Decorating your orangery in a rustic style is a stunning way to bring an element of the natural world indoors. Here are 4 tips to transform your orangery into a cosy haven.
1. Think Wicker
Incorporating woven fabric and textures such as wicker into your orangery makes for a very cosy and bohemian aesthetic. Wicker furniture, particularly armchairs and sofas, present a stylish, understated way to add a touch of sophistication to any space. What’s more, when finished in a natural wood or white shade, wicker furniture truly encapsulates that rustic vibe. Drape textured throws or decorative cushions over the top to complete the look.
2. Bring Plants Into Your Orangery
Nothing says rustic quite like leafy plants and shrubs. So, if you want your orangery to have that charming, natural aesthetic, don’t skip this step. Citrus fruits, such as lemons and oranges can thrive in an indoor environment. However, if you struggle to look after plants, it might be better to find a less needy alternative! Cheese plants and ferns are both stunning, low-maintenance options.
3. Hang A Mirror
Hanging a mirror in your orangery can bring a touch of luxury whilst also giving the illusion of a larger space. Moreover, opting for a mirror with an intricate, ornamental frame can also bring a unique and homely vibe. If you have an old mirror which is unused or in storage, consider giving it a new lease of life by hanging it in your orangery. Even if it’s a bit shabby or worn, you may find it enhances the area and the rustic aesthetic you are trying to create.
4. Keep Your Orangery Light & Airy
To really capture that warm, rustic vibe, consider prioritising a light and open space in your orangery. Additionally, try to avoid going overboard with dark colours, as this can make the space feel cold and closed off. Instead, we recommend choosing light, earthy shades to keep the room bright and welcoming. If you tend to gravitate towards darker colours, consider using them for accent pieces rather than large areas.
