6 style tips from southern living

Today we have a few simple tricks for subtle styling details that add big impact to a home. Interior designer for the Southern Living Idea house Heather Chadduck Hillegas suggests these signature style accents to add just the right amount of traditional flair to your rooms.

Tassels are any easy way to finish off the look of a china cabinet. Or add it to an antique skeleton key for a whimsical touch at a door.

Fabulous ticking stripe drapes and the addition of a bamboo rod, always a great look!

Cuttings from the garden like palm frond or ferns set in a plain glass jug are an easy way to add a vibrant accent to your home.

It’s always fun to add one quirky piece to your home. In the case of this vintage chair, it’s quite useful for setting down your purse or packages near the back door.

Every home should have what Heather calls a “celebration station”. Furnish yours with vintage glasses, trays and a cute basket for holding lemons.

Finally, Heather suggests having at least one antique piece in each room. These pieces tell a story and add much needed character to a room.

Check back later this week for an in-depth home tour of the 2019 Southern Living Idea House that celebrates "Timeless Style".
