Owls! I know you've seen them everywhere. Owls were a staple home accessory in the 1970's, and they've made a successful comeback. Just peek through ZGallerie or West Elm's catalogue and you'll see how this vintage trend is making a significant impact on the modern home.
I recently spent a lot of time hankering over West Elm's current line of products, after attending the Pinterest Meet-Up. I fell in love with this frosty blue owl lamp that I saw perched high on the display wall. Unfortunately I'm too cheap to drop $100 on a lamp, so I mosyed on (to adore the papier-mâché wildebeest, of course).
I even bought an ugly owl wood sculpture thing the other day, from Ross or TJ Maxx, I forget which. I plan to turn it into a a fab home office companion, you just wait – it's going to be so easy! I decided to write this post to persuade those of you out there who think, "what am I going to do with creepy owl decor?" Check out these options, nearly every big home store is selling some form of owl:
Ease into owls by installing either of these accessories. Hide the owl hook behind your door, or replace your standard switchplate with this owl rustic piece.
