Adding
shabby chic pictures to a space can add some contrast to a modern theme or add a splash of color to a room filled with white wash furniture and DIY projects. As a style, shabby chic is best described as
eclectic and funky with creamy whites and pastels that include lots of different contrasting textures.
When shopping for
shabby chic art, one of the most important things to keep in mind is your current room decor.
In order to properly integrate a piece of art without losing that comfy and casual shabby chic feel, you should begin by thinking about the general colors of your room. If all of your furniture is vintage and pastel colored, you may want to choose a light colored painting set on a gallery wrapped canvas. If the majority of your room includes
white washed dressers and
neutral colors, you may want to add a most eccentric, colorful piece to add some contrast.
When making your decision, you also want to consider the size of the finished shabby chic painting you're looking to purchase. Remember, if you're going to add a distressed frame as a finishing option, you want to take that into account. To complete your look, you also want to consider the subject of your
shabby chic prints. Usually including flowers, birds and/or some kind of typography, the perfect
casual chic picture for you will not only accentuate your space but also compliment your personal eclectic, rustic style.
