I love to study the details in a room. When I look at a magazine I will skim over the page quickly, then I will go back and study all the little details that I might have missed.
It is the details that will make a space special.
I actually have a pinboard on Pinterest specifically for DETAILS!!
Today I am going to share a few details that I think can add that extra special touch to a room.
SKIFFERS
I have never seen these before, but I love this little practical embellishment. What a great way to prevent scuffs from the vacuum cleaner.
They come in different metal finishes too!! Silver, brass and antique brass. Fun little detail!!
MIRRORS
The reason I pinned this little night stand is I think adding an antique mirror to a drawer front would be a great idea to beef up the style of a simple piece. Adding a embellished pull also adds to the appeal of this piece.
Simple to do too! Just make a template or take your drawer into a glass cutter and have it cut and use silicone to apply to drawer and Voila! A whole new look.
CRISS-CROSS

I love this criss-cross transom above the door. It duplicates the criss-cross element on the vanity. Simple detail but gives a lot of W-O-W factor!!
If you are desinging a den/office, or a room for a man this next idea is so handsome!!
BELTS AND PLEATING
I love this detail, notice the pleating at the bottom. It is made to look as if the belt is drawing the fabric in, just like a belt would on a kilt. Great detail and nothing was missed on the execution of this idea.
PLANKING
Planking the walls is a detail we are seeing a lot of, but what I want you to take notice of in this bathroom is how they went up a bit higher for the faucet placement.
This is so much more interesting than if they had made it go straight across, don’t you think?
Remember when executing a design in your room make sure to add some special details to take it up a notch!!

Skiffers - what a great idea. never seen that, but so useful.
I love these ideas. I saw the skiffers one and wondered if I would actually ever do it? It looks so fancy, and I'm casual.
