Designer Tip – Teal Accents

November 18, 2011

I am not sure where my love for teal came from, but lately, all I can think about is painting a wall, or adding some sort of teal accent in my house. I am having trouble deciphering what colours to paint my house. I have no starting point. I am hoping that most of the furnishings in my apartment now, will eventually become new. For the most part, my apartment is full of hand-me-downs and my goal over the next year is to start fresh and update! I digress. Teal. It is a wonderful thing. It is a bold colour that lends itself to a traditional or modern palette.
Teal arm chairs in a rustic setting add a modern vibe.

Interior design works best with continuity. Repeating colours and textures
 on the walls and sofa creates a subtle luxurious look.

Usually we see sofas with neutrals, but if you are feeling
daring, teal could be the answer!

Take some teal and splash up your space! It will go with everything! I promise!
Happy reno reading!

    I also LOVE the teal sofa!
    I've been trying to incorporate some teal accents into my place too! (My tea-towel from Crate & Barrel, and the bowl I got from Aberfoyle seem to be all I've found so far, that I really like! Please keep your eye out, and let me know if you see something you think I'll like! – Specifically, I would REALLY like to find a small-ish ceramic vase!)
