Flea Market Finds

Its been a long two weeks and I've had a hard time thinking about what to write for a post....

So I thought Id share with you a few things I've been doing..

My daughter and I went to the Flea market and saw these beautiful hand dyed vintage fabrics from Africa. 

We were told they were used as shawls.

I bought some and would love to do this with them...

love it with the white!

They would look great in a room with red and white...

They also had these black and white hand dyed fabrics.

 I loved all the different patterns!

 I wish I had bought a couple of these too, they were beautiful.

 They would look great as pillows in my guest room...

I just might have to go back and get them!

I had to stage and up-date my parents home so we could sell it. 

We had to replace the carpet, paint, new cabinets, all new appliances and new counter tops. 

It was a lot of work!

She had the red sofa which I had to keep so I added the bold blue to 
  help balance the red.

We sold it in two weeks...we have a 30 day escrow and now need to pack up the house!

 YIKES!

 I'm not looking forward to that!

Thanks for visiting,
Julie

Yellows Fabrics

( Artivos)

Sometimes a creative mind works in mysterious ways....especially mine....
I have these beautiful yellow and white fabrics that I adore and I found this gorgeous rug that was pink with a tad of yellow....that's all it took for me to envision a room that could look like this...

Pink, white and yellow.... 
So pretty ....

This is one of the fabrics I adore from Duralee and in person the color is brighter and prettier...I took a picture of the sample below....

This is from Robert Allen...I love this!
 It comes in a variety of colors and I had pillows made for my sofa out of it in blue and white.....It would make beautiful curtains...wouldn't it?

This is the same fabric from Duralee that I showed above...its a lot prettier in person...don't you think?

Isn't this a beautiful door...its from Taos Mexico and I found it here.

It needs a pink pillow...don't you think?

Windsor Smith....
So pretty...
This room has been in magazines, all over Pinterest and blogs and I can see why...

This gorgeous baby is from Surya Rugs...

I took my vintage yellow lamp and put it with these wonderful fabrics...
It needs a different shade...

Which led to this...
Pulling out some of my vintage fabrics...

This vintage fabric would be a great mix ..

OK..
So on the topic of vintage...
I found this great pot a couple of weeks ago...see how my mind works..it led to this whole new subject on vintage finds....

And I found this mirror...is it just me or is this so cool.....
Wouldn't this look great with all those yellow fabrics...

This is another one of my vintage finds....
Wouldn't it make great pillows?

Windsor Smith brought these colors all together perfectly....
