Accent Chest Hunt...

Hey all...

How is the weekend going on??...

Well we have a longgg weekend here in USA, as July 4th is the Independence Day here. 

Well coming back to the post, recently we were thinking a lot of having an accent chest for our living room. But haven't yet come up with something final. Still looking for good design, utility storage, should go with our dark chocolate colored sectional and of course the big word it should be 'in budget'. I saw some, so thought of sharing and having your feedback for options.

Have a look!

'Not So Elegant' collection by Designing Life

Ideas are all around us, and so is art. Indian Kitsch Art is an art

form which always fascinated me. They are filled with vivid

representations of popular cultural themes. From simple hand-print

on a village wall, to giant cut outs of film posters is kitsch.

It is an opportunity for expression and communication.

I believe, art in form is expression. With the wish to create

simple designs from uncomplicated ideas, I chose

this wonderful art of expression to express my love

for Kitsch and named it ‘not so elegant’.

I wish my whole idea of Indian Kitsch Art should be affordable

and should have the ‘within reach’ factor throughout the masses.
