Splash of color...Need your opinion


Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles 2010



Can we talk? Lately I�ve seen rooms in magazines that have a simple pop of color, a pop of color that says look at me! Mainly a rustic orange/tomato a color I happen to love and seems to be a simpler, fresher version of red.

It�s used on everything from drapes, lampshades, wall hangings to upholstery.

But as you can see it can still be a bit of a bold color

Being a textile dealer I get rolls of fabrics shipped to me to use in my business. So when I received this roll of rustic orange silk velvet I had no idea what I was going to use it on since antique textiles don�t come in this color. Then it happened, a yard sale beckoned me and a chair was purchased for the sum of $25 but with the most God awful 1940�s flowered fabric so an idea struck me��

Cover the chair in the tomato red silk velvet!  (Please ignore the sage green wall color because that color is going in January and will be replaced with a lovely gray.)The color was a bit bold and really had a POW factor so I tried to tame the color a bit with an antique tapestry pillow. But I don�t know while beautiful the chair is sort of screaming at me. So what do you think keep it or recover it?
