Adding a little color...

 

There is just something about textiles that I love..  vintage, new, colorful, textured you name it.  I pretty much love them all.  I am starting up a few new projects this week and I have been playing with fabric for the past few days.  I could not be happier!  I love how this simple space is transformed with the splashes of color each fabric adds in.  Perfection.

Santa Monica flea market

 

We visited the Santa Monica flea market on Sunday and there was a little something for everyone.  We indulged in textiles and vintage handbags and it was amazing!  It was a very colorful day...

 

 

My Sis picked up the cutest vintage shoes.. Love these!

 

We picked up some color...

 

I always love these but can never think of how I could use one..

 

These were fun and funky they were made with sand..

 

We picked up this little beauty for my sisters renovation!  I am so excited to see it all come together...

Vintage Fabrics: Batik

 

I have a little problem when it comes to this indigo fabric.. well I just cannot resist the beautiful details of each piece and how different they are.  (Please excuse the weird angle of the photo below).   I love these pieces with their intricate patterns and the soft hand of the fabric. The fabric pieces were made in China with a wax resist technique and each is unique, most of these pieces began as clothing and bedding and are now being re-purposed in all different ways.

As you can see I cannot resist the temptation with these pieces! Some of these will go up for sale, most are my personal collection, and I will be using some of the loose fabrics for upholstery projects that I have in the works.

 

While we were in LA for this quick little visit it was a beautiful day and the neighborhood was so pretty, so I snapped a few pictures.  I love how each house is so unique and full of character, this one was so cute!

intricate detail...

 

The detail is so amazing in this space.  I cannot even imagine in person how beautiful it must be!  I hope you are having a wonderful Tuesday!  Today I am so excited to visit a little vintage fabric pop up shop.  I cannot wait to share my finds with you.  I will admit that fabrics are one of my weaknesses, that along with books and purses and shoes, and clothes, and side tables... okay so I have a few weaknesses but fabric is at the top of the list- I suppose it could be worse right!?

Mary McDonald for Schumacher

 

While searching for fabrics a little while back for some clients I came across the new line of Mary McDonald pieces for Schumacher.  I fell instantly for the Chinois Palais collection.  The colors are beautiful and the touch of greige in each piece is perfection.  I put them into several fabric groupings for upcoming projects and I am just keeping my fingers crossed that we get to use them in some way soon!
