Change of Plans

Remember those horizontal stripe curtains I had planned for my home office makeover?



Yeah, scratch that.  I've decided to go brighter.  I found this fabric (Covington "Wilmington") and I think it will be a good contrast to my dark gray walls and a nice fit with the green campaign dresser:




And, for the two or three of you out there holding your breath for my office reveal, I promise it's coming.  Hopefully, it will be as exciting as you are expecting it to be :)

  30. I love the new fabric. I think it will bring the room to life more, and also it offers more possibilities for the wall colour should you want a change from grey at any stage.

    I have chosen a similar fabric as inspiration for my bedroom. I find having the fabric first makes choosing the rest sooo much easier.
