Prints and textures are a wonderful way to bring some flair to a space. Even just one pattern on a small accent, such as an ottoman or lamp shade, can make a space feel more dynamic. You don’t have to use a lot to make an impact.
One of the most popular choice of pattern is animal print. The cool thing about animal prints are that they are very versatile and are naturally beautiful. They work in a subtle, neutral space or can take on a very bold, colorful flavor. It’s all in the print you choose, the color of the print, and how much of it you use.
When used right, animal print can look very chic and stylish in a classic way. To inspire you, here are 10 rooms that did animal print decor the right way.
