Deliberate Decor

Make carefully considered choices when combining furniture and accessories, as Traci did in her living room.

• Highlight red-painted furniture by pairing it with coordinating accents, such as an artfully draped quilt, a petite pail and a prim artwork.

• Add a dramatic flourish to a small crate turned wall shelf by stringing a tiny cloth panel on a length of jute to partially cover the opening and spotlight the exposed contents.

• Stack overturned wood bowls of various sizes and colors for a sculptural effect on top of a cupboard.
