What do you think, would you use unexpected objects for Art in your home?

Umbrella Art courtesy of Target
As the Mr. will tell you there are times my Home Mags pile up in the corner just begging to be read. When I do have time to read them I often rush through just glancing at the photos for client inspiration. Lucky for me last week I took an afternoon grabbed my ice tea and headed outside to go through my stack and boy am I glad I did! This room from designer Barbara Franceski had an unexpected element, "Umbrella Art"! She wanted to make what is usually a walk through room a show stopper and was determined to think outside the box. Thankfully a rainy day and a drying umbrella was right there for inspiration! She took her two Target (yes Target!!!) umbrellas, dismantled them, fastened the tops to the wall and tada she had a great piece of art with fabulous pattern and color! The added nailheads and fabric wallpaper just accentuate the color! Fun right?

I love the thought of the unexpected in my home thats a definite yes for me!!
Love that! And completely agree with Myrna, unexpected pieces are so fun!
I am glad I took the time to read the article because at first glance I thought it was a flat piece of artwork! Thanks for the comments ladies!
Very nice I really like the texture and matte finishing in some pieces of this room.
