Get the Look, photograph 2

Today I'm working with the second photograph in my Summer Blues post. Its a wonderful children's room. The owner found some great unique pieces that add a personal touch to the space.

86 Home

Now for an array of fabrics-spreads,pillows, and such with a wonderful nautical feel! Play with the patterns; a mix adds texture and depth that matched sets cannot...
