Thrifty decor: Bring on the green - hi..Home Design,The house is a sanctuary for all that occupies. Every spot within the house is required to service each family member. A father needs a comfortable workplace, a mother also needs an efficient kitchen and a pleasant children's room.With these considerations we give an idea of Thrifty decor: Bring on the greenThe proper selection of the house is the key to determining how well the inhabitants reside in their palaces. No matter how vast it is important to be at home
Then think ferns. Wild ones, the ones you see growing in the woods or other damp places. They are a constant in my summer decor mostly because I don't have ready access to cultivated options and also because I love to create interest and a homey, nature inspired look without spending money.
Living on the edge of the ocean, in a meadow with thick woods behind me is the perfect spot for foraging for bargain accents. I often combine sea related objects, some found and others hand crafted.
Then an old oil lamp replaced the candle. So three objects different heights, different textures and different shapes is a simple formula for display. Another trick is to mimic the shape of the table in one or more of the objects. The circle is repeated a number of times in this vignette.
As the ferns started to wilt, I removed them and cut some grasses and alder leaves to flesh out the display and moved it to another spot. Leading the viewer's eye is another great trick to use for simple displays. Your eye pops from the rope ball, to the bouy and then through to the ferns and lamp. Again I have different textures, heights and shapes. The added texture of the lamp base and the table creates a very inviting vignette.
If you don't have a meadow or woods near you buying several ferns at the florist has the same effect.
Do you have a favourite go to wild plant to use in your arrangements?

Another trick I use is to continually move around objects I have to create new looks. My summer place is small and there isn't a lot of storage for "accessories". The candle replaced the sculptured vessel in the photo above.
