Classic & Timeless White Rooms

My good friend Lisa asked me to give her some ideas on an "all white theme" room.  I did some research and found so many inspiring ideas that I decided to blog about it.

A beautiful classic white room is so chic & sophisticated!  Best way to pull it off is to incorporate different textures and have great lighting.  The room will glow with natural lighting.  Starting with your basic furniture, a white sofa, white tables, and etc.  Then comes the accessories.  I would look for textures in pillows, rugs, mirrors, lamps, and chandeliers. 
Also, go for varying shades of white - that means ivory, nearly cream and very pale greys.  These will all add depth and interest to the scheme.  Don't forget about the walls.  You don't have to stick with the traditional white walls.  Add white panels, crown moldings, and my favorite- wall paper!  There are endless types of wall paper that will make your room pop.  Just think "texture, texture!"





This room is gorgeous because it has all the right elements!
