Fabric Sources & a Lovely Dining Room

 1*2*3*4

Thank you to everyone who left a comment about the mood board yesterday.  A few of you asked about the fabric sources, so here they are.

Also, some of you wanted to know more about mood boards in general.  There are several different sites you can use, but my favorite has always been polyvore.  It is simple to use and really the best way to familiarize yourself is to sign in and just play around.  Caution:  can be habit forming.  It is the best way to get the feel for a room and the direction it is going.  Enjoy!

If you haven't seen the latest Lonny, you can check it out right here.  I have fallen in love with this dining room and it is exactly the direction I was heading.  Oh and about those shades on the chandeliers, never mind.


 Enjoy your day!

  1. I fell in love with this dining room, particularly the driftwood lamp...so pretty and fresh. I admire that the owners worked the decor into the traditional bones of the house, too.

  2. Rene, I had never heard of buyfabrics. Thanks for giving me a new source! P.S. My post today was inspired by the new Lonny! It really is my fave of all the online mags.

  17. Thanks for sharing your fabric sources, I am always looking for new ones. I haven't tried polyvore. I have been using olioboards (have you tried it?) Thank you for commenting on my moodboard, the rug source is Crate and Barrel. I love the dining room you have featured, I was thumbing through the new issue of Lonny earlier and drooling over every page.
