I am at it again!! It is that time of year for me to look at how I can brighten up my great room for Spring. Fabric samples have arrived and I am definitely going to be making some final decisions soon.
Of course sometimes there are snags in our plans and there was in mine when I found out the fabric I wanted to combine all the colors is no longer available ANYWHERE!! Sigh, ugh. Now onto plan B!
Here are some of the samples I am looking at getting, excluding the upper left from Studio McGee, "no longer available!"
In the past I have tried to add pink but it just was not working for me. I found that I need a brighter pink in my room for it to look like ME!! It's important to always stay true yourself when decorating your home.
I actually have two of these fabrics in other colors ways so I know I love the patterns.
Here are last years Spring pillows, the blue Chinoiserie pattern and the green feather looking pattern are the same patterns I have for my new selections but only in pink.
My next step is to find the right combinations to put in my great room. Yes, I take lots of time to plan it all out, but that is what designing is, making a workable plan for the homeowners home/room and making it come to fruition. Without planning expensive mistakes can happen. Why settle on something just because you can get it NOW. Take your time and.......
Oh Kathysue...your vision always leads you to a beautiful outcome....looking forward to what you will be creating! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeletePink is SO speaking to me...what is it...cherry blossoms, Easter bunny noses...who knows...franki
ReplyDeleteHi Kathysue,
ReplyDeleteI thought long & hard about sewing up some pink pillows for Spring/Summer. In the end I’ve come to realize I sew new pillows every year. I’m tired of it. And I need a year off. So I’m bringing out last years pillows & they’re good enough.
Now I have to to do things I enjoy.
I’m going to live vicariously through you. 😘
