Shabby Chic Beautiful


Beautiful "Shabby Chic" inspiration, plus some style tips to help you create that charming, cozy, shabby feel.




Vintage Elements
To bring some shabby chic style into the heart of the home, mix one part sunny, one part sophisticated, with a few hints of yesteryear. Vintage fixtures, hardware and accessories married with white or pastel-painted cabinets are the essence of today's shabby chic style kitchen.






The White Stuff
Layers of varying shades of white are the hallmark of the shabby chic style. Not only can they add a distinct, intimate feel to living areas and bedrooms, they're also easy to clean with the help of regular household bleach. 




Cozy and Covered
Crave an extra-cozy look? Warm things up with natural warm woods, vintage leather, and slipcovered furniture. The idea is to use soft, charming furniture pieces that are less contemporary than the type of furniture you’d likely find in a modern home.




Crisp and Clean-Lined
To create a shabby chic space with a slightly contemporary edge, try injecting some clean-lined furniture, accessories and architectural interest. 




Fun and Feminine

Shabby chic is all about fun, feminine finishes.

Mix and Match
Don't be afraid to mix furnishings in different finishes, colors and styles, or from different eras. Painted, stained and distressed woods are represented in this shabby chic bedroom, as well as metals and iron.

Beautiful Built-Ins
Create an inviting cottage-style entry with the addition of a built-in bench, coat hooks and cubbies. To further enhance the look, use a bench cushion, throw pillows or storage boxes covered in floral patterns.
