Vibrant Spaces

Things like metal beams and rustic wood furniture create a rustic factory feel. The beauty of industrial design is the flexibility it is capable of. Elements could be incorporated and mixed in with other styles that would make the space cozier.

According to the Society of American Florists, <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2019/02/13/business/roses-flowers-valentines-day/index.html" target="_blank">more than 250 million roses</a> were produced to mark the occasion in 2019. And although they add color to your interiors and look beautiful in a vase, we hope this isn’t the only occasion flowers find a way into your home.

And they represent an eco-friendly alternative to buying trendier items that might soon go out of style and into the landfill. Floral arrangements are always in vogue, and there are so many varieties and ways to style them that you certainly won’t get bored. Take the first steps with this quick guide to decorating with flowers.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-h2-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">What Kind of Flowers Should You Use

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">This age-old question depends on many factors: Where you live, the season, your personal taste, and how much time you want to dedicate to them. Some of the most popular cut flowers include daisies, peonies, hydrangeas, sunflowers, and tulips. However, be mindful, for example, that peonies have a short blooming period, and they start dying down during the fall. On the other hand, daisies last longer. So do your research before deciding.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">Another factor to consider is the fillers you want to use. Most bouquets already come with some greenery to accompany the protagonist flower, but it’s fun to take a chance and make your own creation. You’ll need to buy the blooms of your choice and then see how they pair up with foliage such as baby’s breath, eucalyptus, myrtle, ivy, or lemon leaf. Let your creativity run free!

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-h2-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">Some Ideas to Display Them

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">One of the best things about flowers is that they work well in any room, and there are many different ways to display them. The most common is to place the bouquet in a vase or a pitcher, but you can also use just the blooms and put them in a container filled with water to create a floating arrangement. A third way would be to cut the stems short and take smaller vessels, like mason jars or glassware, and elaborate little floral creations to put around the house.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: center !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">📸:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/erikacarlock/" target="_blank">@</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/erikacarlock/" target="_blank">erikacarlock</a>

Peace lilies, bromeliads, anthuriums, or orchids are fantastic options because they are more prominent, last much longer, and add a touch of greenery that feels refreshing and natural. They also offer the possibility of caring for something living, which brings joy to many people.

In that case, there are other options to start getting acquainted with the dynamics of caring for a plant.

A Guide to Decorating with Flowers

When designing a kitchen, whether for a new construction home or a remodel, it is common to spend most of our time focusing on the big things, like cabinetry color, countertops, and flooring. However, it is really the small details that should be the center of our focus. Follow along to see how Noell designs her kitchen to transform it into a beautiful and functional space, from the big picture to small details.

Panel moulding is so subtle yet makes a huge impact in your space. One of my favorite things about panel moulding is that, once again, it really is up to you in the design of it all. What shapes are you going to do? Where are you going to put it? What type of moulding will you choose for it?

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">See what I mean? Endless opportunities. In our primary bedroom, I went with a very simple and thin panel moulding. I was looking for something subtle, soft, and more traditional and I think I nailed it! What do you think?

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">This assumes your panel moulding is in a box style. The same instructions can apply for squares, rectangles, etc.

1. Tape out your space and see the pattern or look you’re trying to achieve. From here you can measure how much panel moulding you need, what sizes you need, etc. Once you have all of these details you can get to creating.

2. Make your cuts using a mitre saw. Cuts are 45 degrees each. Each piece should be cut resembling a trapezoid (long edges on the same size and short edges on the same side – NOT like a parallelogram).

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">TIP: I use the measuring tape for the first cuts of a certain size, then move on to using the already cut pieces as my guides so every piece that is supposed to be the same size is exactly the same size.

3. Time to install the panel moulding. I liked to start in the middle and work my way out to make sure everything is even. First, find the middle of the wall and the middle of the piece. Then, nail that middle piece in the middle using your nail gun! Take your level, level the piece, and nail in the rest of that middle piece. Next, get your second piece ready, and grab your speed square. Line it up so that the corners match up perfectly. Use your speed square to make that perfect 90 degree corner. Repeat for the third piece. For the last piece, line up the corners on either side and secure them using the nail gun again.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">TIPS:

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">4. Moving onto your next squares or rectangles, repeat step 3. But make sure the spaces between your boxes are even.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">5. Fill your nail holes using drywall compound. Once it’s dry, sand away. Clean the dust of each board using a tack cloth. Then caulk.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">6. Paint away.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">7.

How to Install Wall Panel Moulding

We all know those blissful moments in life. Those little indulgences make your heart skip a little with excitement. For us, it’s a new series on Netflix, bottomless brunch, the arrival of an ASOS delivery, and its afternoon tea.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">Let’s talk about afternoon tea for a minute.

Styling a Summer Afternoon Tea

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">Over a year ago, I installed generic roman shades in Georgia’s nursery, not even thinking of the safety hazard they would create. I quickly realized how big of a mistake I had made! The chords were hanging down low and were within reach of her crib. There was no way that I could leave them like that.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">That’s when I connected with Melanie from <a href="https://www.behindtheglass.co/" target="_blank">Behind the Glass</a> to discuss kids-safe options. She suggested an easy fix, which I appreciated: adding clips to the wall to wrap the cord around so it’s not dangling down. I thought this solution would be safe, but it would be such a pain to open and close the blinds multiple times each day.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">She then introduced me to <a href="https://www.somfysystems.com/en-us/?utm_medium=sponsored_post&amp;utm_source=blog&amp;utm_campaign=US_think_multi_acq_shades_influencer_kristine-lee&amp;utm_content=homepage" target="_blank">Somfy</a>, a worldwide leader in motorized window coverings.

There are no messy chords, and the motor hides behind the blind, so you don’t even notice it. And, the best part of all is that I was able to customize the look!

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">As soon as I heard about this solution, I knew it was what we needed in our home for efficiency and peace of mind. We have four windows in Georgia’s nursery, including a dormer window in the ceiling that we can’t reach, so installing a motorized system for all windows so we could open and close them all simultaneously with the click of a button sounded brilliant! I love incorporating the “closing of the blinds” into Georgia’s nap time routine. It’s so nice that I can hold her while easily closing the blinds at the same time.

I wanted a clean, light look, so I decided to use the same white linen fabric in all of the bedrooms to seamlessly blend in with the existing drapes for a light and airy feel. In Taylor’s room, we added a fun pink stripe detail to the shade. The color works perfectly with the pink accents in her room and is subtle to tie her room decor together.

Taylor does the same thing in her bedroom which is really cute to watch. It’s such a nice way to start our day! I love it when technology makes our life easier.

As a certified <a href="https://www.behindtheglass.co/motorization" target="_blank">Somfy Expert,</a> they were able to recommend the best products for our needs. The skylight in Georgia’s room is an arched window and a very tricky shape to cover. They came up with a custom solution for us that completely blocks out the light while maintaining the beautiful aesthetic of our dormer window when the blind is closed.

Georgia’s Nursery Over a year ago, I installed generic roman shades in Georgia’s nursery, not even thinking of the safety hazard they would create. I quickly realized how big of a mistake I had made! The chords were hanging down low and were within reach of her crib. There was no way that I could leave them like that. That’s when I connected with Melanie from Behind the Glass to discuss kids-safe options. She suggested an easy fix, which I appreciated.

Efficient and Beautiful Motorized Window Shades

It is all about creating a relaxing environment while keeping the focus on wood, stone, and other organic elements. Instead of worrying about finding the perfect shade or matching colors, it's time to let natural elements and character pieces stand out.
