Victorian Floral
How I can re-decorate my room?
Right now my room is lime green and pink and quite frankly, is nauseating! I paint my walls a color that is relaxing / soft / uplifting …. I was thinking of yellow, perhaps? What other colors would be appropriate? My bathroom is already a light aqua would not like my room that color. My furniture and wooden floors (dark). What type of quilt would look good? I was thinking a Victorian / inn floral type environment. If you can find links, I'd much appreciation for what you can order it online. Thanks:)
Any color OK, it just depends on the shade. So he could paint whatever, but yellow would be nice. A nice Light Blue, green or lavender would be good too.

New technologies such as artificial light, telephone, iron and glass resulted in many factories, factories, stores or smaller stores. The capitalization of the company, the reclassification and the birth of new social class, known as middle class or bourgeois class (top), increased demand goods and machining of many sectors of industry led to production on a massive scale and relatively cheap. Dynamism of transition was stimulated by the occurrence of some political and cultural events, such as the Universal Exhibition in 1851 which was a manifestation of the industrial revolution of the 19th century England.
events disclosed above and the new way of life, the most rich and fashionable by far the common cultural magazines and newspapers had a huge impact in the area of decoration home. Followed by mass production of interior fabrics, many of them lacked taste, because most factories were owned by traders not the artist.

At a glance Victorian interior was cluttered, decorated heavier, furnished with dark colors. favorite colors were rich and ruby red, forest green, purple, blue and dark gray for the stairs rooms, hallways or lobbies. According to the theory of contemporary colors, colors is used by analogy of the colors on the side by side on the color wheel or color contrast opposites on the color wheel.

The walls were treated as tripartite shrouds field in the middle and the frieze or cornice with wallpaper or fabric used primarily at times. Wallpapers were made with fruits, flowers and geometric motifs, the most known were created by William Morris. This duality instead of Victorian decorative objects has to be mentioned. First, they were once mass machine-made and cheap, often poor quality, and the others were designed and manufactured by the artist identified with art and crafts movements such as William Morris, Philip Webb, Christopher Dresser and Charles Rennie Mackintosh, whose works were examples of handicrafts and, finally, a large Victorian Style is distinguished principal. The ceilings were decorated moldings made of paper mache, designed in the Rococo style displacement or classical garlands, for example. Other materials characteristic of this era were textiles and fabrics, used as window treatments, upholstery, carpets and furniture. It was also richly modeled in a similar way as papers wall.
Most spectacular were the treatments with fantastic windows covered with tassels and trimming of velvet, damask, muslin, cotton or chintz, with clamps. Depending on the location of the apartments were designed with geometry and floral tiles or marble or parquet corridors and covered with Oriental rugs or carpets in the rooms, also finalists in the stairs and narrow passageways were used. The baseboard is about 30 cm thick and 4 inches high. aspects very important Victorian decor, metal work and Stained Glass as a symbol and reflection of the industrial era and new technological achievements. Casted iron was used as bed frames, lamps, the team fireplaces, doorknobs or drawer. Stained-glass windows, for example, was used as windows or glass doors, part of chandeliers, table lamps or simply other decorative objects. Unlike previous eras, Victorian fireplaces had, very often, iron multi-fuel-home or simply been replaced by carved ornate iron stoves.
Feature Victorian Room Furniture in many different materials and style. Some of them were made of mahogany is adorned heavy as in the Renaissance, the other pieces were made of bentwood Thonet chairs such as tissue or light wicker and other flexible materials, including Cast Iron is used for furniture frames and shapes. There were two upholstered seats called "tete-to-face ' plump armchairs with backs balloons, bean bags and ottomans, trimmed with lace, bows, ribbons and embellishments with lots of embroidered pillows. Other elements each space lamps, hanging lamps, tables, floors or cones. Made of iron, copper or bronze screens glass and textiles. In the first place, oil lamps, gas and ultimately coming to power after 1889 when the bulb was invented by Edison. In the United States where the Victorian style was common and most distinguished example of arts of Victorian style Tiffany lamps with stained glass in the patterns of colors. Other groups of objects, which were an indispensable part of every Victorian room were tables, mirrors, ceramics, clocks, dolls, especially porcelain dolls, jewelry, collectibles such as plates, vases and more. The pictures were often painted in oil, represented botanical, children, nature scenes or portraits of ancestors, family photos and antique mirrors were framed with wood, decorated and painted in rich gold. Very popular collections were created directly on the wall, on shelves or in special display cases made of Old Fashion plates, glass or porcelain vases and dolls. Mantles were good place to display knick-knacks different, chandeliers, porcelain animals, dried flowers or mantel clocks that were as popular as free standing or wall grandparents. Different types of tables were countless covers embroidered floor mats. Although Victorian style was not sublime, in most cases dark furniture in space gives the impression of nostalgia and composing, from across this style reflects the freedom and simplicity of people living in the 19th century in England aware of the time in which they lived.
Although it was Victorian ended more than one hundred years, the elements of this style are still existing and eclecticism constantly present in art as a trend.
