STYLE SECRETS

Get Sarah’s eclectic modern country look

PICK A MOTIF

Ensure a flow of style by choosing one theme or pattern and repeat it around the house. Sarah loves stars, which appear on cushions, bunting and other decorative pieces all over her home. Choosing stars rather than hearts makes the look modern instead of super-feminine.

KEEP A SIMPLE BACKDROP

Although Sarah has been creative with accessories and decorative touches, she has kept a plain background of mostly white walls, ceilings and even skirting boards. In some rooms, she has used an interesting wallpaper to create a feature wall, but left the rest of the space a simple white.

CREATE QUIRKY WALL ART

If you can’t find the right print, picture or mirror, make your own, just like Sarah did. Old frames from charity shops can be turned into unique mirrors – buy a piece of bespoke mirror from a glazier. Or think about creating your own box shelving out of old crates.
