How to Style Animal, Cocktail, and Food Art Prints for Every Room in the House
Art is a powerful way to infuse personality, colour, and life into any space. That is why I believe art should be as joyful and unique as you are! That's exactly what I had in mind when creating my collections of animal, cocktail, and food-themed art prints. Each have been designed to bring that colourful energy to every room in your home. Here’s a guide on how to style these prints, making your walls as bold and vibrant as your personality!
1. Kitchen: Food-Inspired Prints to Fuel Your Inner Chef
The kitchen is the heart of the home, and food art prints fit perfectly here! Choose prints that feature colourful foods and drinks—think cocktail recipes or fresh produce that you love. Consider grouping a set of small prints, like one of a fiery chilli , a quirky cheese print, or a refreshing cocktail. Hanging these near a breakfast nook or coffee station can create an inviting, cheerful spot where everyone gathers.
**Styling Tip:** Use natural wooden frames for a rustic kitchen feel or bold, colourful frames to match the bright prints and add an extra pop of personality. A thick black frame always works wonders for sophistication.
2. Dining Room: Set the Mood with Cocktail Art Prints
In the dining room, cocktail prints make a fabulous statement, lending a touch of sophistication and playfulness. Go for prints of classic cocktails like the Aperol Spritz, Spicy Margarita, or Espresso Martini to spark conversation and complement your dining decor. A gallery wall of cocktail prints can add a classy yet relaxed vibe, making it a perfect backdrop for entertaining guests.
**Styling Tip:** Choose metallic frames for cocktail prints to create an upscale vibe, or mix frames for an eclectic look that feels collected and casual.
3. Living Room: Add Playfulness with Animal Art Prints
Your living room is where you can truly express your unique style. Animal prints bring joy, and character, making them a great choice for this central gathering space. From majestic dogs to adorable, quirky insects, pick prints that match your energy. A large statement animal print above the sofa can become a center piece, while a set of smaller prints arranged gallery-style makes for a fun, lively display.
**Styling Tip:** Try mixing animal prints with a few abstract or landscape pieces for a dynamic gallery wall, and use complementary colours to tie it all together.
4. Bedroom: Create a Calm Sanctuary with Your Favourite Themes
In your bedroom, where peace and relaxation are essential, art should reflect the calm energy you want to bring into your space. Choosing prints with personal meaning, like tarot or star sign art, can create a serene sanctuary that feels connected to your inner world. A calming print of The Star or The Empress tarot card, for example, can inspire a sense of hope, abundance, or inner harmony, perfect for setting a restful mood. Star sign prints add a touch of celestial beauty and can feel like a comforting reminder of your unique qualities. Hang these prints above your bed or on a dedicated gallery wall for a soothing, personalised space that helps you unwind and feel at home.
**Styling Tip:** Hang two or three prints side-by-side above the bed or create a mini gallery on a wall. You can also try unframed prints for a more relaxed, bohemian vibe.
5. Bathroom: Make a Splash with Playful Prints
The bathroom is an underrated spot for art, but a well-chosen print here can make a surprising impact. Typography art with bright colours can add vibrancy, while smaller animal or lifestyle prints bring charm to the space. Keep your bathroom decor light and fun; a small food or drink print by the sink or next to a mirror can bring a smile to your face every morning.
**Styling Tip:** Use frames that are moisture-resistant, like metal or acrylic, to protect your prints from humidity, and opt for smaller sizes to fit comfortably in tight spaces.
6. Home Office: Inspire Creativity with Bold Prints
Your home office should be a place that sparks creativity and keeps you motivated, and adding bold, inspiring art can make all the difference. Typography prints with empowering words or phrases can give you an instant boost, setting the tone for productivity and positivity. For a touch of mystical energy, consider adding tarot prints like The Magician or The Fool—both of which embody creativity, new ideas, and the courage to pursue fresh opportunities. Animal prints can bring a playful, energetic vibe to your space, whether it’s a bold leopard to inspire confidence or a curious fox for a dose of cleverness. Mix and match these styles for a gallery wall that’s full of personality, ensuring your workspace feels as motivating and unique as you are.
**Styling Tip:** Lean prints on floating shelves for an adjustable display, or prop one or two on your desk for a fun, low-maintenance decor option.
