Boho Global Inspiration For My New Orleans Shotgun

I have been thinking a lot about what direction I'm going to go in with my decorating in my new Creole Cottage shotgun rental in New Orleans.

I have a red velvet couch that I'm taking my inspiration from.

It has beautiful original hardwood floors so some oriental rugs are in order.

I'm seeing rich colors and textures. Dark woods and shiny black accents. As always- global fabrics, and maybe some damask (it is New Orleans after all). Think glamorous bohemian.

I think I will paint the walls with earthy and organic tones, but light ones.

It also has Very high ceilings and large windows so there will be plenty of light to keep it fresh.

Mood lighting and lamps are also on my search list to create a cozy and entertaining friendly vibe.
