Decorating Tips

Selecting a Color

Colors are always a personal choice. All our colors are chosen to complement each other. You probably want to start by looking at the wall color of your space. Are you looking for items that will "pop"? If you want pop, go for complimentary colors: pink with green, yellow with purple. If you are looking for more of a soothing look, go for more of a blending. You can still have lavenders with yellow, but throw in some pinks to add some transitions. Looking for stunning? Try dark pinks with orange for a creamsicle look or dark pink with blue (our favorite for stunning). If you really can't decide, visit our design studio. You can choose your wall color and add butterflies in various colors. You can also get a sense of the various sizes in relation to each other. Have fun!


Hang from the Ceiling

 

1. Open up wings or petals.

Hanging Mobiles

1. Open out wings so they look like they are in flight.


2.  Hang by hoop on a hook or remove hoop and tie to a thumbtack.  Hang on ceiling.

 

Tie Backs

1.  Tie the ribbon around the back side of your curtain and then back around and tie a single knot under the bug or flower. 


2.  If you wish to let curtain hang free, tie and leave.  If you wish to anchor to the wall, screw in a hook to the wall just outside the window frame and hook on the ribbon of the tieback.
