Shabby chic tutorial
Shabby chic style will surely fit the tastes of the most sophisticated people. It surely isn’t for everyone, since it’s important to be extremely consequent while decorating an apartment according to its rules. There’s no place for randomness - all compositions must be planned and fit each other perfectly. But, if interior decoration is your hobby, and additionally you enjoy tinkering, the “aged style” may be a perfect choice for you. Here’s a couple of simple steps, which will allow you to enjoy an apartment a’la Shabby Chic:
-
While selecting wall colors, choose something pastel. It’s all about a delicate and romantic feeling. Whites, dirty pinks and all shades of beige will work great.
-
Furniture time! Shabby Chic style requires “aging” them on purpose. This term is used to describe not only the style of interior decoration, but also the technique of furniture decoration, that gives a “retro effect”. It’s a good idea to paint furniture with several layers of paint (to give it a “flaky” effect), chaffing it or creating fake bark beetle holes. Of course, the older the furniture the better- authentic antiques make the best impression. Old cabinets and chests of drawers can be combined with new furniture, but remember about emphasizing the former.
-
Accessories and decoration in an “aged” style should be as romantic as possible. Wall murals with flower or old wood motifs will work great in this case. You must also find a place for lace, ethereal curtains, pillows with rose motif and frilly covers. Dried flowers, for example- braided into wreaths, will perfectly fit such interior.
Shabby Chic style- light and romantic
If you’ll decide to decorate your apartment in this unique, “aging” style, remember to keep it similar all around your house. Of course, that doesn’t mean that every room must be identical. It’s more about making sure, that every interior is a natural “continuation” of the preceding one. Charming wall murals will help you in decorating your apartment.
Shabby Chic wallpaper can be neutral, without any patterns or a bit more attention-grabbing (but it should never be intrusive). It can depict, for example, bright (white or gray), aged planks that resembles real wood. Such decoration will make your wall look like it’s made of natural wood. Another very popular thing is a shabby chic wallpaper with a flower motif- especially with pale-pink roses. It will look absolutely fabulous at the background of retro-style furniture, adding a feminine touch and a natural lightness to your interior.
