1.Ceramic Lamps

Nancy loves decorating with natural materials. Ceramics are one of the many materials Nancy incorporates in her movie sets and at home.
Lighting really makes a difference. Pair your ceramic lamps with warm lightbulbs and turn the main lights off.
2.Frills

From Pillows to slipcovers Nancy loves to incorporate frills around the home.
Frills bring a soft, feminine element to the room, an almost cottage feel.
Our favorite item of decor for frills are pillows and cushions. You can play around with patterns and prints, and have as many as you want on your beds and sofas.
3.Antique Vases & Pots

Clay, terracotta and stone vases and pots, Nancy loves placing them around the house.
Place some greenery in an antique pot or vase and display them on your tables, kitchen islands and gardens.
4.Crockery Cabinet

What’s a Nancy Meyer home without a crockery cabinet, Nancy loves displaying all kinds of plates, dishes and other serving or eating tableware.
You can recreate this with a secondhand cabinet and all your favorite tableware. And if you’re wanting to add to your collection you can easily thrift and find some amazing stuff at flea markets or thrift shops.
5.Candlesticks

Nancy Meyers has a timeless classic style mixed with coastal and vintage elements. Brass, copper and aluminum are just some of the materials you’ll find in a Nancy Meyers inspired home.
Items such as these brass candlesticks are elegant, vintage and seem to never go out of style. Little details around the home in such materials go a long way.
6.Coastal Stripes

Stripes are a great accent pattern to add to your house, and are found a lot throughout Nancy’s movies.
Blue is one of the most popular colors Nancy likes to use. We believe it’s because of the coastal elements Nancy likes to incorporate into her style. And for some reason blue and stripes give out beach vibes.
7.Vintage Frames

Nancy likes to combine modern and antique decor to create a layered look.
We recommend thrifting an oil painting and displaying it in a gold vintage frame.
Don’t forget to place the frame on top of a stack of books, this gives depth and volume to the small frame.
8.Rattan Baskets

Why not use your storage as decor. In the Nancy Meyers way use a natural material such as rattan.
Place your rattan baskets in the living room to store all your throws, or place them at the end of your bed for all those pillows.
They look amazing and store away any extra bits.
9.Rugs

A simple look vs the printed look
We recommend a Jute rug for a more simple, natural feel. They look great in any room and they contrast beautifully against furniture.
And if you prefer a more colorful and textured style then we recommend a floral rug.

10.Wooden utensils

Wood is a natural element that is perfect for the kitchen. Not only are they the perfect material to cook with but also look great styled in a beautiful ceramic pot.
11.Rattan Furniture & Accessories

Whether it’s chairs, baskets or a nightstand have a few pieces of rattan furniture/furnishings throughout your home.
We love how pure and minimal this dining table and chair set are. It’s modern with a classic twist.
12.Casserole Dishes

Don’t just put your dishes away.
Display them, you can use them as decor for your kitchen and display them alongside all your favorite tableware and glassware.
13.Above Window drapes

Hang your drapes halfway between the windows and ceiling like Nancy does.This will give the illusion that the room and windows are larger.
Keeping your drapes a neutral tone allows the illusion that your space is a lot more open and free.
14.Marble bowl

Marble is one of the many natural materials you see in Nancy’s movies. If you want to incorporate marble into your own home without the big price tag, then start small.
Such as this marble bowl from Crate & Barrel. We love how they have styled their marble bowl with lemons under a stack of books.
15.Brass Salt & Pepper Mill

As we’ve mentioned before Nancy loves to use everyday items as decor.
Brass is timeless and gives the room a vintage feel, don’t be afraid to mix classic, timeless items with your modern decor as Nancy does.
16.Terracotta

Keep things natural as Nancy Meyers, incorporate some Terracotta in your home and gardens.
17.Cushions & Pillows
credit @kindredhomestead
Use stripes, florals and all sorts of prints with linen or cotton being the preferred fabric.
Cushions & pillows elevate the room and are the easiest to update and style.
18.Books, Books and More Books
credit @kinneandersen
Display all your favorite books. Have them on tables, kitchen counters and shelves around your home.
Or why not just have one place in your home dedicated to your books. Create a library space or a reading nook.
We love how Kinne has styled her library. She has kept a simple neutral color scheme and allows the books and decor items to contrast beautifully against the white.
It’s an inviting space that makes you want to grab a book, lean against the cabinet and sip some tea.
19.Slipcovers
credit @anabelabernardinorltr
You don’t need to replace your furniture, style your sofas and armchairs with slipcovers.
Linen and cotton fabrics are some of the fabrics you find in any Nancy Meyer room. Keep your slipcover materials natural, for that neutral, soft feel.
And use your pillows as contrast, whether its bold colors, patterns or different textures.
20.Wood chopping blocks
credit @virtualvintageedit
A popular trend recently that everyone seems to love is wooden chopping blocks.
We recommend having 2 or 3 different shaped or colored blocks to contrast and elevate your kitchen.
Add some contrast to the kitchen with chopping blocks that aren’t picture perfect, markings and imperfections bring character.
21.Fruit bowls

Your kitchen won’t have that Nancy Meyers feel until you have a large fruit bowl.
Wood or Ceramic works best for both the kitchen and living room. Don’t be afraid to style your bowl of fruit.
22.Shelving
