Red & Zebra Decorating

Paint the room walls a cherry red color to provide a backdrop for zebra print decor. Choose a deeper red color, such as pomegranate or burgundy, if you prefer a darker look.

Choose black furniture that complements the red and zebra print decor scheme. Pick black wrought iron pieces, such as a bed headboard and nightstand set, or a coffee table and side table set, for a rustic look. Decorate with black wood furniture items, such as a dresser and desk set, as an elegant touch.

Decorate with red and zebra-patterned textiles. Place a large, zebra print rug in the center of a bedroom or living room floor as the space's focal point. Enhance a white comforter or couch with a mix of red and zebra-patterned pillows. Fold a red or zebra print throw blanket at the end of the bed or over the back of the couch.

Balance the animal print details with matching solid-color decor pieces. Fill silver candle holders with red votives and display them on a coffee table, nightstand or wall shelf. Give the space a fresh touch with a white or black vase filled with red roses. Hang black or white sconces against a red wall above a bed or couch.
