The Beauty and Warmth of Tuscany Decor
Home Decorating is a very personal decision, different with every individual. Your home decor reflects your personal style
and individual quirks. If you’re having problems making a decision about your home decorating theme, consider a tuscany theme
for your home.
Tuscany style combines subtle elegance and simplicity while using a palette of earthy warm tones. Tuscany decorating comes from
the Tuscany Valley in Italy and is meant to bring the outdoors in. This great home decorating idea uses distinct materials to
help accomplish this goal. Tuscany style is unique as well as beautiful and cosy.
Textures are a big part of the Tuscany theme. It involves the use of stone and primative tile for the flooring but wood or
laminate floors can also be added to the mix. Textured plaster for the walls in a warm color is also another important
ingredient in the big picture and here is where you can really be creative and add your personal stamp on a room. If you like
beams, you can add them to a tuscany styled room. They conjure up a warm, cozy and rustic feel.
Mosaicing a floor is another way to add charm to a Tuscany theme. Consider tiling with slate or mexican tile in your entry
way. It will really set the tone for your entrance into Tuscany decorating. Also mosaicing a Table Top in rustic tile, such
as again slate, terra cotta or travertine will add to the Tuscany decor. Partner it with a rod iron table bottom and you’ve
got a real Tuscany home.
Any home decorating theme that focuses on nature uses wood and the Tuscany style makes great use of wood. One example is
using large wooden beams. You can use the real thing or they now make “faux” wooden beams in different material including
styrofoam. Do a google search for faux wooden beams and you’ll be able to come up with some ideas. Tuscany home decor also
utilizes woden furniture. It needs to look aged and you can accomplish this different colored stains. Although buying antique
furniture would really do the trick.
Tuscany decorating is based on a cultural heritage. Adding accessories can bring out the Tuscany Italian heritage.
Accessories that are homemade are common for this home decorating idea. Ceramic vases are a big thing in tuscany decorating,
especially those made of terra cotta. Terra cotta items is a running theme in Tuscany home decorating. Silver frames, silver
candlesticks and copper pots, or anything else copper are all common in the tuscany design. When I think of Tuscany, I think
of wine and grapes and cheese. Beautiful wine glasses, and, if you can find them, antique wine glasses would be a beautiful
addition to your tuscany decorating. Large glass jars filled with olives, vases filled with colorful flowers and, again,
anything terra cotta add to the ambiance of Tuscasy decorating.
Tuscany fabric is in a class all by itself. When using Tuscany fabric in this home decorating theme, look for fabrics made of
fibers from the banana tree, savannah and tobacco cloth, burlap and abaca fiber. These fabrics create a natural space and
enviromentt and are quite versatile for just about anything in your decorating project. Curtains, drapes, blinds, dividers,
screens, placemats, floormats, these can all be created from the various Tuscany fabrics because of their weight, density and
flexibility.
Decorating your home in the Tuscany style makes good use of colors in the red and yellow family, bright and muted. See if you
can find these colors in tassels and tie-backs to accent your drapes. You can also add ribbons in these colors and add them
to candlesticks, jugs, baskets and anything else you can think of. Any item or accessory which resembles the sea, earth or
forest make great additions to tuscany style home decorating. Color, texture, fabric and accessories will create a warm and
inviting feeling in any space in your home. Tuscany style is one of simplicity and nature and is a great home decorating
idea.
