A quick update to my bedroom

I redid my bedroom several months back
Here is a refresher:

Yesterday I found this fabulous fabric at the GW for $15, reams of it.

So I got to work this morning, updating my bedroom.
It’s not a very big space and there is a king sized bed, so floor space is at a premium.
I recovered the canvases, created a slip cover for the ottoman, added pink ribbon to the lamp shades, brought in the dresser that I updated last month and added a green cushion. The only thing that I bought new (to me) is the fabric.

Does anyone know which way is up on this fabric?
The only other thing I would like to add is an area rug. I don’t like a fussy room, preferring to keep things uncluttered, so you won’t see a lot of accessories :)

  10. Up for the fabric, is the way the flowers would grow-pointing up towards the sky. The iris flowers are the tallest so they should be pointing toward the ceiling.

    Beautiful fabric! You got a deal!

It really means a lot to me for others to take the time and give me feedback...or sometimes validating my feelings too. I just hope when gals do that, they are OK...I wish I knew that:)

  21. Your new fabric is perfect with your chocolate wall. Rule of thumb for floral fabrics: the stems go down...I could see some of your stems pointing down, but I couldn't see enough to tell if this is a random fabric. I have a Ralph Lauren fabric that is random, and I'm always trying to figure which way is up with it, too. Thank you for sharing your charming design. Cherry Kay
