Happy Spring from Nadia Watts Interior Design! 🌷

Spring is here! While the weather seems unpredictable this time of year, it’s hard not to get excited for flowering trees, spring blooms, and of course warmer weather. In honor of Spring’s arrival, I’m sharing my favorite Spring inspired floral fabrics in “Watts your favorite…” this month.

Happy Spring!

What about hanging two of these over your kitchen island? Designed by Kelly Wearster, this beautiful pendant commands the space especially in this antique-burnished brass finish.

Looking for a little drama? I love how the detail cutouts at the edge of this pendant adds character and enough excitement to make this an eye catching work of art.

Fish anyone? I love the level of detail in each fish. The design and layout of the overall wallpaper makes this one of my favorite fun papers!

Jim Thompson Dragon Dance

While Jim Thompson may be known for their beautiful silks, this wallpaper is a standout all on it's own. It's a whimsical dragon scene with movement and flow. It's a great addition to any space looking for excitement and energy.

Lee Jofa Antlers

It's rustic, it's modern, it's chic, it's fun! I love how this wallpaper can be used in so many different types of rooms. From an updated home in the mountains, to a fun accent wall in a study.

Happy Thanksgiving from NWID!

Hello Friends,

November has been a busy month at Nadia Watts Interior Design. With a home renovation and install behind us, and projects in the pipeline we are looking forward to the busy months ahead.

On top of all of the fun projects we are working on, the holidays are right around the corner. If you're like me you're asking- What?! Thanksgiving? This week!? Where's my pecan pie recipe?!

Before the week passes me by, I want to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving! Whether you are a forever client who has worked with me for years and needed a few things reupholstered in their bedroom, or a new client looking for design work on a full scale home remodel, I want to say thank you. I grateful for your continued business and support. 

Happy Thanksgiving!

Nadia

This carpet defines transitional design: 50% traditional 50% modern. The bold and bright color give this rug life and excitement.

One of my favorite rugs! It's completely unexpected but the rich colors add so much warmth! And the thick pile makes this rug super comfortable!

WATTS YOUR FAVORITE... TILE

Marrakech Design Dandelion

Petal/Milk

This tile is truly a FUN tile. The hexagon shape allows for multiple patterns and styles simply by arranging the lines in a different direction. And the color is beyond dreamy and perfect for a modern and creative update.

Sonoma Tile Maker's Euphoria

Crackle/Summer Breeze

This tile is great when you want a classic, timeless look that has a little bit of an alter ego.  The 'crackle' finish gives variation to each tiles and makes for a stunning backsplash. When laid out the look is elegant and totally unique!

Image from www.sonomatilemakers.com

AKADO's Angle Pitch

Black (Etched) 

This tile is bold and edgy (pun intended!). The shape alone would add a dramatic element to any kitchen backsplash or bathroom tile work, but the grainy, free flowing, organic pattern make this tile a winner!

How to Style Your Bookshelves

Bookshelves are an ideal place to show off your style, to showcase things you love and reveal your personality in subtle ways.  But lots of homeowners admit that they have a hard time figuring out how to make their bookshelves look magazine-worthy.

I have good news:  It's easier than you think!  I've gathered a few photos and my best advice to help you get started.  Have fun! 

From HGTV: For timeless style, group similar books together and add decorative objects (like those eagle bookends and the rotary phone) that feel classic.  The library ladder is a perfect touch, don't you think? 

From Design Lines: One simpe tip is to stack some books horizontally, and top some of these stacks with interesting objects.  Easy-peasy, right? 

From Primed4Design: Small pieces of framed art on your bookshelves give your room warmth and interest.  The collection here feels so well curated: textureal, quirky, beautiful. I love it!

From Primed4Design: Group your books by color and display them with colorful accessories.  So fun! 

From Homesick Designs: All right, I admit that this took more than simple styling.  But I love that the piece integrates bookshelves and an entertainment system- a perfect solution to the black-box-on-the-wall problem with flat-screened TVs.  You might also take a cue from this room and add round objects to your bookshelves; the curves help break up the linear look of books. 

From Sawdust Girl: Who says you have to put books on your bookshelves?  There are very few tomes on this shelf, and it looks awesome with sculptural items and framed pictures. 

If you have bookshelves you've styled and you want to show them off, send them to me at nadia@nadiawatts.com, and I'll put them in an upcoming post- with a link to your website or blog, if you have one!  

Happy Styling! 

Sitting on a Bench Never Looked So Good

Benches, benches, benches. They're so easy and versatile--and a perfect way to add surprising style to your home. Add one to your casual dining area. Put one in a large entry. Line a wall in the living room with one, so you can pull it out when you have parties. (And while it's not in use, you can style it like a coffee table or with a slew of pretty pillows.)

Need some inspiration? Here are a few beautiful benches I'm loving right now:

From Designers Craft, this antique bench has to-die-for feet. Carved and lovely!

From Denver's own Scandinavian Antiques, this ornate piece is pure art.

This sculptural bench from Mod Livin' will definitely be a conversation-starter. Made of interlocking loops of hot-rolled steel, it oozes contemporary style.

Design icon Charles Eames invented a technique that bends and shapes plywood, leading to so many of the forms we see from the middle 20th century. This butterfly stool is a perfect example. Sexy, right?

Of course, many of us love upholstered benches for their softness and elegance, and this beauty from Denver's HW Home shows off a beautiful Moroccan print.

If you're going to opt for a dining bench, like this one from Arhaus, leather or indoor-outdoor fabric are good, easy-to-clean options. (Red wine knows no bounds!)
