Three Leaf Stems in Sage and Cream Canvas Print

Open the curtains at mid-morning; the soft sage green will handle the drama. It is a quiet piece, so the room does the talking and this simply keeps everything settled. Hang it in a bedroom, hallway or reading corner where you want less noise on the wall. It works above a chest of drawers, a bedside table or a slim console, and it sits happily in a pair either side of a doorway. Pair it with pale wood, linen, woven baskets and stoneware in cream or clay. What not to do: crowd it with loud, high-contrast pieces or heavy patterned wallpaper, which flattens the fine linework. As a canvas the matt surface takes the shine off the cream ground, so it stays soft under lamplight.
