Mix and Match. A Few Tips.



Mixing Prints.  Not always easy and not always Well Done. Here are a few tips that will help you master this skill.  Good Luck and send us some photos of your mix and match projects.

Stick to one or two main colors
Your prints don’t need to all be in the exact same shade, but they should have the same undertones.

Give patterns some space. Vary styles and scale. Mix a large floral with a small geometric print and a medium-sized stripe.

Mix up the types of patterns. Use a floral, a geometric print, and a classic stripe to give your look some variety.

If an interior or exterior space already has a lot going on in the way of color and pattern, keep furniture simple.

Add accent colors with accessories

Now, go practice.
