When midcentury modern design resurfaced en masse, a handful of years ago, the popularity of velvet furniture started to take hold. Limitless possibilities abound when designing with velvet if you are wise about placement and maintain restraint.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14385\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14385 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/2.jpg\" alt=\"Source: Trendir, Living Room Ideas, VKV Visuals, HGTV Home, Velvet Photos\" width=\"600\" height=\"490\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.trendir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Fall-season-wallpaper-for-bedroom.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Trendir<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/livingroomideas.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/10-Modern-and-Sophisticated-Living-Rooms-That-you-Will-Love11.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Living Room Ideas<\/a>, VKV Visuals, <a href=\"https:\/\/hgtvhome.sndimg.com\/content\/dam\/images\/hgtv\/fullset\/2013\/8\/14\/0\/RS_Vanessa-DeLeon-gray-eclectic-dining-room_h.jpg.rend.hgtvcom.966.725.jpeg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">HGTV Home<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Direct the focus of a living room with a deep tufted loveseat or taut pulled modern wingback chair.

Replace your coffee table with a velvet upholstered ottoman, add additional seating to a bedroom with a velvet bench at the foot of the bed, and jazz up the entryway with a few velvet stools that encourage your guests to take a seat, remove their shoes, and get comfortable. If you are looking for a grand, impressive show of velvet, add a floor-to-ceiling wall to banquet seating or create a focus wall in a dining room.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14385\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14385 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/5.jpg\" alt=\"Source: Homeify, Mirelit, Yellowtrace\" width=\"600\" height=\"490\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/images.homify.com\/image\/upload\/a_0,c_fit,f_auto,q_auto,w_1108\/v1437135772\/p\/photo\/image\/19278\/Denmark_Ave26.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Homeify<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.remontbp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/196.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Mirelit<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/assets.yellowtrace.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Hotel-Covell-LA-Yellowtrace-17.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Yellowtrace<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Small Touches<\/h4>\n<p>The final touch of velvet is by far the easiest in both concept and on the pocketbook. Keep it simple, clean, and minimal but still create impact by adding a few pillows to a sofa or loveseat, or stack velvet floor pillows to create a cozy seating area, dress the bed with a comforter or duvet, or drape a chair with a throw blanket. These modest applications of velvet can be all a room needs for a little something extra to keep things interesting and lush.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14385\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14385 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/6.jpg\" alt=\"Source: West Elm, SF Girl by Bay, Pinterest, HGTV Home\" width=\"600\" height=\"490\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: West Elm, <a href=\"https:\/\/sfgirlbybayadm.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/green99.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">SF Girl by Bay<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com\/564x\/0b\/c1\/c3\/0bc1c3f91d79c0d6e6a3fd0338dbb67c.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Pinterest<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/hgtvhome.sndimg.com\/content\/dam\/images\/hgtv\/fullset\/2016\/5\/12\/0\/FOD16_Sarah-Wittenbraker_Colorful-LR_4.jpg.rend.hgtvcom.966.644.jpeg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">HGTV Home<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Windows<\/h4>\n<p>The days of heavy drapes have been pushed aside to welcome open, light, and airy windows. We live in an age that is all about inviting the outside in and enjoying an unencumbered view. Heavy velvet drapes are notorious for weighing down a window and in the majority of cases are best left to historic homes and period themed rooms. To complement velvet in a room, dress your window in fabrics that are constructed from fabrics considered more casual. Drapes or roman Shades in cotton or linen, natural woven shades, and natural or painted wood blinds are all excellent choices. Simple window treatments set the stage when using this cushy fabric.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14385\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14385 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/7.jpg\" alt=\"Source: Suburban Bees, Ezycsy, Velvet&amp;Linen\" width=\"600\" height=\"490\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Suburban Bees, <a href=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.loversiq.com\/daut\/as\/f\/l\/living-room-decorating-ideas-for-small-house-e2-80-93-home-design-in-the-philippines_how-to-decorate-a-small-house_apartment_minimalist-apartment-design-district-apartments-small-studio-interior-desig.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Ezycsy<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/brookegiannetti.typepad.com\/.a\/6a00e554d7b827883301348870ed86970c-pi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Velvet&amp;Linen<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The opulence of Louis XIV is a velvet era to remember but not replicate.

A firm believer in the transformative power of nature, I bring the outside in and infuse every design with the vitality of plants. Moreover, I stand by the principle that, when it comes to design, less is more. There is beauty that lies in the elegance of minimalism and the art of negative space, where every piece tells a story and holds immense value.

Recognizing that each environment is as distinct as the individual inhabiting it, I approach my craft with a deep appreciation for the nuances that make a space truly special. A firm believer in the transformative power of nature, I bring the outside in and infuse every design with the vitality of plants. Moreover, I stand by the principle that, when it comes to design, less is more. There is beauty that lies in the elegance of minimalism and the art of negative space, where every piece tells a story and holds immense value. Oh, and as a side note, I was born and raised in Montana. Maybe that\u2019s why I naturally gravitate towards wide-open spaces and biophilic design.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Blindsgalore\/","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/blindsgalore\/","https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/blindsgalore\/","https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/blindsgalore"],"url":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/author\/nikki\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15584","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15584"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15584\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15607"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15584"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15584"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15584"},{"taxonomy":"thb-sponsors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/thb-sponsors?post=15584"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
