Choosing Blue?

We couldn't find the right blue and cream striped fabric. 

So to create the stripe we ordered two different fabrics
and sewed them together.
I love this entire room.

It's blue faux painted walls.



The chandelier with the crystal leaves.

The inverted pleat drapery panels.
The blue paint under the chair rail.

 And the sheers
that simply keep the room looking clean and crisp.  
     

P.S.  You must know 
 not all faux artist are this good.

Send Me Your Remenants

 I love when my clients tell me to take the scraps and make a few pillows. 

 Some pillows like the round bolster  and the gold boxed pillow need to be tailored.

When making pillows to be used on leather furniture consider using  suede on the back.  This will keep the pillows from slipping.
With others Mix and Match the Fabrics and Trim and just have Fun!
I truly regret that I haven't taken pictures of all of the neat pillows I've created over the years.
