CHEETAH AND ZEBRA OH MY!

Go bold with texture and pattern.   Try these design ideas from the living room of accessories designer William Farwley’s Manhattan Apartment. See the full article at www.elledecor.com.

Love  the cheetah print, pick up pillows or a throw with animal print pattern. Add a little for accent or spread various patterns around the room for continuity and interest. Cover your walls with pictures from top to bottom.  Shop garage sales, the salvation army for great prints.   If you find a great frame but don’t like the picture, take it out.  Use the frame alone.  You could insert a different picture, a large letter for your initial inserted in the middle is also great.

Add a wall of mirrors to a small space,  hot glue a  small medallion at the end of each mirror square. Bring a little sparkle  with a silver or gold garden stool.   Pair it with nickle floor lamps.

Add a little or a lot.  IT’S A CLASSIC LOOK.  Shop www.ballarddesigns.com for a zebra shape or square rug.
