fine Custom design
FABRIC SELECTION
Custom designed products allow the designer to choose specific fabrics, trimmings and other design elements which, when fabricated, create a one of a kind item for the client’s home.
Selection of the fabrics is the place to begin…the first creative category where choices are made. Fabrics can be chosen from many design categories such as color, season, print design, architectural style and etc.
The design style, color direction and accompanying fabrics lead the direction of the final pillow design.
trimmings WITH textures
Trimmings with texture are dimensional forms of designs applied to the pillow...gemstones, metal, glass, painted, textured or plain there is no limit to creative ideas for textural designs. When these trimmings are used, an additional dimension of interest is added to the finished product.
Beads and buttons are two categories offering many design/style options for the creator. Beads are found in various sizes, materials, and styles. Buttons create a different texture and dimension for a true designer look. Any combination of hand applied beads will give a designer look. Plain, patterned, or painted…there is no limit to the use of creativity for textural design ideas.

Too Much Green…What can I do????
A blog reader e-mailed me (see “Ask Paula” on the Contact Page) this photo from Elle Décor Magazine where the reader wanted to use some of these ideas for her vacation home.

This is such a great room with many wonderful design elements…just a little tweaking is needed. Let’s begin with the “envelope” of the room which includes walls, ceiling, and flooring. Beginning with the walls there is the upper green wall in two sections and the ceiling which we are not able to see.
