Neat Fabric Idea

I really enjoy the blog How About Orange (which I have mentioned here before), and I saw an idea there for wallpapering with fabric. This is such a cool concept and I am thinking I might try to apply it to my bulletin board sometime. Here's a picture of a the fabric-covered door in the How About Orange post. Read how to use this technique here!


Jessica from How About Orange mentioned that she got the fabric for this project from Ikea, so I checked out some of their neat fabrics online. The handwriting print Jessica linked to is great, and I found two others I like, too. Here are pictures and sources.

Britten Nummer Fabric

Ikea Stockholm Blad Fabric

Kajsastina Fabric

I like that all these designs have just two colors each - that makes them very simple, striking, and so Ikea-like. What do you all think of this idea and these Ikea fabrics?

I love all of them! The yellow one is probably one of my favorites :) It's cool that the ones you like are the colors you mentioned wanting for your room... do you think you will use any of them if you do decide to redesign yur bedroom?

Good question, Sarah! I might consider using some of these, but it would depend on what other patterns I have going on in the room. :)

That yellow one is SO COOL! It looks like fireworks or one of those lights with the clear strands and points of light on the ends.
