Kirsty ForderDanetti How To: Halloween Colour Style-Crush
Halloween has been our excuse for getting creative and indulging ourselves in a bit of colour fun. We’ve created a simple but impactful display, a homage to the Pumpkin and the colours of the season from one of our trend boards. Teal and Peacock shades are a huge colour trend for 2015 and we think it’s a hue that’s here to stay. A Halloween display doesn’t have to be all cobwebs and Beetlejuice to make an impact. We’ve opted for a simple, bold and dare we say it, quite grownup, take on Halloween that you can adapt to any interior. Here’s a peek at how we did it and tips that you can use to get the look at home.Read moreStyling Tips

Jess ContomichalosHow to Decorate and Furnish with Grey
Grey has made a big design impact in recent years, far from being considered boring and drab, the colour grey now draws gasps of appreciation when used in interior design.

As we like to be on trend at Danetti, we have introduced a collection of grey products to compliment your home. So whilst you may not want to completely grey wash your home, you may wish to accessorise it and add subtle grey elements or perhaps you are already living with grey and want to enhance and add to the scheme.Read moreBuying Guides

Sarah InwoodOur Top 5 Coloured Plastic Dining Chairs
Coloured dining chairs are a great way to add vibrancy to your dining area. January is so grey, we all need a bit of bright in our lives, to see us through to the BBQ season. There so much scope to play with colour, Multicoloured dining chairs are definitely not just for the super modern minimalists. Coloured dining chairs can be used as just two accent chairs in a mix of greys or a full on statement of 6 bright chairs in just one shade. You can pick a tone from a rug, or a picture, or even just the hue of your favourite flower. Recently on a shoot we styled all yellow Eames Style Dining Chair to tie in with an abundant vase of Mimosa.

Sarah InwoodOur Picks of Mid Century Modern Contemporary Furniture
It’s fair to say that the Mid Century trend is here to stay. We all love the drama of ‘Madmen’ and that romantic hark back to the glamour of the 50s and 60s. With the fashionable silhouettes and colours in the high street and that unmistakable interior feel, we’re seeing it’s influence all over the pages of those in vogue. Whether the reality of the time was really that way, or it’s our modern interpretation that actually adds the charm, I find myself wondering; why do we covet the looks that our grandparents and parents would discard and how can we achieve something that is modern whilst picking up on the seemingly timeless appeal of the period?Read moreBuying Guides

DanettiTricks of Interior Design
We want to let you into a little secret… If you are giving your living or family room a makeover, here’s one of the simple tricks that Interior Designers use to ‘pull together’ a living room scheme. To create an effortlessly co-ordinated and stylish look they suggest having occasional Console, Side, End and Coffee Tables which match or blend with each other. They don’t need to be exactly the same style but perhaps they all have something in common, for instance the same clear glass tops, or funky chrome legs. Then as a finishing touch, accessorise each table in a similar way, with matching photo frames, table lamps or similar ornaments to give a totally co-ordinated, sophisticated style. Here are some of our Console and Side Tables which have matching Coffee Tables to help you create a stylish and modern interior design effortlessly.Read moreInterior Focus
