Bringing the outdoors in is a fantastic way to enhance the look of your home. The home decorators at Charlotte’s Interior Decorating in Gulf Shores, AL, love incorporating natural elements in room design schemes, and they are always happy to share their favorite nature-inspired tips and advice.

Check out a few of the many ways to use natural materials in your home décor, courtesy of Charlotte Perkins and her outstanding team:

  • Dry Grasses: Ornamental grasses look stunning on any property, and dry grass looks equally as beautiful indoors. Order dry grasses through various online stores or learn to dry your own. Either way, the look of tall ornamental grasses in elegant vases and other containers is spectacular.
  • Seashells: Have a seashell collection accumulating dust in your basement or attic? Use them in your home décor projects. Broken and whole shells look wonderful as mirror and picture frame borders, while oversized vases filled with sea treasures are also lovely.
  • Leaves & Twigs: Dry leaves and twigs add something special to any centerpiece, particularly Thanksgiving centerpieces. Use the leaves to create a border, and place twigs among seasonal flora. You may also want to add glitter or holiday ribbon to the twigs for that extra touch.
  • River Rocks: Smooth and flat river rocks make great vase fillers. They also do well at the bottom of your bathroom sink, as they help invoke a delightful “spa” experience.

These are merely some of the many ways to add natural elements to modern décor projects. Discuss your ideas with the talented Ms. Perkins and enjoy creating something that’s unique and suited to your taste. Charlotte Perkins has brought her brand of magic to clients’ homes since 1980, and she continues to provide creative, professional room design services throughout Baldwin County.
