Go Natural With Your Home This Summer

Whenever I am working on a design I try to bring in a few different types of finishes with metal, wood, and greenery. They are more neutral and give a natural break to the space.

I see a big trend this summer with wood from petrified wood to rattan. Wood is a great kid-friendly item to add on, giving you a little peace of mind when putting it out on your easy to reach furniture! Here are a few of my favorite finds that can help you go Natural this summer in your home.
