My Loot and Redesign...

So here are the awesome fabrics I found yesterday. All were a whopping $4.99/yd...but originally marked at the least $24.99/yd. I have had a change of heart for where I am using what but here's what we're working with. The backdrop is the color of my office...Toasted Nutmeg by Behr.

Plan:

A-Chenille-will be used to make two Euro Shams likely for my Master bedroom. I ordered a solid coordinating duvet cover and will continue to look for a few coordinating fabrics for accents. The color looks great with my deep olive walls & walnut furniture.

B-Microfiber-will likely be used for my do-it-yourself headboard I plan to make for my future guestroom. I plan to cover batting padded plywood, and mount it to a dark stained wood slab and affix it to a wall...more on that project when we know where we're moving...

C-Linen-this currently lines a pinboard I have hanging above my craft table (will add that project here later) and I am not sure what I will do with it yet. Was originally meant for headboard covering, but microfiber is more durable. Goes best with the printed fabric...so we'll see...

D-chenille-possibly for some pillows? Not sure what I will do with this yet but it was so cheap. Looks great. Might be some neutral pillows for living room if I can ever find a cool print for the main pillows...

Here's just another look. The colors can so easily be manipulated to look totally different tones than they really are. The fabric does really match my office well.

I ordered a duvet for my master bedroom in the color second from the left, below. The potential (if the color is right) is for the Euro's to be in the print above. All linens ivory and bring in just one other simpler fabric for a couple accent pillows...I'm getting ahead of myself. Let's see if the duvet works first. You can find these at The Company Store, my favorite place for linens&basic bedding like down comforters & pillows. My grandma got me hooked on them as they are based near her in Wisconsin and they used to run a cheap-as-dirt outlet in her small town. They had unbelievable deals! Now, they have a secret online outlet you can find here.
