A Little Colorful Chaos: {Lately Loving} African Juju Hats

TGIF. Seriously. I'm starting to recover from the trauma of deleting my photos (catch up here) & just looking forward to the weekend. It's been a while since I've done a Lately Loving & I'm excited to bring it back, even though these African Juju hats are nothing new in the design world. They've been around for years & I've seen them in countless homes. But something about them lately has me really intrigued. Perhaps it's because they could solve a big design dilemma I have in my own home. Since J & I moved in together 6 years ago, he's been on my case about hanging artwork over the bed. To be fair, we live in a state where there are earthquakes, so having giant framed pieces of art is probably not the smartest thing to sleep under. I thought I found the perfect solution & was so excited, until I showed them to J & he hated them 😂.

Hopefully I'll bring them into our home once we move because I love how they bring texture & depth to any space. A grouping of hats in my future office perhaps? In the meantime, I want to share some inspiration photos as well as some that are currently for sale that I am seriously crushing on. They can get pretty expensive, but I've managed to find a few that won't completely break your wallets. I've also stumbled upon a few DIY's. Might have to give them a try! J can't refuse to hang art I create, right??
