I love all different types of decor for a home.  I wouldn’t say I’m set in one style whatsoever because each home has its own personality. That’s like saying I only eat broccoli with my chicken or something like that!   I love mixing antiques with modern decor or throwing in shabby chic to the mix.

What I’ve been really liking lately is this masculine style in decorating.  I watched Property Brothers one night on HGTV and they used a certain wallpaper in one of their renovations and then a few weeks later I saw it on The Nate Berkus show.  It’s simple enough if you’re scared of wallpaper but versatile enough where it won’t go out of style anytime soon.  It’s by Graham & Brown.  I’m considering using it in our next project- the FROG (finished room over garage) which will be a 5th bedroom/playroom.  I think it will make a great accent wall considering we have two large leather club chairs that my husband refuses to sell!

Since I don’t have them I may go with this pillow because my color palette for this home is similar.

So for a little change- try a little menswear- we woman do it with our blazers when we dress so why not try it in your home too!
