Bee happy ..... add stripes


A great way to add a wow factor to any room is to use stripes.
Stripes can be used on walls, windows, floors or accessories. I recently came across these images from Pinterest and love the way the stripes have been painted on the walls, this is a great way of achieving the industrial look at the same time of adding a feature to any room.


 
Softer colours can help make a stripe feel more feminine and elegant and can be used in a female bedroom, bathroom or any room where you don’t want to much of an impact but still want some interest.
I just adore this room with the yellow border it’s also a great way of adding interest but because of the one stripe around the room other stripes can also be introduced into the scheme. Striped accessories in the form of a cushions or throws would work really well in this room but so would a striped blind.
 
Apollo Blinds have just launched their Twilight range of blinds and these would be a perfect way of adding stripes into any room.
 
These grey stripe blinds are perfect for an industrial style bedroom or office but I think a darker colour would make more of an feature in a lounge/dining room.
How will you use stripes in your home?

Bee happy ..... a chill out dining room

It's time for another reader's room.
 
This is a dining room but a chill out room at the same time full of vintage treasures and finds.
 
The neutral background lets the accessories speak for themselves.
 
 
I just love the fireplace which has been put to good use as a display area for vintage jars/bottles.

 
It was this couples wedding anniversary at the time and this sign is just perfect for them.

 
Modern and vintage accessories sit happily together side by side and just adds more character to this wonderful room.
