Featured This Month | A Unique Neutral Home

In September, we embrace what summer has left to offer; long days with plenty of sunshine for outdoor activities, gardens that are still in full bloom for one last hit of the season and the timing to re-think our décor before the autumn equinox is perfect. Prepare yourself for the seasonal shift with a fresh mindset and a de-cluttered home. Start by lighting a candle to scent the home with notes of sandalwood, then start by organising your home. Let us give you some inspiration with this month’s feature.

This month’s “Featured this month” entrant is the sensational home of Chess @floraliehome. Chess’s home is a haven of style, with beautiful bright, fresh and clean décor, enhanced by natural lighting in her home. For anyone looking for a neutral colour palette, Chess’s home is a neutral paradise.

Soon, Chess will be swapping out the bright green hydrangeas for coffee-coloured accessories and maroon floral pieces but until then, let’s embrace the last of the summer in Chess’s home.

Household Wicker Baskets

Not only does Chess style her home immaculately with beautiful décor, but she also has a knack for styling useful and classy accessories. Let’s start in the laundry room.

Chess has designed the dreamiest space to do her laundry in. She has transformed this busy space in her home by using calming, muted tones, complete with charming accessories for style, such as jars for pegs, and white and green floral blooms to keep the summer vibe alive.

Chess has chosen our Grey & Buff Rattan Round Wicker Laundry Basket, to add to the aesthetically pleasing appearance of this stunning utility room. Tap the image on the right to see the reel!

Wicker Boot Room Baskets

Chess’s charming boot room space means that the floor stays tidy and the hallway is clear from clutter. Our Grey & Buff Rattan Wicker Shopping Basket sits beautifully on top of the storage unit which is the perfect accessory for adding rustic charm and keeping flowers in. In the meantime, this unique accessory is also perfect for a spot of foraging. As our hedgerows are now laden with blackberries and damsons and the trees are filled with crab apples, this Grey & Buff Rattan Shopping Basket is the perfect accessory to help carry all your freshly collected fruit and berries back to your kitchen.

Wicker Storage Baskets

Chess’s storage and organisational styling tips are impeccable. In this beautiful utility space, she has chosen a feature brick wall for a country-inspired feel, amongst natural décor, complete with rustic Wicker Console Baskets to keep this space tidy and organised.

Wicker Pots And Planters

Cottage gardens that are designed with simplicity in mind, are often the most charming. Chess has recently renovated her lovely garden and added her creative flair, complete with a gravel pathway, a metal arch and a luxurious seating area underneath a pergola. Perfect for early morning coffees outside and evening drinks in the garden, whilst the hazy Indian summer sun sets.

For the most beautiful flower display, she has combined a collection of different types of planters from our wicker planter collection to create such a perfect display in her garden, filled with beautiful white and green flowers for elegance and style.

Wicker Log baskets

Finally, cosy feature pieces are starting to make an appearance in Chess’s home. Plush cushions in a Grey & Buff Rattan Square Wicker Log Basket for style and comfort and cosy, soft bedding for chillier evenings, complete with a beautiful rustic footstool for added character, oozing a modern-country inspired space. The perfect home pieces for the upcoming season of style.

As we slowly transition into autumn, Chess’s home can be enhanced with autumnal pops of burgundy, like burnt oranges, and pumpkins. It’s a beautiful home to enjoy watching, so don’t forget to follow her on Instagram here and follow her YouTube channel here for more home hauls.
