Kacey Musgraves's traditonal coffee table decor is the perfect finishing touch to her color-drenched sitting corner – it's just the right amount of whimsy
Grammy Award winner Musgraves curated a monochromatic pink sitting room – finished with an easily replicable flower trick


Kacey Musgraves will return to her serene Nashville home with a new addition, a Grammy. Musgraves's 'The Architect' won Best Country Song at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards – giving us a prime opportunity to revisit one of the most beautiful celebrity homes in Tennessee.
Musgraves's home upholds a primarily neutral palette and is famous for its monochromatic cream living space, dining room, and kitchen. Her Salmon Pink sitting area, however, feels different.
While this pink room is more colorful than the rest of her house, it feels just as peaceful. Musgraves has color-drenched the space in a soft pink paint, while the soft furnishings follow the same palette. Musgraves, who worked with designer Lindsay Rhodes and stylist Mary Spotswood, then finished the space with fresh flowers – the most traditional coffee table accessory of all.

Stylist Mary Spotswood decodes Musgraves's 'sculpted mound of pink peonies,' adding that there are other pink and neutral tones in her arrangement. 'Pon Pon ranunculus and scabiosa float above a large footed glass bowl in [Kacey Musgrave's] monochromatic living room. If you look closely, you can spot the cool factor, an electric blue Betta fish Kacey and [Kelly Russell Jarrell] added,' she says.
While it's sadly not quite peony season just yet, we can still draw inspiration from Musgraves's arrangement and introduce flowers that complement the hues seen around our room.
In keeping with her monochromatic color scheme, Musgraves styled her coffee table with pink and cream flowers – but, for a similar effect, you should choose colors that best match those in your home. If you have an all-white or cream living room, for example, white roses and cosmos would be a beautiful alternative. Meanwhile, chrysanthemums are perfect for a green color scheme.
When it comes to coffee table styling, Hilary Green, the head designer at Dartington Crystal, also has some tips for choosing the right vase.

'If your display is below eye level, such as on a coffee or console table, take extra care arranging the stems, as they’ll need to look good from above. If you’re arranging flowers for a tablescape, opt for shorter stems that won’t disrupt your view or distract you when chatting across the table. Once you’ve determined where you want to position your arrangement, you can consider the size and style of your display,' Green says.
'For large, statement arrangements, opt for a vase just under half the height of the tallest stems in your bouquet. Alternatively, to create a more subtle, short-stemmed display, opt for a vase [that's] one and a half times the height of your tallest stems. This general rule ensures your arrangements are well-proportioned and balanced, allowing the blooms and the vase to look cohesive and intentional when paired together.'

Inspired by Murano glass, this glass vase is blown by hand for an ombre effect that transitions from clear to earthy brown. We love how each one is unique due to its natural variations for added character.

This large vase is a simple and elegant way to integrate glass into your entryway. Add a single branch for an elevated, modern feel.
Lastly, when color-drenching, opting for a tinted vase can offer another beautiful twist. 'They provide an extra layer of interest to your floral displays and can either complement your flowers or create an eye-catching contrast,' Green adds. 'Meanwhile, clear glass is a classic, traditional option, but can also offer contemporary appeal, especially if the vase features textured elements, such as an optic effect or etched design.'
