Kathysue is making plans again!!
Time to give my family room it's summer look.
The quickest change out in a room are the accessories. I am starting with adding some new pillows in ocean inspired colors………
These are some of the options I am looking at. I still need to receive a few more samples to make a final decision.
It helps me to do a collage of the patterns in the room. I do my collages on picmonkey, fast,free and easy!
First I add the patterns that will be staying in the room.
My sofa fabric…
My area rug…..
Here are few collages I put together with the sofa fabric, and the rug…….
ONE
In this combination the Ikat will go in my two white slipcovered chairs
by the fireplace. The floral and the Ikat-dot will go on the sofa.
TWO
This
combination is a bit more subtle in color than the first one. The first
Ikat pattern would go in the white chairs and the other two patterns on
the ticking sofa.
THREE
The first fabric would be in the white chairs, and the other two on the ticking sofa.
All
of these work in theory, and look great on my monitor, but until I
actually have the fabrics in the room I will not be able to tell if they
will marry well to each other, or not.
Always
work with your fabrics on-site before making any final decisions. The
lighting, the surrounding wall color, and other elements in the room may
or may not marry well to the fabrics.
Which combination do you like, or NOT, and why??
