Country Decorating Ideas | Interior Design Video Lecture | Interior Designing: A Basic Training - Self Help Learning

the great thing about country decorating
is that really you can take something
literally off the road and put it in
your house and it looks really amazing
you know whether it be a wheel axle from
an old stagecoach or a log that you want
to you know use as a table I mean
basically you can pretty much have
inspiration anywhere you know the great
thing about country as well is that it's
a layering effect when it comes to
fabrics and you have Czech floral and
you have big floral and you have stripe
and you have tone-on-tone and you know
country isn't about being so serious and
it's about mixing the different textures
and the different graphics together it's
also about warm woods and that it
doesn't have to all be matchy-matchy so
you don't need to all go dark wood or
light wood it's a nice medium warm tone
and it's worn pieces it's floorboards
that have been worn through with
wormholes and things like that
there's crocheting it's a little bit on
the shabby chic side but not so messy
there's still some clean lines to it and
it's got some really great wood elements
so it's very woodsy there's a lot of
pattern going on and think a little
vintage old like that Warne jean jacket
that you've been wearing for a really
long time or like those cowboy boots
that you would put on think those type
of leathers you never want it to be too
perfect and then you're on your way to
go in country
