How to Decorate With Vintage Blonde Furniture

Blonde furniture is brightly colored with a yellow tint and is typically made of wood. Although it may seem difficult to incorporate this type of vintage furniture into your dcor, there are a variety of options, whether your goal is to work on the kitchen, living room or bedroom. When dealing with a vintage theme for your home, just about anything can work as long as you have an eclectic and artful approach. Does this Spark an idea?

Instructions

1

Take advantage of the blonde furniture in your kitchen space and install blonde cabinetry and flooring to make this color the room's focal point. With such a bright main color, use dark accents that contrast the brightness. For instance, black appliances and countertops work well as a contrast with blonde vintage furniture. Use a variety of colorful art pieces on the walls, ensuring that you incorporate a yellow tint to complement the blonde surroundings.

2

Lay a rich-colored area rug underneath a blonde vintage coffee or accent table. This not only offsets the brightness of the table, but with the right color, you're enhancing the visual effects of the blonde furniture. A good example of an area rug is one that features contrasting elements, such as burgundy patterns with blonde or yellow highlights throughout. You can also opt for a solid-colored area rug, such as black, dark brown or plain burgundy.

3

Decorate the shelves with brightly colored accessories, such as vases, jars, figurine collections or any type of colorful abstract artwork. This complements the vintage eclectic approach and adds a bit of personality to the space.

4

Use solid-colored furniture for the larger pieces, such as the sofa, bed or chaise lounge. To tie in the furniture with the blonde aspects of the room, simply use a throw blanket with a colorful pattern that includes the color of the larger furniture as well as the color of the blonde furniture.

5

Create a modern or contemporary vintage theme with the blonde furniture in your space. If you're decorating a kitchen that has blonde furniture, use geometrical shapes for other aspects of the dcor and keep the clutter to a minimum. If you're decorating a bedroom, purchase a platform bed with a wide, rectangular frame and hang a large oval mirror on the wall. Place abstract lamps on the side tables and keep all unused items hidden. For a living room, decorate with egg-shaped lounger chairs or a simple chaise lounge to bring out the eclectic, modern style with vintage highlights.
