White and the natural colour of rattan go together so well and especially for a summer look in an interior. I spotted these images in Canadian House and Home (June ''10 issue) over the weekend and have bookmarked the idea as inspiration. Rattan is also really affordable and I like what owner/stylist, Jenn Cranston did putting this place (her summer home) together (lots of clever ideas). From the bamboo Ikea screen as a headboard for the master bed to the painted wood stumps for outdoor tables. Photo credit: Angus Fergusson
