Style: Traditional, due not only to the furniture within the room but also the well-chosen accents Ð a brass chandelier, swag window treatment, even silver serving pieces on the sideboard.
Wall treatments: A bold salmon color washes the walls, providing a backdrop that contrasts beautifully with dark and light furnishings alike.
Window treatments: This window treatment couldnÕt be simpler; itÕs no more than a length of unhemmed fabric thatÕs draped and knotted over swag hooks.
Floors: Softening the hardwood floor, an area rug echoes the predominantly pastel hues.
Furniture: Traditional furniture need not break your budget. This corner cabinet, for instance, is an old piece thatÕs been revived with an imaginative paint treatment. Likewise, the sideboard was secured for $75 at a consignment shop.
Color and pattern: From the swag window treatment right down to the floral area rug, pastel colors mix it up in a variety of patterns. The key to success? They vary in size and scale, too.
