X Frame

by Laura Casey Interiors on August 16, 2011

I really love the lines and shapes X framed furniture adds to a room. Here are some great examples of X frames sneaking into a room and adding a quiet elegance that often goes unnoticed. Two simple blue stools create a bench at the bottom of this bed.

A whole bench adds a slightly different look to the foot of this bed.

Leather Barcelona stools (and the perfect cozy spot for a Spaniel!)

I love this pretty wooden console.

A very small X framed tray makes it into this vintage vignette

Do you like them as much as I do?

I love these – especially on small ottomans like you show here, console tables and desks!!

Yes, I love them. I never would have imagined they would add so much interest!

Beautiful and such a statement. I just purchased this butler’s tray and stand from West Elm. It has such a presence due to the X and it’s height.

Fun post, it was a bit of a where’s Waldo post:) The X frame really does add something to each space. I don’t have any X’s in my house may have to change that:)

I’m eyeballing that beautiful monogram on the blanket at the end of the bed on photo #2. Oh, and yes…the x’s are lovely, too! YOu have such fine taste, Laura!

It was a bit like Where is Waldo like Carrie mentioned. Very fun post. I have X chairs, love them to pieces.
