"Boho Chic is a free-spirited aesthetic that mixes different cultures and artistic expressions into an eclectic style with an emphasis on organic elements and nature. When putting together your boho style space, mixing patterns, metals, woods, materials, animal hides and trinkets from your travels is highly encouraged." HGTV/Chair of the ASID National Board, designer Kerrie Kelly
TEN tips to achieve Boho Chic in your home.
One: Layers
Layer rugs, blankets and throw
pillows, and create a conversation pit.
🌿I layer sheepskin on my sofa, as seen here, for texture and protect my sofa from pets.

Four: Life of Travel Inspiration
🌿Boho Chic is all about travel inspiration and the objects we collect and display from other cultures.
I love how everything is displayed on this wall. Texture, art and celebrating many cultures.
What a story this display tells!

Five: Living Greenery
Plants and succulents are a Boho Chic must! They purify the air! Choose artisan baskets and pots to house them. If you don't have a green thumb, bring in artwork with foliage.👇

Ten: Furniture
This is a great example of a Boho Chic space. Low sofa, light leather covering, low coffee table and warm wood tones.
🌿Note: live greenery, rattan chair, handmade baskets, light airy window treatments, pillow fringe, poufs and aztec rug. Don't be afraid to add vintage well worn pieces to your eclectic space.
