Tips
Posted 11/01/2018
If you love the shabby chic look, then you’re certainly not on your own. It’s a very popular look due to its pretty aesthetic and homely feel. It fits in particularly well with rustic, country homes, as well as vintage looks, but looks perfectly charming in more contemporary settings too. Here are some accessories that will help give your home that shabby chic edge:
1. Wicker
Few things say shabby chic like wicker accessories, especially wicker hearts hanging from twine or ribbon. Painted wicker works just as well!
2. Chalk paint
When it comes to shabby chic, it’s all about that matte finish. If you’re thinking about updating a piece of furniture, choose chalk paint, every time.
3. Upcycling
Using old objects, or those you no longer need for their original use, for new purpose is not only satisfying, but fits in wonderfully with the shabby chic look.
4. Dried flowers
Dried flowers are the epitome of rustic shabby chic, and they can smell just as divine as fresh florals. Plus, if looked after properly, they can last years!
5. Ceramics
Ceramics, especially in the form of jugs, have an organic, country feel to them, which fits in beautifully with the shabby chic look that we all love.
