Fact: Designer Leanne Ford could teach all of us a thing or two about creating a lively living room for spring. Instead of using interior elements to gussy-up a garden, Ford brings outdoor furniture, potted posies and natural texture inside to create this unique, cottage-style look. Ford anchors the bright white space with an antique apothecary cabinet, topped with a crown of lush blooms in rustic, terra cotta planters. Fun front porch furniture spills into the space with a garden swivel chair and simple wood bench, both white-washed to mimic the crisp walls. Textural throw pillows add effortless style and instant coziness to the cream sofa. Our tip to really recreate this indoor-garden aesthetic? Snag a handsome, wooden bird to stand watch over your potted plants for a fashionable and feathery finishing touch. Find our picks for your home, in the links below.
