Gettin' Figgy with It


If you've ever read a decor magazine, you know that the fiddle leaf fig tree is a design staple for almost all interior designers. Well, you may not have actually known the plant by name, but you know what I'm talking about... that beautiful tree that adds a sculptural feel and is a work of art in itself. If you're looking to add height and an organic touch to your space, go with the fiddle leaf fig. It's an easy to care for (and fast growing) houseplant that your local nursery is sure to have in stock. I.O. METRO has some great planters to add additional style, too!

Double Up

Do you have a space that is so large it is hard to find an affordable rug that is big enough? Or maybe you're wanting to make a large space feel more intimate by using rugs to define zones? What about that hallway, is it looking too long and empty? If you're facing any of these dilemmas, it is totally fine to incorporate more than one area rug in a room. Even better, they don't always have to perfectly match. 

DESIGN TIP: To create a cohesive look use two matching rugs, or if you use different rugs, be sure that the patterns and palettes of the rugs play well together.

They are living pieces of art...







Here are two ways you can build these beauties at home...
