Too Busy to Write?

It's been 2 months since I've added any photos to my blog.  Been really busy!

Blue Panels and Blue Butterflies

These panels make the windows look tall and lean.

Like Audrey, in a very pretty linen dress!

Did you know that you can have almost 
any material made into pillows?

Silk Goblets / Wine Goblets

Silk Goblet Pleated Panels with Covered Buttons

Wine Goblets!

Give Consideration to the Light Fixtures

Interior Designer Noelle Myers of Impressive Interiors chose the perfect fabric to work with the homeowner's existing Hunter Douglas vignette shades and their two tier iron chandelier.

Taking special consideration of the lighting fixtures in the room is a must in well dressed interiors.

 The Drapery Shop has had the pleasure of making and installing window treatments for Impressive Interiors for at least 10 years.

Kravet Fabrics Birds and Swirls

I really like this fabric from Kravet. I particularly like its  Birds.  This  piece with the birds perched on a swaying branch reminds me of  resting and enjoying God's provision.  Just a gentle breeze swaying a thin branch.  The fabric inspired me.

            Check out this remnant piece I have!

The Kravet  fabric below in Teal with Swirls retails for over $150.00 per yard.  I have 2 3/4 yards remaining and will sell the whole piece for $50.00. 

The Kravet item # is 29318.35

Great for cornices, upholstery or roman shades!

No Flowers Please!

She liked the fabric but didn't think her husband would want to sit in the kitchen and see a bunch of flowers. So I suggested we gather the floral into a serpentine valance, staple it on a 1 x 4 board and add fringe.

I think we've created something he can live and dine with.

Let the Sun Shine In

The homeowner loves window coverings 

but does not like to block the light.

She decided to have us make 1/2 cut panels instead of using a full 54" width of fabric.

I'm glad she did.

We constructed the cornices/lambrequines 12" wider than the windows, to just frame the windows.

Yes, push back the drapes Mary and let the sunshine in.
