First of all, I'm probably not going to be posting as often for a little while. School is getting very busy and I am running out of time for everything I need to do!
But, today I'm going to post some links about decorating. I love to decorate, even though I think I'm only just starting to develop an eye for what goes together well.
I am going to be doing some redecorating next month, so I'm looking for inspiration.
myusalife.wordpress.com did a post about Indian decor and in the comments Gori Girl suggested these:

And I found this one An Indian Summer
I also found some neat looking books on Amazon (inspired by seeing a coffee table book on Indian Decor at my study group)
India Decorations
Indian Interiors
Home Decorating Indian Style
For further inspiration, here is a Google image search on Indian Decor
So far I do have wall art that is Indian, one poster from Dolls of India (They have a lot of beautiful items and they are very friendly. Even though it isn't one of their items, they tracked down a copy of Lord of the Rings in Hindi for me) and several beautiful prints from a Krishna Calendar that my Hindi Teacher gave me. I also have a 3D Krishna framed that was given to me as a "Secret Santa" gift a couple of years ago. I have several Ganesha statues throughout my apartment, also.
I would like to add a lot of fabric. Many pillows of various sizes, layers of curtains in vibrant colors, etc.

Thank you, Meghana!
ReplyDeleteWell I once saw a portrait of Krishna as a custodian for Arjun it. It was a very over whelming with the chariot and the horses. It was hanged at a very strategic spot in my friends house.Reminded me every time of the Geeta when I entered his house.(Very similar to this one here:http://www.totalbhakti.in/wallpaper/image/Mahabharata-2236.jpg) Another thing you can try is cleverly placing natraj or ganesha.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to actually start decorating! I am relying on a lot of gift cards to Pier 1 and Home Goods for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteYes, Jubeee's post inspired me to do MORE decorating! I hit Pier 1 and World Market this past weekend. And a few little decor shops that I found driving around the uptown/hip part of my city. I think I went overboard...I actually need to return some things because I have nowhere to put all of it!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to post pictures when I finish decorating!
ReplyDeleteI love the ideas "An Indian Summer"! So stylist and lovely!
