Don't you love unexpected accessories....Unexpected oversized lighting... Unexpected art... I have been looking for something unexpected for above my sofa, I will let you know when I find something! Any suggestions?
Yes, I love the unexpected. I while back I remember seeing an enormous framed piece of lace work over a bed. It was fabulous, something I would never have thought of-and I generally think lace is too girly.
It's so much more interesting when it is unexpected... that bike is such a crazy statement, and the kitchen is lovely, the lights have such great natural texture. :) Flick
It is the unexpected that gives a house some personality!! I love to go into someone's home and see something different and unique, it always makes me smile!
The bike is crazy...cute! Unexpected, I think that is the hardest element to bring into a room without it feeling contrived. I think to work it definitely has to have personal meaning, good luck finding just the right item! Janell
i love blowing up old black and white vintage photos and framing them on walls..i always find funny ones that you really need to look at to see all of the "bits".. i also love old vintage french maps in various shades of color..the dog on the board is so sweet... love this post. hope you are well xx pam
Great pictures! It's the unexpected that can really make a room and it's usually the hardest thing to find. I am sure you will find that perfect item you are looking for!
I love that fabric on the shades of the last pic!! And those pendants in the kitchen, I love oversized things!
Over - or a few feet behind, I should say - our couch, we have a gallery wall with sconces on either side. I really wanted a mirror, but I had one in the entry and one in the dining room, which is totally open and off of the family room - and I thought that might just be too much. I like the gallery wall, even if it's a bit expected, because it allows me to change it out, and to see the pictures every day. Plus, it fills up a large wall.

i think that bike is at a house in oxford, i remember when it was featured in my home ideas.... i love that big lighting in the kitchen.
I agree. Love all 3 of those images!
Oh yes, GOT to have something unexpected. I love all those examples, but especially the art!
that bike..wow..certainly unexpected. great pics.
That unexpected art is so fun!
I know you'd agree that the unexpected is what makes design, good design. Thinking of you!
Really fun and unique images. A three dimentional work of art maybe done on metal , or varying sizes of canvas attached as one piece.

Sure makes for a more interesting space! Love it!
I am not even a dog person but I just love that dog above the bed.. . . Really like the look of photographs put to canvas.
I do! And that bike is AWESOME. Duly noted.
I will have to admit that orange bicycle was completely unexpected!
