Guest Picks: Get the Look of an Indoor Garden — With Fabric
http://www.decor-ideas.org 08/17/2013 17:10 Decor Ideas
True story, I am the worst indoor gardener. I just killed two succulents that somehow survived a dark corner in Ikea, but could not survive my house. So my game plan this summer is to bring the outdoors in through my textiles, which hopefully will never die. I have spent a lot of time over the past couple of weeks scouting fabric for my clients, and a bit for myself. Here are my findings. — Stephanie from SabbeSpot
Fern Fabric, Sage » This fern print would be great to add a little bit of geometry, but it still keeps things flowing and feeling natural.
John Robshaw Collection Kedara Fabric, Lemongrass » Nothing screams nature more than John Robshaw textiles. I love this print.
Danda Fabric, Lemongrass » Another great thing about Robshaw's collection for Duralee is the price point — very affordable compared with most lines out there with a similar look.
Edessa Key, Ivy » This trim would be perfect to spruce up a pair of store-bought curtain panels.
Fig Leaf Fabric » Oh Peter Dunham, you nailed it with this one. This botanical print is super popular right now.
Logan Solid Velvet, Hunter » I am having two 20-inch pillows made for my navy sofa out of this super-dark green velvet by Duralee.
Sea Glass Elements Exclusive Print Fabric, Mint » I am a grandma at heart, and this print reminds me of something I would find in my grandma's kitchen. It would look great on a seat cushion in a breakfast nook.
Peterazzi Fabric, Green » I am always on the hunt for good small-scale geometrics.
Kashmir Paisley Fabric, Tea/Green » It may not be clear in this image, but this is a very small-scale print. It's 54 inches wide with banding on both ends. It would be adorable for pleated cafe curtains.
Udaipur Fabric, Indigo on White Linen » This is another very dainty pattern by Peter Dunham. I plan to pair it with the velvet pictured next for a project I am currently working on.
Logan Solid Velvet Fabric, Sea Glass » I like to mix textures. I've been having a lot of pillows made with prints on the front, luscious velvet on the back and a thick velvet cord at the seams.
Indian Flower Fabric, Saffron » This is a great small-scale floral pattern.
Julia Double Fabric, Blue on Natural » Mally Skok is a Boston local who is super nice and super talented. I love this dainty little print of hers.
Mewar Fabric, Aqua/Lime on Oyster » Here's another print from Mally Skok. Some of her work almost looks like botanical field studies.
Grace Fabric, Willow » I recently discovered Jasper fabrics. To say I am in love would be an understatement. Isn't this fabric stunning?
Malmasion Fabric, Fontaine » This is another gorgeous Jasper pattern.
Lotus Fabric, Sprout on White Linen » Galbraith & Paul's lotus print is just gorgeous. All of their fabrics are hand-blocked in Philadelphia — I love that. I would love a studio tour.
Seville Tile Fabric, Kiwi/Turquoise on White Linen » Here's another gorgeous print from Galbraith & Paul.
Mohawk MLF2203-03 Fabric » I like to try to mix in a little structure when gathering fabrics. This mountains print is another great small-scale pattern.
Kalika Paisley Print Fabric, Citron » I love this pattern by Schumacher. The citron color is the best. It also comes at a slightly better price point than some of the others with a similar look.
