Bamboo Framed Paintings

Thailand

A few months ago, we traveled through Thailand and came upon an incredibly beautiful village that makes unique paintings by hand. We were so taken with them that we decided to include them in our painting selection. All of the paintings are strung on a bamboo frame for a truly exotic look. There is no need to bother with expensive framing, as these paintings are ready to be placed right onto any wall. For just a fraction the price of most frames alone, you can buy a hand-painted scene complete with frame! Many of the designs on our bamboo frame paintings were inspired by some of our best selling products, including umbrellas, wall fans and Oriental paintings. We also have a limited stock of these paintings and once a design sells out, it won’t be seen again until 2008. Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to pick up an authentic framed painting at a bargain price.

Asian Home Decorating Tips

For centuries, Asian cultures have lived surrounded by simple yet elegant art, furniture and furnishings. Asian interiors are designed to add peace, balance and serenity to any home or office. The point is to keep the space simple and uncluttered. This not only makes a room or space look bigger than it is, it is good Fung Shui, adding energy and prosperity to its occupants. These 5 quick decorating tips will start you on your way to a more relaxed and enjoyable Asian style decoration.

• Use dramatic color. One of the most striking characteristics of Oriental decor is the use of bold colors. For interiors, bold red is a dominant and lucky color often seen in wall art, rugs and other decorative items. Most furniture is shiny black or brown and lacquered wood.
• Go green. A popular feature of Asian decor is its gardens, often seen in Japanese homes. Indeed, nature plays an important part in Asian style homes. It not only adds a peaceful and natural look, but plants, trees and flowers are good for our health. Try adding a plant or bonsai tree to any indoor setting. This will provide artistic expression and provide a needed contrast from all the plastic and man-made objects in today’s homes.
• Use Oriental or bamboo rugs to create an awesome Asian decorative effect in any room. Hardwood floors can look great, but floor covering is the foundation for all Asian interiors. The right bamboo rug can transform any decorative setting into an Asian inspired interior.
• With space at a premium in most Asian interiors, shoji screens or room dividers are an ideal way to create the effect of more space. Shoji screens also add outstanding looking Asian decor to any setting and can hide an unattractive corner or space.
• Nature adds an important element to all Asian influenced settings, as we saw with plants and bonsai trees. The delicate sound of falling water and its refreshing fragrance are an attractive and inexpensive way to create an excellent Asian decorative expression. Indoor water fountains are probably the quickest and most convenient way to take advantage of this timeless decorative effect.
