Eclectic living room inspiration board


Think your style is eclectic but not quite sure how to make it work?  Eclectic is all about mixing old with new, antiques with contemporary, or mixing old frame styles with modern upholstery or fresh bright paint colors. Don't be so quick to throw away your grandmothers antique chandelier and wall mirror!~They look great mixed with bright pops of color and texture on modern furniture. I love the look of an antique style chair or sofa covered in modern upholstery like the ones above, creating a more casual look. Also, don't worry about matching! If you love the look of a rustic trunk for a coffee table pull it in! If you love the look of a cowhide area rug, use it! Have fun with throw pillows, the more colors, textures and patterns in this case the better! The great thing about Eclectic is EVERYTHING works as long as it all ties together in some way!
