Curtains for a Girl and for a Young Man

March 19th, 2012

This little girl had new curtains made from our flocked taffeta.

I love the color and sheen.  This fabric is Inweave’s Plum Flocked Taffeta.

Love her chandelier too.

Her oldest brother got new curtains in shades of grey.  No chandelier though.

Love the sheen of this satin plaid too.  It is available only in our retail store.

I like how they were mounted.  You don’t see the rod at all, very clean looking and easy to do.

These are just rings with a clip attached that you simply clip onto the fabric.  Very inexpensive and they can be found at your local Walmart.

I could see either of these curtains in any dining or living room as well as bedrooms.

I was Pinspired!

February 24th, 2012

Pinterest has inspired me to put up board and batten trim in my entry hall.

I used instructions from a blog called “It’s the little things.”

This “before” shot is taken from the entry door, the door to the left is to the garage, straight ahead is to the basement and the kitchen is on the right.  I wanted to add detail to this area and when I found the board and batten instructions via Pinterest I went for it. I started yesterday afternoon and finished earlier tonight.

I leveled the top 1×4 at 65 inches and nailed it in place.

 

 

I cut the battens to size and nailed them in every 12 inches.

 

Added a small piece above the first board to match the trim in my house.

 

Used butt joints in the corners.

 

Painted three coats of white to match my trim.  Finished!

 

My new rug/runner from Inweave fits perfectly.  Yea!  Done!

Bold Striped Curtains

February 23rd, 2012

I found these curtains on Pinterest.  The tutorial to make them is on The Yellow Cape Cod Blog.  Sarah Macklem is the designer.  She has great skills.  Check out her blog, you won’t be sorry.  She explains bold pattern use here.

Inweave has been stocking lots of new fabrics that have bold patterns and textures.

Find our flocked taffeta here.

 

This is our Apple Green Swirl Jacquard.  We have more colors in this swirl fabric available.

I would love to see a little girl’s room done with curtains made of this fabric.

Find our rosette and ribbon taffeta fabrics here.  There are many more bold fabrics at Inweavefabric.com. Come explore.

Love This Headboard

February 20th, 2012

I found this bedroom on HGTV.com.  It was designed by Troy Beasley.

Troy commented:

This bedroom was designed with a huge 12-foot wide headboard in chocolate
brown mohair.

Design Tip: Cover up the entire wall with headboard for a lot of look.

The headboard would be easy to make.  I would use the same technique I demonstrated here,  but I would wrap the Styrofoam with batting before pinning the fabric into place.  Inweave has many suitable fabrics for this project.

This faux silk is called Endless Knot Rice Paper. $7.99 a yard.

 

 

This  Brown Flocked Taffeta is a new favorite of mine.  I think it would look incredible as a large scale headboard.  $8.99 per yard.

 

 

This Antique Gold Rosette is even better looking in person.  It would look beautiful as a headboard.  I am begging someone to try this fabric and send pictures. This is on sale for an incredible $7.99 right now.

If you do send me a picture of our fabric in a project you have completed I will send you a 40% off coupon.
