“Antiques in seaside hues evoke treasures washed ashore. ‘If there's [sic] two things I'm as equally obsessed with as white, it's antique Japanese glass fishing floats and beautiful old books, so naturally I had to style a shoot using all three!’ says [designed Jillian] Harris. Weathered tomes and antique buoys give a sense of history and add depth to a white space.”

“Cool blue accents and feminine flourishes. This luxe quilted headboard is unexpected in a sapphire blue. ‘Talk about color heaven!’ says [designer Jillian] Harris. ‘It's balanced by a creamy mint wall color, and I love the caged crystal chandelier!’ "

“Patterned wallpaper creates the backdrop for a traditional vignette. A blue-and-white Chinoiserie print sets the tone for this dining room's eclectic design. An antique sideboard anchors the grouping while a Chippendale mirror adds glamour. Two Chinese cracklelamps create symmetry and offera cozier alternate source of lighting.

"Re-energize a hallway or room by hanging striped wallpaper horizontally in the space below the chair rail, a trick that helps make narrow rooms feel wider. To ensure an even look, position the paper so the lowest and highest stripes are the same color; install the painted chair rail after the wallpaper has been hung. Then, match the wall's paint color to the stripe.'

"Ombre Easter eggs: You can create this dramatic display with just two 0.25-ounce vials of blue dye you may already have in the kitchen. Set out six 12-ounce glasses, labeled A through F. Add one cup of boiling water and two teaspoons of white vinegar to each and stir, using a separate spoon for each glass. Then, mix in the color as follows: A, two drops; B, six drops; C, 10 drops; D, 20 drops; E, 45 drops; F, 60 drops. Submerge a hard-boiled egg in each glass. Steep for five minutes, or until you're happy with the hue, then remove and place in an empty egg carton to dry. Repeat with additional eggs (up to three dozen)."
