I know, I know…it’s a weird time to be posting. Since I didn’t get to post this morning (thanks to Blogger having major issues), I thought I’d add one more very quick post tonight.
After sharing the different options I found for floral fabrics, I think the majority of you said I should go with the Alexander Henry fabric with the birds on it. The more I looked at it, the more I agreed. It was definitely more “me” than any of the other fabrics—bright, colorful, whimsical, with birds!
So I used that as my jumping off point to select other fabrics. Here’s what I’ve come up with so far…
Yeah! The walls may be black, but there’s no way that’s going to be a dark and depressing room, and I right?!
Now that I have a vision for the colors and patterns, I just have to decide how I’m going to use all of them. That’s the hard part.
Addicted 2 Decorating is where I share my DIY and decorating journey as I remodel and decorate the 1948 fixer upper that my husband, Matt, and I bought in 2013. Matt has M.S. and is unable to do physical work, so I do the majority of the work on the house by myself. You can learn more about me here.
I hope you’ll join me on my DIY and decorating journey! If you want to follow my projects and progress, you can subscribe below and have each new post delivered to your email inbox. That way you’ll never miss a thing!

May 14, 2011 at 5:08 pmLOVE that main fabric! I'll be so excited to see how you pull of a black room. I love the drama of dark colors, but my house gets very little natural light, so I don't think I can try anything like that. 🙁

May 14, 2011 at 5:10 pmMegan, my little condo gets very little natural light as well, so we'll see how it turns out. 🙂 Hopefully I can pull it off, but I'm also not as adverse to dark rooms as most people seem to be.
