The Next Big Thing


Flamingos have have always been a part of the preppy, Lilly, Palm Beach Chic look, but now they are popping up everywhere. I predict flamingos will be the next "big thing." I love flamingo art and love the way it mixes with Chinoiserie. I am including a great piece I found on Etsy in my gallery wall for my office makeover. Here is inspiration on how to get the look and my favorites with sources and links and it is all very budget friendly.

My Gallery Walls


These are the pieces I have so far for my planned gallery wall in my home office -
A vintage Vera scarf from eBay - arrived.
A nude sketch from Furbish - arrived.
An abstract by artist Kerry Steele
A 24K gold and pink flamingo from Etsy - arrived.

I have decided to play around with a DIY project on the framing. Here is the gallery wall below that I did for my kitchen One Room Challenge. I used a mix of unframed canvases, ready made frames, and custom frames and love the result. I smile every time I look at it and yes, I love pink!
