Denim in Decor

Denim is so well-loved when we dress ourselves, so what about using it when we dress our homes? Here are a few looks at denim used in decor. A few of these are faux paint finishes, but the outcome is rather denim-y and we think this can be done without becoming western-themed!...

I like the wall finish in that entry hall...

...but please don't encourage denim sofas - we don't need that trend back!

I love the color of the store front looks like one of my favorite BM paint colors "Gentleman's Gray".

bepsf: LOL! I very briefly considered buying a denim sofa 15 years ago ... so glad I didn't!

I had a denim finished (paint technique) guest room, I absolutely loved it. It's not hard to do either.
