Inspired by Nature

Often nature plays a huge role in the decoration of our home. I am not only talking about flowers and plants, but accessories, posters, details on cushions and bedsheets, prints on carpets, etc. I was searching the internet for some new ideas and I came across hundreds of lovely cushion inspired by nature. Let's see some of the best.

This ostrich faux feather cushion is available at Marks& Spencer for about 40$. This is one of my favorite, inspired by the Great Gatsby and the 20s this cushion is both cozy and stylish.

Here the feathers are only used as a detail on the cushion. Done in black and white by Bloomingville this cushion can be a very nice accessory to a white sofa.

This one is a bit more colorful and expressionistic. But I think it will very well fit a bit more eclectic living space. For the more bold ones I think it can perfectly fit a velvet peacock-blue sofa. I found this one on a website called Lovely Decor. The cushion is available in different sizes an the price is as high as $33.

This one is again with feathers but is more glamorous than the ostrich one. However, think twice before you purchase it because with the wrong furniture you will go from chick to tawdry. In my personal opinion this can fit very well on a contemporary white-leather sofa. I found in on Wallace Sacks Linens.

 I found this amazing rustic looking cushion that resembles the soft blue flecked feathers of the bird Kookaburra. The blue on the feathers of the bird are represented as a washed mixed blue print on the cushion. I personally adore this one! Found it on Etsy for about $70.

This also looks more natural and maybe the washed color prints are done on organic cotton or linen. 

However, those look a bit more eclectic than the the previous one. The blue prints resemble peacock feathers. I found those on Houzz for $46.

This one is very classy and fabulous- look how the feather pattern is entwined! One of my favorite for sure! This one is 100% cotton cushion cover that has been printed in Macclesfield and stitched in London. On the website this is one from a range of cushions inspired by quotes from English authors and poets.The quote here says:  'I am a feather for each wind that blows' from The Winter’s Tale by William Shakespeare.The price is £46.95

Boho Chic

Unconventional and artistic, individual, romantic and free-spirited or in other words Bohemian. If you identify yourself with the former, read ahead and you will find many interesting ideas about how to give your place a bright new twist done in Boho style.

When we talk about Bohemian style incorporated in interior design there are no rules to abide by which makes the whole work of redecorating a place seem like a lot of fun. 

However, it is not that easy a job when it comes to trying to make the place look as you have not put any effort into decorating it. Do whatever you want with the space you have, however, have in mind the following simple tricks in order to be sure that your place is going to look Bohemian and not something else. 

Always stick to bright, saturated colors, the more colors the better. Low-level lounging areas are a trade mark for Bohemian style; they allow for comfort and tranquility. Layering is good, so pile up a couple of vibrant-colored rugs to make the floor catch the eye. The big pillows are a must have- gather several big ones in bright colors and a couple of medium-sized cushions with patchworks. You can also put one of those little roundish cushions which are exactly fitting the Bohemian vision.

Gather books and accessories from different places, the older the books look the better. Being eclectic is good but in Bohemian design you have to go one step further and make the place look as if you have just collected different materials, fabrics, accessories, metals, books, charms and put them randomly around the house. 

Dig up all the vintage things you keep in the attic- lamps, coffee tables, and paintings. Make a collage of framed prints and cover up the wall with 5 to 10 of them; it makes the wall look prettier. You can make bold and unconventional decisions and you are not restricted in any way. Be creative, mix up crystal lamps with patchwork cushions, striped rugs, floral wallpapers, metal accessories.

 Try to be messy but in the good sense. Check up some room interior ideas done in Bohemian style. And remember do not be delicate; be vast and brilliant in your choices!
