Art prints of safari animals are dressed up and ready for formal rooms. And monkeys and elephants are getting into the act, gracing window treatments and lending themselves as the perfect base for a lamp. Our love affair with animal prints is nothing new, however. It's been around for ages and is considered classic. Animal prints may be a trend right now, but they've really always been with us even in little doses.
Animal prints can suit many homes and many kinds of people.
Items can range from entire living room suites to simple accessories such as table runners and candles. I don't really advise that people do an entire upholstered piece in them. Instead, Clark often uses a simple animal print throw over a corner of a chair or perhaps a faux leopard print pillow as an accent for a neutral sofa. She decorated a model home at the new Heritage Place development and used cheetah print sheets and pillow cases as a backdrop to the neutral colored comforter. The look is drawing compliments, Clark said.
