This weekend's Get the Look: Decor is inspired by the colorful art and vintage filled Dutch flat of Nina Van de Goor. She runs Ninainvorm, an amazing design blog focused on ceramics, artwork and home decor. She also has a very successful Etsy shop where she sells colorful screenprinted ceramics, screenprints and collages.
Nina's home features a base of white walls with bright pops of color in the artwork, fabrics and the many vintage objects and ceramics. Nina says, "I adore colorful vintage wallpapers and fabrics, and though I'm aware of the 'less is more'-thought, I always have so many decorating ideas that it's hard to find an empty wall or corner in my home."
Visit Etsy's There's No Place Like Here flickr pool to view more photos of Nina's colorful home, and check out the Etsy Finds below for some creative decorating ideas on how you can add some cheerful pops of color to your own space.
