The Monday Mix: Fashion and Decor

Today's Monday Mix: Hats and Decor
Of all of the Monday Mixes that I've done, Hats and Decor was the easiest to find images for. Designers and design enthusiast alike are using hats displayed on walls, piled on tables, singularly as focal points and even as light fixtures to compliment the decor of their interiors.

This space is my favorite. I just love the smokey charcoal color on the walls, the organic shaped bowls and the neutral tones of the hat pile.  Such a pretty vignette!

A column of hats- what a clever display!

This is obviously staged but I do like the idea of converting a top hat into a pendant light. It could be pretty fun in the right place ...like the Mr.'s closet!

You have to store them somewhere- why not make them part of the decorating scheme!

Must be a pretty special hat! ;)

    I have seen hats as decor but haven't really give it much thought! This post is very inspiring! Love the different styling of hats.

    By the way, I am hosting an exciting giveaway and the lucky winner will get to receive a $75 gift card from Arcadian Lighting. Don't miss it. :)

    This was so great!! The beach house I am staying in has a small wall filled with all kinds of hats, and its so beautiful and whimsical, way better than just hanging a piece of art. Love hats...and the pictures are beautiful!

    This is such a cute post. I don't have many hats at all, and none in my decor. We are wall space challenged around here!!!

    I am a huge, huge fan of hats in decor and have posted that picture of the vertically placed hats over and over again because I can't get enough of it. But do I have that display in my own house? No. I've been keeping my eye out for used straw hats for exactly this reason. Gorgeous post -- some of these, I've never seen before.

    You've got me thinking of ways to use my husband's cowboy hat (that he never wears and is stuffed somewhere in a closet...)

    So many fun and creative ways to display hats :-) I love the second picture with the charcoal walls too, and the column of hats is pretty cool :-)
