Coordinating Fabrics
Coordinating Fabrics
Im still here! Sorry for the lack of posts recently, Im blogging as we go with our living room updates. We have actually made some progress in the room, but theres not much to show yet ;)
Right now, Im working on trying to identify which fabrics Ill use as accents in the room. If you remember, the main fabric, for the curtains is P. Kauffman Leaf Cloud:
I received the fabric for the curtains and my mom is currently helping me make them into curtain panels. Hopefully well have them up in a couple weeks :) However, I was interested in how the fabric would look on the entire roll, so I held it up for a quick picture before we started the curtains.

One thing, isnt it crazy how the wall color changes with different things in the picture. Here, it sort of looks like a light green, but it really doesnt in most other light. This was a night and taken with my phone so its a little off. However, I think that is one of the great things about neutral paint colors, I love how they go with everything and are really pleasing to the eye when done right.
Id like to incorporate some bold fabrics in the room for pillows and other accents. Finally selecting fabrics is actually turning out to be quite difficult. I want to the accents to be bright and fun in a mixture of patterns. I think bright green will be nice with the original fabric. Here are some of the fabrics that Im found which might look nice with the P. Kauffman fabric. Its hard to tell the actual colors and scale from these examples, but Im looking for a mix of fun geometric prints, textures and colors that will coordinate with the curtain fabric.
Im still on the hunt for the perfect fabrics, so it might not even end up using any of these... well see!
What do you think? Which are your favorite combinations?
