“We always try to include an organic shape… Large or small, light or dark, broken or straight, twigs are the perfect accessories. Other items that can be added include uniquely shaped shells, coral, small potted plants, herbs, spices, beans, sea salts, and cotton branches.” —Kim Taylor, K Taylor Design Group
“The one accessory that I simply insist on is fresh flowers, plants, and blooming plants. People should not be the only living thing, nor should they be the oldest thing in one’s home.”
—Jimmy Jamieson, Jamieson Interior Design
“Artwork introduces color and fun into a room. It makes things interesting.” Add character to a room with a vintage French advertisement or a map, which can often be found on Fab (fab.com). —April Jensen, ADJ Interiors
“We do make sure to include an item that is of special importance to the client. It could be a family photograph or an item picked up from their travels… Adding mementos helps to tell their story.” —Retta Leritz, Hip & Gable Interiors
"Try decorating with antique trophies. If one doesn’t make a statement on its own, cluster a few together and fill them with colorful blooms."—Joy Tribout, Joy Tribout Interior Design
