Art POP!

Hi friends! I have another fun collaboration to share with all of you. Several months ago, Top Art, an art website filled with ready to go art to hang on your walls, contacted me to pick my favorite pieces. After picking my favorite pieces, they sent me one to style to give you all ideas! The painting that I picked is by Michelle Oppenheimer and is called Emerald Flight. The colors in this piece of art are just stunning. Take a look at how I took this painting and styled it with some of my favorite furniture and accessories from Slate Interiors here in Charlotte. When thinking of how to style this piece, my thought was to give it the perfect entry way look. I love how all  of this turned out and could even picture this set up in a mid-mod, vintage dining room. Take a look at how it evolved from the beginning to the finished product. Thanks to my great photographer from Smitten and Hooked, too! I could not have captured these beautiful photos without their help!

So what do you think? Thanks again Top Art for inviting me to collaborate with you. I enjoyed every minute of it!

Till next time!

Coffee Table Pop

Everybody has a coffee table in their living space but a lot of times we get stuck with how to accessorize it! Recently, I was approached by Chairish, an online marketplace to come up with my take on the perfect coffee table styling. If you haven't visited their website, go now! They offer a unique assortment of vintage and eclectic finds from independent sellers and shops. I love haunting this site to see what I can find to truly make a space look special. Take a look to see how I take their gold faux bamboo coffee table and make it POP with fun accessories.

Let's break down these elements of the perfect coffee table styling! First, you have to start with a great coffee table. I found this one on Chairish. What I loved about this table was the gold accents but also the open concept which allows you to really spice it up with fun goodies!

I picture these blue vases placed on either side of the coffee table.  I love the color but also love that they give the coffee table interest and height.

Next, I would place this tray in the middle of the table with the brass pineapple, a few colorful Chinese paintbrushes and a Diptyque candle.

On either side of my coffee table,  I would place my favorite coffee table books. I love this one by Eddie Ross! Stack them up!

I love this green malachite box and think it would be so pretty sitting atop a pile of coffee table books!

Can you tell I have a thing for blue? This lovely bowl would add interest and color to the bottom of the coffee table. 

I don't know about you, but I keep most of my Architectural Digest magazines. Not only are they great reads, but they are also great coffee table pieces. I would stack these on the bottom on all four corners of the table.

This is actually a vintage brooch! Coral and gold are so pretty and I think you could add these on your tray or on top of your magazines and coffee table books. Not only are they pretty, but they are also great conversations starters! 

Last but not least, this great overdyed rug is the perfect piece for your now styled coffee table to rest!

How do you style yours?
