When assessing new window coverings, choose ones in neutral tones such as Polywood® plantation shutters in white or a wood-like stain. These will easily complement any style or color palette and can stay in place when you switch room colors down the line.
Natural Textures
Natural textures aren’t going anywhere this year. Fibers in vogue include weaved material in rugs or baskets, rustic wood, and twine. We’re seeing these textures popping up in new places such as on headboards, furniture, and conversation pieces. Breathe new life into an old belonging with a small project like wrapping a frame in twine or creating an interest piece out of old wood.
Adding textures to your home through window treatments add another level of interest to your décor. Reclaimed wood shutters are constructed from historic, knotted wood that was once part of doors or buildings. The wood has unique twists and knots that bring an intrinsic feel to your house. Additional window coverings that bring texture into your home are Ovation® wood shutters or natural woven shades.
Metals
Accessories and furnishings that incorporate varying metals are showing up across Boise. Wrought iron, brass, and nickel are especially stylish in 2017. You can incorporate metals in your décor by adding industrial, rustic, and/or vintage pieces such as stools, benches, or light fixtures that are built from metals. Also, don’t hesitate to utilize nickel or pewter in your sinks or hardware for a more contemporary look.
Sliding barn doors and barn door shutters are a fantastic way to get the visual benefit of metals and add an industrial or rustic style to your space. Barn doors are constructed from solid wood and have a variety of hardware to choose from such as rollers, sliding tracks, and door handles that are made of different metals.
