{Mood Board Monday} Etsy Artwork

I am so excited to participate in my first Mood Board Monday link party with Sarah at Pewter+Sage.  I haven't created a mood board since college (and I am still a little new to making it on the computer) but I had a lot of fun creating this room for a pretend client with no budget!!

Sarah's challenge is to create a room around one of three unique pieces of art from creative Etsy artists. I choose to work with Carl Christensen's photo "Romance of Fall".

Isn't it beautiful?! I chose this piece of art because of the rustic feel with the trees and the beautiful colors of the autumn leaves.

For this board, I set out to create a rustic yet beautiful space with a modern color scheme. My color scheme was pulled directly from the photo- the yellow of the leaves, the gray of the sidewalk and the white wooden fence.  I also incorporated many rustic elements to bring the "nature" in.
I'm still learning when it comes to mood boards but I enjoyed putting this one together! Make sure you hop over to Sarah's blog and check out the other mood boards. They are all gorgeous!

  5. I love your moodboard Laura. I thought that was a beautiful photograph but wasn't sure which way to go with it. The colour scheme you've chosen is perfect and I love the classic vibe in the room! :)

  6. Visually stunning board. You have captured the colors and theme wonderfully. The rug extends the whole woodsy idea while adding a soft texture to the space. I have always like those beautiful drapes. Great table, too!
