Fabric Resources

I often have people ask me where I get most of my fabric...the answer is...everywhere! I have spent countless hours browsing the web in search of new fabrics that I like. Here are a few of my favorites...

         

 These are outdoor fabrics from www.tonicliving.com - a site based in Canada. If you live in the U.S., the shipping can get expensive, but they have great choices!

Next is www.fabric.com - I buy most of my fabric from here because they have by far the best prices and shipping is FREE when your order is over $35. Here is the infamous and beautimous :) Robert Allen Dwell Studio they carry.

Lastly but definitely not least is www.premierprintfabric.com

 

There are many others, these are just a few of my favorites.

Curtains and Lampshade Escapade

I posted a while back that I was working on curtains with the same fabric as my headboard covering and I am now done with them. Here is the finished product.

Definitely needs some color. :) Can't decide what color though. What do you think?

I then covered a lamp shade today and think I'm going to change it to a more contrasting color and do something with the chains but here is my "work in progress."

Covering my headboard...

Hi everyone! I have been on bedrest for the last couple of weeks and am now off (thank God! I was about to go insane! lol :) ) I have been wanting to completely revamp my bedroom for a while now and just this week actually started on it. Here is one of the first things I did. Covering my headboard was a lot easier than I thought and didn't cost a whole lot since all the home decor fabric was 60% off last week at Joann's. I got this beautiful fabric for only $13.99 a yard!

Before...



I added 2 inch foam to fill in the empty space...




Measured and cut fabric by laying the fabric over the headboard and allowing for some extra to wrap around back for stapling...







Lastly, using a staple gun, I stapled the fabric to the back of the headboard and TaDa!





I am in the process of making new curtains for my windows so I will show my finished product when I'm done with those.
