before and after

i found this lovely post from a fellow spoonflower-ian turquoiseshed. they have used my fabric in part of their bedroom makeover posted to their blog. its very exciting for me to be a part of this new movement for "original fabric" not mass produced, as well exciting that i have people supporting and buying my designs. a beautiful makeover...glad to have a share. you can find the original post here.

As we mentioned before, this is what we decided to go for.

And here's what we ended up with!

We started by deciding which of the client's existing pieces we would keep and then spruced them up. We sourced a used headboard that we made-over with a custom paint job and had upholstery panels built and added on, topped off with our custom fabric.

We sourced some new pieces like lamps, a mirror, bedding and art for the design details and finishing pieces. Sometimes you can't find what you imagined, used or new, and so with some DIY know-how we built a shelf to display some art purchased on Etsy.

The inspiration for the room's palette came from our custom fabric that we used for curtains. Voila! Good-bye 90's sun border and hello new, fresh bedroom for a young couple who just moved into their first home! Or, how about this; hello new, fresh bedroom for a fresh couple who just moved into their new home? OR, ...for a young couple to get fresh in their new home? Ahem.
