animal in the house

Bringing a little animal skin in to your home keeps things fun and fashionable.  Now, there are many animal prints actually printed on faux suede or cotton canvas to simulate the real without endangering any species.  One does not need to invest in a couch or an entire room, merely an accent piece such as a chair or even a pillow or ottoman.  The above illustration done for

blink decor shows a glamourous sunroom awash in white, accents of turquoise and zebra.

Currently, lizard and snake seem to be making a come-back in accessories.  Sounds tempting, right!  All you would need to add is a bowl full of apples, take a bite out of that, or not.  After all, your home should be your very own garden of eden.
