While Scott Lifshutz’s custom portraits can command five figures, his new home accessories collection for West Elm can be had for less than $30.
Interior Design Hounds will love the watercolor Hound Pillow. The Bloodhound silhouette, created exclusively for West Elm, was printed on 100% cotton.
Just as in the original watercolor, you can see the nuances in color on the Dog pillow cover.

The only thing missing from the Scott Lifshutz Dog collection?
A Scottie Dog.

The second thing missing is a Yorkie!
Hi Laura!
I agree. Pugs, Yorkies, Frenchies, Westies, Dachshunds and Scottie Dogs always sell well…maybe they’ll add a few more designs.
Designing with Canine accents may not be for everyone, however with the right color pallet and well placed accents this could liven up a room using a very unique and personal touch.
When listing and showing Baltimore real estate, I personally feel less is more. The key to successfully using Canine accents it to have them blend into you design landscape and try not to pepper the entire room with images that look out of place.
Taste level is everything, but if a house is not on the market, I believe the home owner should decorate to please themselves and their lifestyle. Thanks for reading!
