Etsy Finds: Getting Jill Bliss' Look - Home Decor Edition


Story by Iheartmoustaches Published on January 11, 2009 in Spotlight	Photo by design*sponge

This weekend's Get the Look: Decor is inspired by the Portland, Oregon 1912 farm house of illustrator extraordinaire Jill Bliss. The walls in her home are painted with soft muted colors, much like the color palette often found in her beautifully detailed illustrations. She surrounds herself with inspiring artwork, and takes special care in how each of her collections is displayed. Today we're going to show you how to achieve the art filled sanctuary Jill calls home using elements found on Etsy. You can view more inspiring photos of Jill's home in the Sneak Peeks column on design*sponge.
