When It's Good It Lasts Forever

Every so often something  is so stylish it has universal appeal and staying power. We may groan and moan and say we get sick of it because it seems overexposed. Yet, we get strangely drawn to it, feeling comfortable as with an old friend. It never let's us down. It's always stylish. Just a small jolt of it infuses any room with the rare combination of traditional and classic with the modern and hip.

Some things never go out of style
And so it is with something so well designed it seems to stay around forever.  It's always stylish. Whether you add a small jolt of it, or cover the walls with it, it makes any room feel fresh and updated,

Always in style

Add it and your room somehow says "designer". And because it is a designer item, it is expensive, and even after years of being around it has not been greatly discounted.

But if you look on Etsy, you can find it at good prices, but still a little pricey. Leave to good old Target to have had a knock off for at least year that is still available on the web site. This is the best bang for the buck - you get TWO for $24.99!

In honor of this great deal I give you a round up of the classic Imperial Trellis originally designed for Scuhmacher by Kelly Wearstler. Oh stop your moaning. It's going to be around forever, and it will always work when you want to add something fresh and well designed to any room.

Add  a couple of those Target pillows to your couch for a similar look

Another couch to inspire you - get those Target pillows for this look!

Love the Imperial Trellis on the headboard

The chairs covered in Imperial Trellis are forever stylish

Kate Spade did a bedroom with it

Blogger and artist and designer Nicole Cohen did a bedroom with it too

Designer and TV star Brian Patrick Flynn used Imperial Trellis too

Imperial Trellis makes this window seat in an older home look fresh

I used the Target pillows for a party I designed in New Orleans (Valorie Hart Designs for NOCCA Art of the Feast)
