mis-match the rest of the room with the particular shade, you can always spend an afternoon with a cup of tea falling back in love with your home with a new shade you pick up from your home supply store. Bright colors and animal prints invigorate a room: don’t be afraid to walk on the wild side!
