Hey every person! Nowadays the content material workforce is having about the site! Our names are Jenna and Ramona, and among the two of us we produce and deliver most of the content you see on Juniper Print Shop & Jenny’s web site. We assumed it would be enjoyment to give you a powering the scenes appear at how we fashion new Juniper prints in our studio place! We typically design and style in between 3-10 prints a 7 days, and individuals photographs are made use of for the print shop web page, social media, and style and design information for Jenny’s weblog. This week we are styling Vale by Laurel-Dawn Latshaw. She had 4 new prints hit the print shop this week!! You can store her assortment listed here.
Ahead of moving to our existing business office space, we had a vibrant and attractive studio (examine out a tour of our old house here) that was great for photography, and we grew seriously accustomed to styling most of our Juniper Print Store information in-household. Our current room has much more of a warehouse feel, which has manufactured that a problem! Past calendar year we were being equipped to have a handful of studio sets designed in the again of one particular of our workplace spaces to give the seem and sense of a serious residence. The sets are entire with relocating walls, fake home windows, changeable wall moldings and two unique kinds of flooring, which signifies we can build fully exclusive rooms each individual time we fashion!
The initial move is determining what kind of room we want to make. We generally rotate concerning living rooms, bedrooms, or entry areas. We realized we desired this print to be outsized, so we determined on dwelling place so we could hang it over a couch. Our studio place has numerous wall molding alternatives we can swap in and out to give each and every styled place a totally distinctive glance, so we opted for a standard wainscoting in this article.
Subsequent we make a decision on our colour scheme. One of our favored elements of styling on a set is receiving to use exciting, bold paint colours. Though most people are normally drawn to a neutral palette for dwelling interiors, our studio space is the ideal position to experiment with punchier hues. We depend greatly on our Benjamin Moore and Farrow & Ball paint decks. (Even if you aren’t a designer, a supporter deck can be super practical to help visualize hues in your house!) We generally decide our wall colour based mostly on the tones of the print we are styling. We like to pull a lesser applied tone in the artwork, or a complimentary shade. For this certain print, we chose a muted green by Benjamin Moore identified as Desert Twilight, that performed definitely very well the the muddy blue-environmentally friendly tones the artist used.
After settling on our paint, we pick out a frame shade. When styling more compact sized prints, we commonly adhere with completely ready-manufactured frames in neutral shades like white, black, gold or wooden. For this space we are heading with an outsized print, which indicates working with the Ikea Bjorksta frame. The Bjorksta body only comes in black or silver, so we enjoy to spray paint it to get a new seem! Last 12 months we wrote a truly beneficial article about our “Tried & True” spray paint colours and produced these very little sample frame items that we use to decide on a body shade all the time. We understood we wished to pair a gold or brass complete with this print, so we brought out a several favorites. We finished up settling on Rustoleum’s Satin Bronze.

The moment we finalize our shade plan, we choose on what furnishings we want to use in the room. Due to the fact we went with a daring wall color, we determined to hold the couch neutral. We definitely cherished the way this white slip protected couch popped in opposition to the green.
Future up is selecting a rug. Rugs can be tricky, so we normally like to have one thing in thoughts early on in the style procedure. We weren’t absolutely sure if we wished to use a bolder, striped choice or something classic encouraged. We like Loloi rugs, so we pulled in a few that we not too long ago added to our prop assortment. (If you are in the current market we really advocate the 1 on the suitable. It is SO unbelievably gentle!)

After we narrowed down our decisions, we brought them into the house to see how they appeared. Whilst the three vintage-motivated rugs seemed wonderful with the wall colour, they all felt a minor too pink for the print, so we made the decision on the stripe.
Next up is adding modest furniture. Styling for a image can be a lot different than styling for an actual living space. In your home you’d generally make choices dependent on how you live and function inside the space. For a picture, we tend to focus much more on scale, condition and visual stability. We made the decision on a wooden dresser as an oversized facet table. Getting the excess peak on this facet of the body gave the desk lamp a lot more visual balance with the floor lamp and curtains on the other facet. We layered in an supplemental wooden side desk to produce some dimension, and then tried out a couple of unique espresso tables, just before in the long run choosing on two modest ottomans. This helps the foreground of the frame to come to feel lighter and retains your eye moving throughout the house.

The following step (and at times the most difficult) is deciding upon pillows. Pillows can speedily alter the really feel of a place, so it’s generally great to have a color palette and type in mind. We have collected so lots of pillows in excess of the a long time. We constantly locate very good picks at Concentrate on and other large box retailers, but our absolute most loved location to source pillows is on Etsy!
Classic Kilim pillows are a staple about listed here, and we love pairing them with fashionable prints. We normally propose applying a superior good quality down insert, it will make these kinds of a massive big difference in how your pillows appear and sense!

Following some demo and error, we lastly narrowed down our choices to just a few. Mainly because we typically want the art to be the aim of our photographs, we check out to pick pillows that perform off the shades of the print without the need of overpowering the room.

One of the last techniques in the styling method is introducing in a layer of decor. This can consist of baskets, vases, trays… really anything you appreciate! We have a Massive selection of styling items right here in our studio. We like to combine shades, materials, and from time to time include in pieces that are a small little bit funky or bizarre.
We are normally on the hunt for new attractive pieces. We uncover a good deal of our compact decor at vintage suppliers and thrift retailers. We also love to purchase new products to test out ahead of adding them to the Shop Our Finds segment of the website! Some decor objects get employed a couple occasions ahead of getting donated or handed on to buddies, relatives or coworkers, while some others have been in our rotation for Decades!

The remaining step is introducing greenery and flowers. Even in a studio place, refreshing florals are a ought to!!
We usually check out to prevent by our area Trader Joes on image shoot days, but we use frequent grocery keep flowers all the time and no one is the wiser. As long as you know what you are hunting for, you can resource gorgeous bouquets from nearly any where! Some of our favorites are peonies, alstroemeria, ranunculus, chamomile, dahlias, mums, and we normally really like seeded eucalyptus for some greenery!
