Green + Tangerine Living Room Re-Creation

When we came across our inspiration photo (below), we just loved how the bright accent colors popped against the dark gray neutral base.

The colors reminded of us of some pretty furniture and accessories we have in the store right now, like this forest green ottoman and these tangerine printed pillows...

That was enough to convince us that this professionally designer room was Divine-Consign-Re-Creatable! 

After the green and orange sparked our interest, we searched our showroom for some comfy, practical seating in neutral colors... (if you're feeling brave, go with the striped chair for added impact!)

Since our ottoman is pretty big compared to the ones in the original photo, it would be a squeeze to fit a full-sized coffee table in as well. We'd opt for a simple, small but durable side table that could serve the same purpose as the coffee table, without taking up so much room.

With a dark base, you'll need to add plenty of lighting. We have some fun options in store right now!

And finally....an area rug! We're loving the geometric pattern on the original one, so here are some options from the Surya catalog that would work well! Click the photo for more information, then give us a call to order (We can order any rug from Surya - brand new - for a discounted  price).

It’s spring! How about adding some color to your home décor?

The air is warming up, the sun is staying out later, why not brighten up your home with a little bit of color?

Tangerine is making an appearance this spring, and over at Divine Consign we are thrilled—what a fun, vibrant color! Not ready to paint your whole living room bright orange? Here are a few fun ways to add pizzazz to your home, sans a long-term commitment.

Fabric 

     Sprucing up any room in your house can be as simple as finding that perfect area rug, accent pillow, or set of drapes. This is a great low-cost way to celebrate this seasonal color without going overboard! (Oh, and did we mention Divine Consign does custom upholstery and drapery??  How convenient!)

    Paint an accent wall  

   Don’t let this bold color scare you away! Orange can actually be a very calming color, making a room seem cozy and comfortable. And you can choose from an array of tones, ranging from softer shades like “Pumpkin” and “Salmon” to brighter tangerines and even gold.  

Go trendy and practical! 

Can’t bring yourself to spend on fluffy pillows or a modern accent chair, just because it’s “in season”? Go the practical route and buy pieces that serve a function as well as add character! (And come on, how CUTE is that tangerine clock?!)
