With the start of another year well under way, we are feeling as inspired as ever to get creative in our homes. To give you a helping hand we have put together 4 inspiring ways to turn your house into a Wrendale home, after all, who doesn't love a touch of Wrendale?
It can be easy to feel overwhelmed when first embarking on your re-decorating journey - that's why we love a good mood board! They provide the perfect space to play around with the components of your room so that you can get a feel for what the end result could look like and check that your ideas work. Our scrapbooks are a great place for mood boards to live with plenty of space for fabric samples, paint charts and ‘inspo’ pictures.
Are you after a more luxurious look for your dining room? Our bold deer wallpaper has a rich mulberry background and pairs perfectly with The Little Green Paint Co. ‘Rolling Fog’. Pairing rich colours with more natural tones create a beautiful contrast.
Furnishing the room with a rustic dining table and upholstered chairs will continue to add a sense of warmth to the room. You could make a fabulous centre piece for your dining table by pairing a beautifully illustrated flower jug with flowers that help to pick out the colours in the room.
Adding oversized lanterns to your dining room not only makes a charming statement, they also allow you to softly light the room which will add to the luxurious feel.
2. gorgeous GUEST ROOM
To create a bright and inviting space for your guests we recommend our bee wallpaper with some tasteful panelling and a fresh, complementing wall colour. We have a range of bee themed products here at Wrendale which would be the perfect match to this wallpaper.
To create that ‘hotel feel’ try to stick to white bedding. Don’t be afraid to introduce different textures or patterns into the room, they can work really well alongside Hannah's watercolour illustrations as well as being practical and cosy. Finish with a set of fluffy towels and why not go that extra mile and add one of our beautiful soap bars - your guests will never want to leave!
One of the most used rooms in the house deserves to look as good as any other and what better way to make doing the washing feel less monotonous than with a dash of Wrendale?
The neutral tones of our dog wallpaper mean you can be dark and daring with your wall colour choice. We love this intense blue black shade from 'The Little Greene Paint Co' called 'Basalt'. This colour also creates a wonderful backdrop for our matching dog fabric which would make the perfect statement as a Roman blind.
An oak shelf and hanging rack is not only great for storing all your coats, bags and umbrellas but is also the perfect place to hang one of our wooden plaques for a daily reminder of your favourite quote.
Have you thought about adding a dash of greenery to your space? The list of benefits of having plants in your home not only goes on and on but they also improve the look of your space - what's not to love? If you have any pets always ensure that your choice of plants are pet friendly, some of the most popular plants are often not good for your four-legged friends.
The majority of our time is spent in our living rooms, the heart of the home. What could be a more perfect combination than a cosy snug featuring some of your favourite Wrendale finds…
Create an inviting reading nook in a quiet corner to enjoy a book or a cup of tea in your favourite mug. Our gift books make a lovely addition to any library, bookshelf or coffee table (and are a wonderful read if you want to take time away from your phone to do other things).
Why not make a statement with your favourite fabric? Create fabulous curtains to match our lampshades. Ensure that comfort is at the forefront of your decisions and consider rugs and blankets finished with a cluster of different sized cushions - our Wrendale cushions have a co-ordinating design on each side, perfect for helping your room to feel refreshed whenever you fancy a change!
From mood board to the finished cosy snug, take a look at how Hannah transformed her boot room into the perfect place to sit back, relax and paint. It's so good we wish we had a 'before' picture!
