From Habitat magazine - issue 20
Saturated colour, sumptuous bedding... transport yourself.
Create a luxury bedroom with jewel-like colours and hints of the Orient. Starting with a sumptuous amethyst base of Resene Pukeko walls, we’ve added a matchstick bedhead in hot pink Resene Smitten, a side table in Resene Seeker and converted a cane birdcage into a lamp and painted it in Resene Flashback. Overblown and colourful flowers are put into a vase painted in Resene Centre Stage and the finishing touch is a bed piled with vibrant velvet throws, colourful cushions and decadent linen.
Cane furniture is inexpensive, easy to paint and fits with many themes. Aside from this Oriental look, cane suits a beachy setting, retro hippy chic rooms and teenage bedrooms. So hop onto TradeMe or down to your local second-hand store, buy some cane and get painting.
