[ff] Framed Fabric

As a textile enthusiast I couldn't go past this idea!

Wouldn't it be great to take all the prints one has designed and decorate your own walls with them?
I believe textile prints to be works of art themselves, and art belongs on walls, so why not add the two together to create something really special.

People are always looking for the perfect furniture to match the colour of their walls, or the perfect vase to compliment their cushions. So why not solve one problem, that is; matching your artwork to the decor of your living space, by creating it yourself. 


Here are a few more I found...



I love the eclectic mix in this space! The framed fabric sets the mood and scheme for the space, yet in contrast to its tribal feel, the sofa is (relaxed) french inspired in style and the armchair has a (strong) baroque style pattern. The rug and stool are a modern take on more traditional tribal pieces, and the use of plain cushions helps keep the space looking modern and fresh.

I stumbled across Rochelle's blog this morning "Little Nudge" and she had this to say about setting the tribal decor.

'To keep your space modern, make sure you mix in shades of white and or blocks of colour (light or dark) to break up all the patterns, add a glass coffee table in contrast to all the darker heavy items, and don’t be scared to throw in a colour that is not necessarily ‘tribal’ like the yellow ottoman above or the blue daybed."
