5 Ways to Style Antique Delft Tiles Now
I’ve always found traditional 17th century blue-and-white Dutch Delft tiles charming, though sometimes overwhelming. So, here are a few ways to incorporate a touch of blue into your home now, without it taking over!
1. Laundry room or Bathroom Detail
A quirky detail to inspire your day dreams as you wash your hands or fold laundry. Space out your Delft details with blank white handcrafted tiles to match.
2. Bar Area
Define your home bar with a lovely selection of Delft tiles to be seen behind your shelves.
3. Shower Nook
A surprising pop of colour and details to bring added personality to a sometimes quite boring space.
4. Kitchen Backsplash
Your Deflt tiles will be on show in this high-traffic area of your home. Dream of dragons or tulips as you prepare your dinners.
5. Around the fireplace
A traditional and still charming way to incorporate a few special Delft scenes and characters into your living space.
Don’t be afraid to be quirky with your selection of Delft tiles - there are so many charming and quirky versions, featuring (apart from flowers) ducks, boats, people and even dragons!
