Design Obsession - Chevron Pattern
Chevron: Have you seen THIS craze? If you've stuck around here long enough....you probably already know how much i love it. I like to define the chevron pattern as..."a splash of happiness". Because it is! Just lines and colors...and make such a smile!
Some of you may have seen this pattern when Missoni came out with their collection at Target back in the fall. Here are some of their recent patterns. How great! 
Just a splash of this fun "zig zag" pattern will recreate a whole room for you!
Hello Pretty Things posted this to their blog and I fell in love with the idea!
A quick and easy addition to make your floor "pop"! This rug is sold at West Elm.
Another design from West Elm is this stylized chevron in a duvet. Chevron doesn't just have to be crisp... it can have some movement to it too!
Feeling brave?? (And very patient) Try out the chevron pattern on your WALLS!
Pillows are also an easy addition! There are thousands of places that sell chevron pillows now, but check out Lacey Placey on Etsy.
I posted about her earlier last week when I bought our bed pillows from her shop, they are absolutely gorgeous! (and inexpensive!)
She will custom make any size for you as well!
For all you new moms out there, she makes chevron burp clothes too!
Lots of bright and fun colors!
Another idea: You can zig zag above a mantel through art work. I could even paint this ;)
If your other furniture pieces are simple and patternless, a chair like this can brighten that room right up! Urban Outfitters has a fun chair:
Adding a zig zag rug to a room really changes the whole feel for the space. It gives it a bit of a refreshed step and a definite contemporary ambiance.
This burnt orange zig zag rug gives this dining room a great floor for a wonderful design.
Last but not least...don't forget to stay organized in style;) Plum Paper Designs sells these wonderful little trinkets! You may remember, I've gotten one for myself, and I feel quite organized ;)
Be Bold!
