This spring, I'm going tropical!
Think swaying palm trees, shady verandas with Old World charm......
And green.......
With lots of textures and neutrals......
Burlap, jute, and pretty prints on pillows.....
And a pineapple pillow for the universal symbol of "welcome."
My neutral pillows (from At Home) are my year-'round pillows, and I switch pillow covers depending on the season. This pretty spring green geometric print pillow cover is from Birch Lane.
And nothing says the tropics better than swaying palm trees. Love these palm tree pillow covers with Old World text from Birch Lane.
I added a tobacco basket to hold some magazines and greenery on the coffee table. I love this lantern which I usually keep on top of the bookcase -- I brought it down to be the center of attraction.
And while we're on the subject of tropicals, I'm interested in adding more greenery to the beach house. This chart from pinterest is perfect for selecting some pretty greens to add to baskets and bottles.
Now, I'm off to fix a tall glass of iced tea and escape into a good book! Preferably set in the tropics!
