Home Decor for Kids (Girls)

Hi guys!!

As promised, as a follow up to my last post I've put together some inspiration boards for home decor for girls! I personally think it's easier to create a bedroom for girls that will last them through their teens (but maybe that's because I'm a girl). I covered some basic 'rules' to creating a 'child-to-teen' room in my boys post but one rule that's usually saved for the fairer sex is that little girls love pink!

With this is mind I've come up with some ways you can use pink without turning your rooms into Barbie's dream palace...unless of course you want to...

Personally I love pink but it can be a touch overpowering if used incorrectly. Pairing pink with neutrals or white will definitely help tone it down a touch. Try throwing in a few navy accessories for a dash of youthful sophistication.
 


Shop the look: 1) 'Amirah Blue' duvet cover - Aimee St Hill
                        2) 'Spring 3' throw pillow - Aimee St Hill
                        3) 'Rain 10' throw pillow - Garima Dhawan
                        4) 'Ikat Damask Navy'  throw pillow - Patty Sloniger
                        5) 'Dotty in Pink' art print - EbiEmporium 


The great thing about pink is that it can liven up a space in minutes! Team pink with orange and turquoise for a fun playful look or keep it simple with white for a girly boudoir that she'll love forever!


Shop the look: 1) 'Hearts' shower curtain - Louise Machado
                        2) 'Pink Modern Baroque' shower curtain - Aimee St Hill
                        3) 'Leela Orange' quatrefoil mirror - Aimee St Hill

Whatever you decide to do with pink remember to have fun!
Happy decorating!! :)

Home Decor For Kids (Boys)

Hi guys!!!

I've been wanting to do this post for a while but I hadn't got round to it until now (mainly because I've been trying to figure out how best to structure it). I've decided to cover kid's home accessories over a few posts since there are so many great products and ideas out there. Today's post is all about boys!

I've noticed more and more that people are interested in creating children's spaces that they can enjoy well into their teens so that will be the focus of today's post.

It seems that the key to doing this is to keep to a fairly understated colour scheme and find accessories that are fun and bold without being specifically child-like. That Thomas the Tank Engine wall mural will be the first thing to go when your little boy starts wanting to bring home girls!

Check out these great products to liven up your boys bedroom!
Shop the look: 1) 'Phone Box' modern clock - Aimee St Hill
                         2) 'Leela Navy' duvet cover- Aimee St Hill
                         3) 'Boy Chocca Numbers' framed art print - Sharon Turner
                         4) '1932' throw pillow - Catherine McDonald
                         5) 'Goodnight Nobody' throw pillow - Danny Ivan
                         6) 'Nautical Lines' throw pillow - Holli Zollinger

Of course there's nothing wrong with Thomas the Tank Engine! But if you don't want the expense of redecorating over and over try limiting the very child-like items to things like throw pillows and wall art - small accents that can be cheaply replaced or removed when the child grows out of them.

Shower curtains are a great way to turn an otherwise understated bathroom into a child friendly environment. There are tons on the market and the great thing about them is that even if you pick a really child-like one it can be easily swapped out for a more teen friendly one later! 
 

Check out these great products to brighten up your boys bathroom!
Shop the look: 1) 'Misfits' shower curtain - Andi Bird
                        2) 'Magnetic' shower curtain - Caroline Okun
                        3) 'Pass This On' shower curtain - Danny Ivan
                        4) 'Fish' quatrefoil mirror - Aimee St Hill

Thanks for reading guys! Keep you eyes peeled for my girly home accessories post and perhaps a few other child-friendly rooms over the next few weeks!

Take care and happy decorating! :)

Yellow & Grey Is Here To Stay

Hi guys!!

I've been absolutely dying to show you some of the new designs I've added to my DENY Designs collection!! Some of you might remember this design...

Well it's been pretty popular lately so I thought wouldn't it be great if there were a set of products that matched it! With that in mind I designed a yellow mini collection. I've even put together some handy inspiration boards and here they are!!!


Shop the look:   1) 'Amirah Neutral' throw pillow
                        2) 'Branch Out' duvet
                        3) 'Diamonds' throw pillow
 
Shop the look:   1) 'Amirah Neutral' shower curtain
                        2) 'Branch Out' shower curtain
                        3) 'Amirah Yellow' shower curtain

Shop the look:   1) 'Amirah Neutral' throw pillow
                        2) 'Amirah Yellow' throw blanket
                        3) 'Diamonds' throw pillow

I found so many great yellow products while I was surfing for inspiration! I didn't want to leave any out so I created this list of 6 lively yellow pillows :)


Shop the pillows:
1) 'IKAT Pillow' - Festive Home Decor                      4) 'Trevino Yellow' - Heather Dutton
2) 'Amirah Yellow' - Aimee St Hill                            5) 'Sunshine Yellow' - Willa Skye Home
3) 'Branch Out' - Aimee St Hill                                6) 'Throw Pillow Ikat' - Chic Decor Pillows

While I was surfing I also found a list which includes one of my pillows (see number 9) so naturally I had to include it!!

 
See it?? 
Thanks a million Pure Home for that feature!!! I'm sure it's had something to do with my increased sales recently :) To shop the products on the Pure Home list click here.

I think it's safe to say that if you like yellow there's no shortage of products to satisfy your appetite!

I've got plenty of other new things up my sleeve as well as a few projects that I can't wait to start and subsequently share! Until then,

Happy decorating!! xx

9 Fabulous Illustrated Pillows

Hi guys!!

Lately I'm really digging what I call 'hipster' home decor. You know, white walls with pops of bright colour, mismatched, quirky accessories and the occasional piece of refurbished 70's furniture. You know?? The kind of place that might house a trendy graphic designer or crafty collector of mason jars!

Are you with me? Just in case you're not here are some examples.



One of the things I love about this style is that pretty much anything goes! Funky illustrated accessories can hang out with bold graphic throws and that old dated couch suddenly looks cool again with those unusual cushions you bought from that place you can't remember the name of! 

If you're looking to liven up your couch and you happen to like this style then you're in luck!
I've done a bit of digging around the DENY Designs website today and put together a list of 9 pillows that are just perfect for adding a bit of fun to your living room!

1) 'Bright Roses' - Aimee St Hill                           6) 'Technicolour Raindrops' - Fimbis
2) 'Cross Out Black' - Wesley Bird                       7) 'Banquet of Flowers Love' - Julia Da Rocha
3) 'Illustration' - Aimee St Hill                               8) 'Girl' - Aimee St Hill
4) 'Triangle Seas' - Pattern State                          9) 'Dreamer' - Holly Sharpe
5) 'Honaw' - Kris Tate

All these fabulous throw pillows (with the exception of pillow number 8) and more are available right now at DENY Designs.com so head over and take a look!

Until next time, happy decorating!! :)
