Thanksgiving Series - The Chinoiserie Dining Room

Shelley Johnstone - Traditional Home

 This lovely dining room is in a home in Lake Forest, Illinois where I grew. up While traditional, the color palette of orange damask on the walls and pops of turquoise on the sideboard give it a modern vibe.

The Tiny Chinoiserie Entryway

A tiny entryway can still be fun and chic and filled with Chinoiserie. These are some Instagrams I took yesterday at my daughter's darling Chinoiserie Chic apartment. You will see more of her place down the road. I love the combination of orange and turquoise. I have also started a Pinterest board on small Chinoiserie entryways for more inspiration.

Orange and Turquoise Chinoiserie

Kendall Wilkinson

This room by Kendall Wilkinson is a favorite of mine. I'm sure it was this room that launched our love affair with using orange, turquoise, and Chinoiserie together. Stay tuned this week for my interview with Kendall and a look at her amazing portfolio. We will also be finishing up our series on Chinoiserie and Color with blue, green, and blue and white. Have a great idea for an upcoming series you'd like to see? Leave a comment or email me.
