The June Edit: Colorful, Eclectic Design
As summer settles in and the days stretch longer, we’re feeling drawn to spaces that reflect the energy of the season - bold, playful and full of personality. This month’s edit is a love letter to colorful, eclectic decor: that sweet spot where expressive meets effortless and the unexpected feels just right.
What defines this style is the way color, pattern and texture come together in a playful balance. Bold prints mix with softer textiles, pops of color bring out the best in neutrals and layered textures add depth without feeling heavy. It’s a look that feels spontaneous but thoughtful, as if everything found its place naturally over time. The result is a space that’s warm, layered and vibrantly charming.
Here’s what makes this look so special, and the pieces we’re loving to bring it to life.
Taper Candles
Color That Speaks for Itself
In colorful, eclectic interiors, there’s no need to hold back. This is where bold elements shine - not because they work perfectly together, but because they bring joy. Color is used with purpose: to energize a room, draw the eye, or simply make you smile.
If you’re not ready to go all in on paint, don’t worry. Small touches go a long way. Our colored taper candlesticks are one of our favorite ways to incorporate a splash of color. They’re sculptural, saturated and effortlessly stylish. Try them clustered in mixed tones on a mantel or scattered along a dining table for instant charm.
Don’t limit color pops to just one area - try interspersing them throughout your space to create visual connections that tie together more diverse elements.
Turkish Rug
Pattern Play (Without The Pressure)
The key to eclectic style is letting go of the need for everything to match. This look is built on contrast - stripes with florals, checkers with animal print, smooth next to texture. The goal is balance, not uniformity.
Start with a foundational pattern, like one of our richly textured Turkish rugs. These handmade pieces provide the perfect backdrop for mixing different furniture styles, with their unique patterns and array of colors creating visual depth. Then, add in a playful accent, like our checkered planter. Picture it sitting on a dresser with a Turkish rug underneath, or perched on a bedroom windowsill where morning light catches both the rug’s rich patterns and the planter’s bold geometry.
If you’re unsure where to begin, remember this: variation in scale is your best friend. Mix large prints with small ones, bold shapes with subtle textures. That tension is what gives the space life.
Artwork With Personality
Checkered Planter
The easiest way to give your home a pulse is by filling it with art that makes you feel something. In a colorful, eclectic home, artwork doesn’t have to match your furniture. It just has to reflect your personality.
Let’s be honest - there are so many generic prints out there that look like they were pulled straight from a stock photography site. We’ve brought in a selection of artwork this month that leans into quirky charm - pieces that don’t take themselves too seriously. They’re the kind of pieces you hang on a whim and grow to love more each day. Try layering them in a gallery wall with vintage finds or letting one piece stand on its own above a nightstand or reading nook.
Pro tip: Don’t worry too much about symmetry. Let your walls evolve over time - that’s part of the magic. Pair different types of art for a more dynamic effect. This mismatched approach means you can display a vintage botanical print next to a more contemporary abstract painting. As long as it feels right to you, they belong together.
Prints & Banana Bowl
Statement Pieces With A Sense of Humor
Even in a room full of color and pattern, a single standout piece can steal the show. It’s no surprise that we love statement objects that are equal parts functional and fun. Enter: banana bowl. Yes, it’s covered in bananas. No, it’s not serious. That’s the point.
It’s bold, it’s a little cheeky and it’s the kind of item that instantly adds personality. Style it on your kitchen counter with fresh citrus (or bananas!), or let it live on your dining table just doing its thing. Unexpected pieces like this give a room interest.
Look for other charming objects that serve double duty: a mushroom candle holder that’s both a whimsical sculpture and functional lighting, or a scalloped tray on your coffee table that corrals remotes while adding soft curves and a happy dose of color. These unique bits and bobs immediately signal that your home doesn’t take itself too seriously while still being thoughtfully curated.

Design That Doesn’t Follow the Rules
The beauty of eclectic design is that there’s no single formula. It’s a mix of eras, colors, textures and stories. It’s about creating a home that feels gathered over time, not bought all at once. It’s a personal space where your favorite pieces, old and new, coexist in a way that is uniquely yours.
The magic of this decorating happens when all of these elements work together. A Turkish rug provides the foundation, your statement pieces add personality, your bold art creates focal points and your colorful candles tie everything together.
Whether you’re just dipping your toes in or you’re ready to go all-in, let this be your sign to get playful. Bring in a bold rug. Light a neon candle. Hang that weird little art print that makes you laugh. This is the season to embrace color, try new pairings and let your spaces reflect your mood.
