Call of the Wild: Leopard Print

Some of you may have read my post from a while back about zebra print ottomans and how much I love them.  I also love leopard.  I think the concensus out there is that a little is great, but that it also goes a long way.  I couldn't agree more; I think it's really fun and fresh, but has to be within reason!  Here are just a few examples of where I think leopard can work really well...

I love the idea of using old chairs with a modern print like this one to make it fresh and new again.  I like it as a one off as in this case but would also like it in a dining room, either at the heads of the table or all the way around!

I love this overall look as a way to cozy up a room for Fall.


It's also fun on a bed, especially with the chocolate brown walls for more sophistication.
