What do I do to cover this wall? Where do I find just
the right art to put in that spot? Where can I find what I want in one
place? Sound familiar? I bet! We all have problems finding just the
right thing to solve our decorating woes. Well, TA DA! Signature
HomeStyles is here to save the day. Take a look at the
catalog. It's
full of new styles and looks to help you with any decorating project
involving the perfect look for your wall. These problem-solvers are in
the form of handcrafted prints--painted and finished to become artifacts
for the wall or propped on a shelf. They're visually arresting and right
for any style of decor.
Traditional Decor
If your look is traditional with a touch of Italy, then Pedestal of
Pears Artwork is a good look for you. Handcrafted on wood, it is the
perfect touch for your walls. It goes so well with the Golden Elegance
linens without being to "matchy." What makes the print so unique is the
fact that it looks like an artifact. It has that handcrafted quality
because it is handcrafted.
Flower Power.
Keeping with the traditional look, we have a painted canvas called the
Eternal Blooms Painting. It is crafted to go with the Trailing Vines
linens, but it would work with the other fabrics in the collection. What
I find desirable is the fact that the painting was designed to be hung
unframed, but it could be combined with the Wall Wizards®
or the wire and iron items to form a beautiful wall grouping.
Fruit For Every Room
On page 14 of the
catalog
is a print on wood called Fruit of the Earth Artwork. How perfect
is this look for an entry hall? Combined with the Vine Lights and other
accessories, it gives a unified look to your decor. Why not take the
look to the kitchen? If you have space, place the print under the
kitchen cabinet or prop it on the kitchen counter. Arrange your kitchen
accessories around it and you have a good look that is pulled together
and interesting. Use the print in the bedroom combined with the Vine
Lights. Instead of using the Vine Lights to hold tea lights, use them to
flank the print and drape some of our scarves to form a canopy. This is
a soft romantic look for your bedroom.
Not Just For Walls
If you are lucky enough to have a cabinet that will accommodate the
Impressions of Nature Painting, secure it to the cabinet door. It
would add visual interest to a bland cabinet and add some visual drama.
It is a new way of using wall art. It doesn't have to be used just for
walls. If you do choose to hang the piece, flank it with a grouping of
our dinner plates. Use some plate hangers and choose a complementary
color pattern.
Get Romantic
Feeling romantic? You will love the handcrafted print on wood called
Romantic Treasures. It will give any room that cottage style. Use it
in the entryway above a table. Combine it with anything from the
Comfortable Living spread of the
catalog.
Take the painting to the bedroom. That will light a fire by setting a
peaceful, calm lovey tone. Combine it with fresh flowers in well-loved
crockery and you have the setting for a romantic breakfast in bed.
Romantic Treasures will give any kitchen that cottage in the country
feel.
We have now concluded our tour of the new line of handcrafted prints.
It feels as if we have visited a museum. We have seen beautiful wall
decor that has been handcrafted for you. How Signature HomeStyles!
Until I see you, stay happy, safe and blessed.
