Popular in fashion and beauty, ombre is moving into home
décor. From the French meaning, “shaded,” ombre is a century old technique of
dyeing or weaving fabrics, creating a gentle progression from light to dark.
The ombre style has a pleasing effect on the
eye, and can be dramatic or ethereal, depending on the depth of tones used.
There are both daring and simple ways to incorporate the fresh, modern look
into your home, whether it is with pillows, curtains, or even the balusters on
your stairs.
If
you’re a bit more daring, bringing ombre to your walls can instantly bring
depth and character to your space, with little need to decorate. In the case of
ombre, a little can go a long way in giving your room a story.
