Into the Hedgerows

This week we are stepping INTO THE HEDGEROWS with home decor inspired by the Great British countryside. The nature-inspired decor is combined with wildlife-themed accessories to create a cosy and fresh spring-like feel in your home. This look is perfect for creating a homely look that is a perfect combination of modern and classic style.

Wallpaper is a great way of creating visual detail in your chosen interior space. For a fresh summertime look opt for elegant floral print wallpapers or a meadow style wall mural that will look fabulous on a main feature wall. If you prefer a more classic design then opt for some animal wallpaper featuring hedgehogs, garden birds, pheasants or mice that will create a refined country style feel in your home. For a more modern look then opt for bold and colourful wallpapers that will create a contemporary focal point within your home. Team these wallpapers with soft and neutral beige and cream for a relaxed and rustic look or fresh pastels and dusky tones for a pop of stylish and feminine colour.

For a hedgerow inspired interior space, why not include some sumptuous soft furnishings that will compliment this fun and stylish theme. Opt for natural linen, plaid or floral print curtains in classic woodland greens or pastel hues that will look great against a neutral painted feature wall. Accentuate your sofa or oak bed with a selection of nature-inspired cushions that will add a pop of colour and pattern to your interior space. Opt for classic tartan, linen or flower print cushions and intersperse with a selection of traditional cushions featuring, rabbits, foxes, owls and squirrels that will look fabulous against the fresh yet cosy backdrop. Add some coordinating throws that can be draped over the back or arm of a chair or sofa or placed along the base of the bed for added detail.

Choose elegant yet natural accessories that will compliment this wildlife inspired interior design. Woven wicker baskets will make great storage items around the room and can be inserted into bookcases for added country style. Natural wood ornaments and accessories will look wonderful alongside animal-themed ceramics to give a cosy, whimsical look. Place small terracotta plant pots along a mantelpiece, windowsill or sideboard and fill with wildflowers or classic garden roses and hydrangeas for a pop of elegant colour within your chosen room.

Chunky oak furniture will look wonderful with this interior design and will create a homely feel in your home interior. Opt for chunky framed items that will mimic the outdoor woodlands or choose weathered oak items for a more rustic feel. Cream and painted white furniture will add a fresh and uplifting feel to the wildlife inspired decor and can be distressed along the edges, door and drawer fronts for added shabby chic style character. For a more modern design, why not select some grey oak painted furniture with natural wood accents that perfectly combines traditional and contemporary design whilst creating a chic cosiness within the room.
