2016 Decorating Trends For The Home





LETS BREAK DOWN THE TRENDS.......


Use Pink In A Grown Up Way That Says WOW


One of the two Pantone Colors of Year is Rose Quartz.  One might look at this color and think how do I use it in a space other than a nursery?  Well its easy and you can actually get a pretty great outcome when pulled in with a deep color like a hot hue we can't seem to get enough of - navy blue!

*Refer to my post Pantone Announces Two Colors Of The Year to get the skinny on the other chosen color, why two colors were chosen, and what they represent.
I like this very soft shade of pink that has a hint of coral to it.  The color is called Pink Fairy by Benjamin Moore (2006-70).  

I would then add lovely shades of navy blue through upholstered furniture, window treatments, and decor.


I cannot stop thinking about this Robert Allen Fenway Garden in Navy Blazer fabric!  It has the navy blue and pink color combinations we are seeing and loving!  And the bright green pulls the floral motif so the design pops with joy.  

I want to use it on drapes and pillows!  I may even frame it and hang it on a wall.....it has a large repeat.

Get a luxurious look by adding to your room this West Elm Rochester sofa in velvet blue, ink upholstery.


Finally use texture on your sofa by adding these Target pink Threshold Faux Mongolia pillow.


Metallics Are Everywhere

Wallpaper with a sheen....

If its the year of the gold may I suggest this beautiful York Waverly Centro wallpaper.  I recently had it installed in my own bedroom!


Metallics are in all decor including pillows.  Just look at your local home decor store!
Its metallic and has scallop shapes on it.  So fun! Its the Natural Leather Hide pillow.

Bling out your office in gold with these rich looking fun finds!  These are from Target and this store has much more




Natural Stones Make BIG Impact

Lots of decor can get in on this trend.  
This Swirled Geode Knob from Anthropologie is rockin'!  It fits right in with the natural pulled right from the earth trend for 2016.
Each knob measures between 2.25" to 4" so they will turn simple looking furniture into a piece worth talking about!


Textures of Natural Finishes Feels Cozy On Pillows



Vintage Lighting Is Charming

For the last few years vintage inspired lighting has been the trend.  More options are available ranging in finishes, sizes and looks.  Seeded glass is also popular and used with the Edison bulb for an old time feel.  Many restaurants are big on this look, along with wood on the walls, and industrial elements.  This Kichler Braelyn chandelier is a very hip light.  I've used it for projects and love the look.  


Botanical Inspirations 


Home decor is headed back to nature.  We are seeing more off white colors, walnut, golds and copper finishes.  Designers are infusing botanicals into spaces of the home.  We can see it in pillows, decor, and artwork.  

This Crate&Barrel Tressa Pillow has so many beautiful colors in it!

These artworks are fun and can be purchased in different sizes and frame finishes.
