Bold Botanical and Floral Fabrics Are Coming
Friday, February 28, 2025
After so many seasons of our palette being grey, beige, and taupe, we have bolder fabric colors and patterns on the way. These new fabrics coordinate beautifully against the more solid colors we've become accustomed to. There are some traditional and geometric fabrics that are updated with more modern colors that look very fresh and inviting. Also, many botanical and floral fabrics are available, which help to brighten up any neutral space. Above is a picture of an antique chair we upholstered in a wild botanical fabric. The customer was hesitant to use this fabric, but when they saw it draped over the chair, they were blown away. If you have a home that needs some updating, don't hesitate to contact us. We provide services in the Montclair, Caldwell, and Livingston areas, as well as all of Northern New Jersey.
The Beauty of Sheer Drapes
Wednesday, February 19, 2025
When one thinks of sheer drapes, you immediately think of white flowing fabric. Well, many designers are expanding one's view of the typical sheer drape. The manufacturers of sheer fabric have expanded their lines to incorporate texture, patterns, and interesting new shades. Sheer drapes allow light to come in and give a soft airiness to any window treatment. In the picture above, the designer asked us to use a charcoal texture sheer in a customer's dining room. The choice of this dark color adds a dramatic quality to the room, which a typical white sheer would never do. The black accents on the furniture and floor bring it all together to make a very powerful modern statement. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you're interested in having sheer drapes made for your next project. We provide services in the Montclair, Caldwell, and Livingston areas, as well as all of Northern New Jersey.

The material now comes in many textures, patterns, and colors that blend beautifully in any home.

The combination of the two creates a sophisticated yet casual space that is very inviting. If you're interested in getting woven shades, please don't hesitate to call us with any questions.
