P+P's Inspired Interiors: Lucite Lover

Acrylic...Plexiglass...Plastic?  So many "names" for one of my favorite things.  I like to refer to the beautiful substance as Lucite, but you can call it whatever you'd like!  Lucite is a high grade form of acrylic plastic and I just love to see it in interiors.  I got my first Lucite piece, a Louis Ghost chair, a few years ago and I love him now more than ever.  David thinks he's weird and really "modern", which might be why I like him so much!  I think it's exciting to mix different styles throughout a house, the unexpected beauty brings me so much joy!  The little Ghost chair moves around quite a bit throughout our home (usually he is my office chair) but right now I have him hanging out in my living room.    

Isn't he cute??  He came from Amazon  which has the best prices BY FAR!!!  It's not unusual for Ghost chairs to go for $500 and up!  In fact I haven't seen prices that low ever!  

I paid $300 for my man so now I am contemplating getting a whole set for my dining room at those prices!!! 

Good thing my birthday and Christmas are right around the corner!  

Or maybe a "push" present?! David are you reading this? :)

Enough about my little guy, here are some of my favorite lucite looks from around the web. 

Mom just bought a console table from CB2 that looks exactly like this one.  

She is going to use it as a vanity in the Grandkids' bunk bed room at her house!  

Can't wait to show you pics once she gets it all styled and pretty! 

Love this look so much!!! Lucite + Wood = PERFECTION

One thing that I'm most drawn to when using lucite in an interior is including natural elements in the same vignette.  Notice how all these pics either have fresh flowers, plants, or even animals of some sort (cowhide rug, deer mount, coral lamp etc).  

Pairing the manufactured look of plastic with mother nature turns out to be a real winner in my book! 

What do you think?
