Translating Trends: Animal Prints
Bold animal prints are statements that are always in style! Keep animal prints fresh by incorporating them into your home in surprising or unexpected ways. Don't be afraid to mix different animal prints, but be very careful not to go overboard! Mix the basic black and white of zebra with a more colorful animal print, for example. Try accent pieces like pillows, wall hangings, chairs, ottomans or vases.
Use leopard print fabric as contrasting trim on an occasional chair or pony hide tiles as an elegant wall detail. Try a snakeskin print lampshade for a hint of cool, or brighten up any room with faux animal prints in a variety of bold colors.
Check out this leopard print chair; it adds just enough print to liven up the space. Since it is paired with a mirror chest, the print reflects and incorporates into the chest, too! The simple design and intricate details of the legs and arms add a touch of class and elegance without taking away from or adding to the bold pattern.
