Style Me Sundays: Industrial Chic Living Room

How-To, Living Rooms, Style Guides Betty Leave a Comment on Style Me Sundays: Industrial Chic Living Room

Who would have thought the newest interior design trend would spring from such an unlikely source? Industrial chic decor translates the heavy duty, rustic, and ergonomical objects found in factories into functional and stylish pieces for every room in the house. Start with a neutral foundation, like this Almsted rug from IKEA then add fun embellishments. Metal baskets like the perforated metal baskets, and wire baskets are practical means of storage without sacrificing design. Two industrial essentials are the Bordeaux Tin Wall Clock and the Wilcox Studio Light. These accessories look like they are fresh from the factory floor! And don’t forget to juxtapose your hard, cold, materials with soft, colorful, textiles through your furniture selection like this sofa and pillows.

Porcelain Enamel Sconces: Generous Style in a Small Package

How-To, Lighting 101 Betty L Leave a Comment on Porcelain Enamel Sconces: Generous Style in a Small Package

If you are a regular reader of this blog, you know that when it comes to exterior lighting, porcelain lighting is a wise choice thanks to its long-lasting, glass enamel coating that never fades in the sun and is easy to maintain. Yes, porcelain enamel lighting is a bit more expensive than powder coated fixtures, but if you want to purchase a light, install it, then simply admire it every day, then porcelain enamel is absolutely worth the investment. A simple soap-and-water clean up is all it takes to keep porcelain enamel looking like new. This is a huge plus for business owners, and home owners for that matter, who don’t want to buy lights that fade and fall apart within six months.
