Adding The Finishing Touches With Minted
Home, LifestyleYou guys know that I am obsessed with Minted! Their art work is amazing and I created my office gallery wall with them back in the US which you can see HERE, obviously it has now changed due to my move so I will be sure to share that on social media within the next few days (Instagram is nicola_darita btw). Anyway back to the subject in hand I have teamed up with the wonderful Minted again to show you how I have added the finishing touches to my new bedroom, and specifically my bed with the plethora of throw pillows they offer. So first let me tell you all about my new room, I have to start by mentioning the horrid bright red carpet; I wouldn't choose it but it's a rental so I'm stuck with it at least for now. Luckily though I finally have white walls which I am very happy about indeed. I am also in the loft technically so there are a lot of eaves and sloping walls, because of this I don't really have room to hang pictures so I thought what better way to decorate than to add some comfy, cosy cushions. On the Minted website they offer tons of deigns and patterns all by incredible artists cross the world (in fact if you are artsy then Minted is the perfect place to showcase/sell your wok). They have so many designs I actually found it quite tricky to pick, but I knew I wanted something so match my current grey comforter; I also may have popped this stunning Poppy Cushion for my vanity chair which you may of seen in my makeup collection video HERE. I started with the really simple Deco Square Pillow in the 24x24 size to be the base of my cushions. I took a gamble with the colour on this one and went for Taupe in the hope it would be grey enough. It is a little warmer in tone than I would've liked but I think it works ok. Lastly I wanted another geometric pattern to go in front of those so I picked two of the Iron Gate Square Pillows in Silver. They have a crisp white fabric with a really cool iron gate pattern. I knew that both designs would fit in perfectly with my other throw pillows; (Silver one from Calvin Klein, White Ruffle from DKNY, 'N' cushion from Homebase). I was so impressed by the fabric of the covers and by the density and 'fluffiness' on the internal cushion its self. I am so in love with how it looks and there is no place I would rather spend my Sunday blogging. So now I am obsessed with Minted Home and all these designs and more also come in the form of curtains, lamp shades, table cloths and basically anything you could think of, so I know where I will be going when I get my own home. Love...
