Have you got a colour theme or particular style this Christmas?
if you need to add to your collection, at the @roughamestateshop we have colour themes and styles to suit nearly every home. From disco to snow, from scandi to Woodland and much, much more.
It’s the place to go this Christmas!
#roughamestate #blackthorpebarn #makingmagicalmemories #christmasshop
If the Christmas woodland theme wasn’t your cup of tea, then how about this Rococo style?
The flamboyant and ornate style of art, originated in 18th-century France, is characterised by its decorative asymmetry, curving lines, and use of light colors, pastel palettes, and natural motifs like shells and flowers. It certainly makes a statement.
Christmas is the perfect time to inject some flair into your home and this style is perfect for that.
All items are in the shop to create your own rococo style at home. Follow the @roughamestateshop to find out how!
