Furniture.
With an upholstery job rarely totaling anything less than expensive, selecting a bold fabric to cover key pieces of furniture requires serious love. But if the attraction is there, look at what the result can be.

Lampshades.
A big trend is to bring color & pattern into a room through lampshades. Such an approach to bringing in pattern requires very little commitment, & is therefore a great place to start if not accustomed to living with bold pattern.

After you decide where to tackle with your choice of pattern, layer them in a delicious way because without layering it tends to give an impersonal, unwelcoming space kind of feel to your home.
While layering patterns works with walls, floors, upholstery, ceilings, window coverings & accessories, it's best to take baby steps when first trying it out. That being said, I recommend starting with pillows, then working your way up. Remember layering patterns involves four main elements: color, scale, shape & texture. So choose wisely & have a yummy time!
peace & love,
