My Modern Nursery #34: Mid-Century Style Peacock
I think we all agree that Room & Board’s stock color for their Shay Glider is an unusual choice, but I went with it and made it work. It would have been very easy to do flowery and heavy patterns here, (maybe I’ll use the chair again in another board and take it in a different direction!) but I went for a more restrained look and it just went all Mid-Century on me– in a good way.
