Mystic Victorian

Now that I have a plan for my kitchen and dining area, I wanted to also create an inspiration board for my office/sitting area. I love Victorian-style decor, and wanted to incorporate that feel into my room. I therefore decided to use very antique colors, focusing on champagne and sage green, but using dusty rose and deep purple as accent colors.

I want the feel of the room to be Victorian, but more of a modern feel rather than the uptight, proper feel of traditional Victorian rooms. To do this, I will to use a lot of solid colors, not print. However, I do want to use some typical Victorian materials such as silk, glass, wrought iron, pearls, and gold accents. But, I want to also give the room a mystical, "Enchanted Garden" feel so I plan to use lots of candles and flowers!
