I love using texture to add dimension and interest to the rooms in my home. I have especially used this idea more and more as I have created a more neutral style in my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. My favorite textures to use are silver, jute, leather, soft fabrics, wool, wood, crisp painted white items, knitted items, brass, woven items, glass, velvet, and distressed painted wood, I love the combination of old mix with new. If I’m creating a vignette, I will usually pair older, worn items with newer items. Below are just a few ideas on how I have used texture in my home.
