I want to redecorate a TV room with a southernly garden feel. Lots of sunflowers, color, and plants involved. Any ideas for furniture and decoration :)??

Ideas for a garden theme!!?
Instead of a chair rail around the room, why not put up a 3 ft. high white picket fence around the room or at least on one wall with a tree and flowers painted beyond the fence and maybe a swing hanging from the tree. You can have some nice silk flowers poking through the fence. For room furniture use outdoor furnishings like wicker. Maybe even a hammock could be hung from two tree's painted on opposite walls in the room.
Reply:Garden style is typified by an atmosphere of fresh and pretty things, including floral prints, especially in chintz fabrics, needlepoint pillows, framed botanicals, painted wood furniture, lace accents, fresh flowers and china antiques.





THINK OUTDOOR: sky, trees, flowers, grass, stones and water. Ever thought of adding water mini water fountain? Paint "stone pathway"? Stencil a tree on one wall? Build a birdhouse serve as a lamp?





IDEAS:


Mix new and old, washed white and dark wooded furnitures, pictures, etc

Reply:i wouldn't go to floral pattern crazy with the furniture cause that can look outdated. i would go with a light green colour for the walls, u can still put sunflowers on them if u want.

Lay down a floral area rug:

You could hang pictures of flowers (love the "Peonies and Delphinium" by Janet Walsh):

As for furnishings, I would get a wicker patio set with colorful seat cushions:
