Fly Space

If birds of a feather flock together, maybe they should be soaring around your living space. To add a touch of fly-ness to your décor, take note of five ways to show off your winged beauties.

Owls in a Tree Urban Outfitter1. Dresser Delights

Set off a little fly wonder to your nightstand or dresser with an owl candle, ceramic bird decoration, butterfly lamp or jewelry stand. Something small can look big and really stand out on its own, given the right location. And, if it’s housing other precious things, even better! Try Urban Outfitter’s Owls in a Tree Jewelry Stand ($6.99). It holds earrings, rings, bracelets and is an ultra cool way to show off your prized gems when you’re not wearing them.

Jill Serra Bird Girl Print2. Wall Art

Whether it is wall hooks, decals, wallpaper or prints, decorating your wall has become a breeze, just make sure you know the exact location of where you’ll put your wall art before your commit. Empty walls are boring so try Jill Serra’s Birdgirl Print ($50). The gorgeous work of art features a dark-eyed, wild mane of a girl swirling around hearts and birds. The striking 22″ X 30″ screen print can add a unique, chic touch to your walls. Use a strong, colorful frame to bring out the image.

Bluebird Pillow from Target for story3. Bed Beauties

Think of decorative pillows like jewelry. They’re the little extras that can make such a big difference to any look. Plus, pillows are an ultra easy way to transform any bed into a work of art. Don’t be afraid to mix it up a bit by using contrasting colors, shapes, fabrics and prints when it comes to your pillow selections. In keeping with our fly theme, try the eye-catching Dwell Studio for Target Blue Birds Decorative Pillow ($24.99).

Velocity Art & Design Simrin Coaster4. Living Room Lux

Bring your fly décor out of your bedroom and into your living room with small additions of wonder for all to enjoy. Celebrate the season with winged-themed pictures frames, window curtains or even coasters. Take Simrin’s Botanical Butterfly Coasters ($44, set of four). The gorgeous coasters are made from vinyl and are water and stain resistant. There’s just something about butterflies and we absolutely love these little beauties.

Fred Flare Tweet Plates5. Tabletop Treats

Serveware doesn’t have to be boring. Make it fun, colorful and memorable by adding a new design into your existing one. Mixing and matching works well in the kitchen. Try Thomas Paul’s Tweet Dinner Plate Set ($40, set of four). And, although they are created for edible goodies, you can also use them to store other treasures, too. Don’t hide these cute plates away in the cupboard. Set one on your nightstand or bathroom to show off your jewelry or perfume collection.
