Marrakesh Stylings

Since pesky work prevents me from flying to Morocco today, I thought I would bring Morocco to me! Lately, I have been seeing Moroccan trinkets, furniture and textiles popping up in shops everywhere… and there will be no complaints from me! I am drawn to the delicate detailing of the metal lanterns, the intricate patterns on the textiles and the curved arches of the furniture legs. Really, if I had my way, our house would resemble a Bedouin tent (ooooh, now I am getting ideas for the garden!)

    My favorite country...ever. Our house has tons of Moroccan art from our travels there. Such a beautiful country...although Marrakesh was my least favorite....so blazing hot there I almost died!

    A Bedouin themed garden would be amazing! Love the collection of items you posted - I keep trying to pick a fave, but I love them all (though the mirror and table lamp are especially fantastic)!

    So many gorgeous finds! I have always have a thing for Moroccan lanterns and the blue one you picked is no exception. I also adore the throw pillow, the pendant light and the table runner. I imagine with all these wonderful items in a dining area, it will look absolutely beautiful and enchanting!

    Love all of these items - I always love anything in the direction of ethnic! It brings back great memories from when I traveled there many years ago. I went with two friends and we shopped a LOT but I still wish I'd brought more home with me than I did! :)
