Colour Trend - Milk Thistle

Natural and botanical colour schemes are a versatile and classic choice for a wide variety of home interiors as they can be paired with both neutral and bold colour schemes. A MILK THISTLE colour palette provides a soft and dusky purple hue that is subtle yet colourful and will create a classic elegance in any room of the home. The light and dusky hue will provide a soft and chic finish in both contemporary and classic rooms.

For a fresh and bright finish that is perfect for the upcoming summertime months; pair milk thistle with off white or pale cream hues to open up the room and create a classic elegance in your chosen space. If you prefer a more diverse sprinkling of colour then a selection of milk thistle and pastel colours such as mint, lilac, freesia and rose that will create an English garden inspired feel in your chosen room. A floral wallpaper will compliment this colour palette and provide a feminine charm within your home. For a more masculine twist on this colour scheme then partner milk thistle with monochrome or tonal grey colour schemes that will create a rich and sophisticated finish in your interior space. Team with a monochrome geometric wallpaper for a visually striking modern focal point.

Floral patterned cushions, curtains and rugs will create a striking focal point within the room and look perfect in milk thistle, lilac and pink and peach hues. These can be teamed with wildlife inspired prints featuring mice, squirrels or deer for an extra twist of British elegance. If you prefer a more sleek and contemporary interior style then add some monochrome and milk thistle coloured fabric in bold stripes or geometric prints that will look particularly stylish on a plain leather sofa or in a minimal home interior. For a more traditional and period look opt for some milk thistle velvet or satin fabrics and upholster a sofa, chair or chaise lounge to create an elegant, stately home inspired design.

White or cream painted furniture will create a fresh and cosy finish against the pastel hues of the milk thistle colour scheme and will create a spacious openness in smaller rooms of the home. Classic oak furniture will also look great alongside a milk thistle colour palette and will compliment the natural botanical undertones of the colour. Opt for large and chunky oak items for a country cottage design or lighter, smoked oak items for a more modern rustic twist. If glamour and elegance are more your style then choose some mirrored furniture items such as wardrobes, dressing tables or dining tables that will create a focal point that can be further complimented with a selection of crystal vases, candle holders and a statement chandelier that will take pride of place in the centre of the room.
