Taking Flight

This month's style tip will transform your home into an exotic paradise full of colourful birds and extraordinary flowers. Rich teal greens, hot pinks and touches of black will create a luxurious feel to your room of choice.

Zoffany 'Manchu' wallpaper

Harlequin 'Lovara' fabric

Create your paradise with a touch of glamour by using the above 'Manchu' wallpaper by Zoffany; with a hint of metallic, this wallpaper will bring your room to life, as it creates a subtle shimmer. Or for a bolder look, why not try a set of floor grazing curtains in the above 'Lovara' fabric by Harlequin. To get the most of this look, try some elegant, french style, metal furniture painted in a pale or metallic colour. (All of the above fabric and wallpaper is available from Sasha Interiors, Hereford.)

or...

Personalise it!

Create a feature out of some twig like branches; spray them gold and arrange in a sleek vase for a clean yet effective look. Continue the theme onto bare walls by using Rococo style picture frames or an extravagant mirror.

Experiment with:

• A luxurious rug - continuing the rich colour onto the floor
• Light fittings - to really make that metallic wallpaper shimmer!
