Today, I have a special guest blogger, Jennifer, who writes for Arcadian Lighting and she will share her thoughts about animal-inspired decor. Let's hear what she has to say.
Hi all! I’m Jennifer and I write for Arcadian Lighting Blog, a site that chronicles the latest lighting designs and trends around the world. I've been writing about home decor since graduating university and have loved it ever since. I'm addicted to patterned fabrics, Jonathan Adler, chaise lounges, old doors, milk glass jars, antiques, and chandeliers. Mix and Chic's owner Jessie always shares fabulous homes and her own fave interiors with readers regularly - and I'm so lucky to be providing my own sneak peek into some wild homes with animal-inspired decor.
Want to know where the wild things live? They hide in stylish table decor, wall art and furniture. Some are even seen in lighting designs such as lamps and ceiling lights. From discrete jungle cat stripes to ostentatious antlers, a touch of wildlife can turn any ordinary space into something extraordinary. Here's some inspiration...
Chic like cheetahs
The animal-inspired furniture and area rug in this elegant living room is what gives this space a wild edge - despite the bold patterns the home decor remains refined.
Zexy zebra
Just a burst of wild detail, like these zebra-print square ottomans, is all a space needs. We also love the starburst wall art in the form of a mirror over the fireplace.
Dashing deer
A sitting room gets an instant modern mountain lodge makeover with a pair of eclectic antlers as wall decor. Make sure to use a pair of light fixtures to brighten up the room.
Pretty peacocks
Subtle but oh-so-charming, these blue and white peacock-print pillows look great next to organic table decor elements like seashells and flowers.
Cute as a cub
Wildlife inspiration isn't just for grown-ups - a colourful jungle motif in a nursery is a fun theme that can grow with the child. The wall art decor shown here really sets the tone of the room.
Beautiful butterflies
A whimsical touch in a nature-infused bedroom are wall decor decals - these black butterflies seem to be taking flight across the entire corner of the space. Add beautiful ceiling lights to showcase the lovely decals.
Marvellous moo
Classic black and white is stylish when cow patterns moooove in - the ottoman and rug look fashionable paired with organic wicker furniture and bamboo potted plants. Add a touch of femininity to the space by adding a pair of baby pink lighting fixtures.
Lavish leopard
The smallest of details can really make or break the style of a room -- these animal-print throw pillows are just enough for a cozy sitting area.
