Using plates in the design of a room makes for fabulous "artwork." You'll typically see plates used in Country French, English Country and Traditional styles of design. Personally, I'm a big fan. Here are some examples...

This is by far my favorite of this series of images, below. I love the blue and white against the stone wall. Rustic meets refined. It's so textural and beautiful!

Do you have plates hanging anywhere in your house? If so, what's your personal style, I'd love to know!
Talk to you soon,

Carol,
ReplyDeleteI love that rug in the kitchen too but mostly white? I could never get a client to install that kind of rug in a kitchen. . . maybe it's all for show and photos :)

Maria, I'm sure it is, too. When I look at beautiful design photos, I have to remind myself that real people live there and that photos don't tell the full story! It's so easy to get lost in pictures and forget. :)
