DESIGNING A BEAUTIFUL SPOT FOR TEA --
Coordinated Colors, Fabrics and Patterns
Create a Harmonious Look


When it comes to decorating, the most important source of inspiration is you! The way you live, the things you love and the kinds of colors, textures and moods that naturally appeal to you are the most vital ingredients in any decorating scheme.

Your home provides a haven - a safe, comfortable nest for your children, a quiet place to refresh your spirit, a lively social center for family and friends. Today, more people are staying at home - entertaining there and enjoying a more relaxed atmosphere with family and friends. We want to be in environments that are nurturing and welcoming, a respite from cold winter days. What better way of connecting with loved ones than gathering for a cup of tea -- around a fireplace, at an elegant dining room table or in cheerful kitchen area -- to reflect on the day's events or to just catch up during busy times.

Beautiful rooms for any kind of entertaining require warmth and comfort - and selecting coordinated fabrics for window treatments, upholstery and accent pieces is the natural starting point for exploring your decorating preferences.


According to Lois Croce, manager of the Custom Decorating department at Fabricland of North Plainfield, classic elegant styling has re- emerged as the most popular design direction today. " With great companies like Waverly Home Fashions, we are able to help our customers create beautiful coordinated looks in every room of their home by using the fabrics, wallcoverings and accessories to unify a design scheme throughout the house. Very often, we encourage the homeowner to use different prints within the same pattern and color palette to add more interest to a total design plan."


For those people who prefer to work with a decorator in their home, Fabricland also provides a free Shop-At-Home service where a talented staff member comes to your home and brings samples for every element of your plan - fabrics, window treatments, furnishings and more. By working "on site", the decorators help make appropriate selections depending upon the room's function, scale, lighting, space plan , furniture placement and more.


Fabricland also carries an extensive assortment of Waverly fabrics by the yard - displayed in coordinated groupings to make decorating easier, as well as ready-made window treatments, bedding and accessories. Because the store buys their fabrics direct from the mills, they eliminate the middleman and pass on savings of 50% off book prices to their customers.


As the need to stay home and entertain becomes stronger, more people will focus on making their space the perfect embodiment of individual style. Furniture and paint are certainly important elements, but choosing beautiful fabrics in coordinated colors, patterns and textures combined with wallpapers, tabletop pieces and cherished collections is what decorating is all about - making your personal statement by revealing who you are and what you want your home to be.
