Beautiful Thing: Fabric by the Yard
You’ve probably picked up on the fact by now that I’m big on accessories, especially easily changeable accessories like throw pillows. But let’s face it, sometimes I spend way too much time searching for the perfect pillow, be it due to the size or the pattern I’m looking for. And I rarely replace entire pillows– I usually just change out the covers, which can make the process all the more difficult because I’m limited to a particular size. If you like to sew, check out the fabric by the yard selections on some of the more popular home decor websites. Both Potterybarn and Ballard Designs offer fabric by the yard. I am especially impressed with Ballard Designs current selection of fabrics. They have some beautiful floral prints right now, which can enable you to easily coordinate your pillows and window treatments with high quality fabrics. And you gotta love that!
