COLOR OF THE WEEK

 

 I hope your day is as bright and lovely as this! I’m thinking of making this Color of the Week a regular series on Fuji Files, what do you guys think? 

Is it a keeper?

INTERIORS:: Erin Fetherston’s apartment

This photo of Erin Fetherston’s Paris apartment makes me want to try a column of uniform picture frames  in an un-loved corner of my apartment. Ideally these picture frames would cost $2 each and the whole project would take 1 hour – unlikely. Also in love with her chevron wood floors. Yum.

INTERIORS:: PAINTED PICTURE FRAME

I have a big black & white picture frame on a grey wall, and as I’ve said before I’m really wanting to paint the walls a light grey to make my artwork pop more. But maybe I should just paint the frame? About 1/100th the surface area, work, and cost – and it looks great here!

INTERIORS:: WALL ART

I’m of the opinion that you can frame or hang just about anything on your wall and make it look like art. A car? Random paint splatters? A stranger’s face? If it’s expertly framed or on a big canvas, you’re set. You see I’m suffering a bit from a stalled wall of picture frames, possibly being too picky with what goes up. Perhaps I should splatter some paint on a canvas and call it a day? Anyway, here’s some inspiration..

INTERIORS:: HOME THRIFTING

This real home is packed with style and done on a budget. Most of the art and furniture are thrifted or diyed, which just goes to show that, with a bit of style and ingenuity – you can do it! Ideas to take home: collections of thrifted finds displayed on a simple white backdrop makes for high style, like candlesticks, picture frames, and books.

INTERIORS:: PICTURE FRAMES + WHITE WALLS

I have one empty white wall in my bedroom. Perhaps I should throw together a selection of frames, necklaces, and antlers like this. And a collection of Moroccan lamps (see bottom left corner). No, I don’t have a collection of Moroccan lamps… yet.

Inspiration: Variety

This space uses a style practice that I love so much: variety. We’ve got a modern poster, traditional landscape and still life paintings, family photos, all combined expertly. There’s some symmetry in the lamps to anchor the space, and the beautiful branches to liven up the lines. So much to love here.
