                   Trims Add That Little Something Extra                      















Trims, ribbons and tassels - oh my! Second only to fabric, trims are my
favorite things to look through, touch, imagine how they can be used.

A glance through these pictures will show you some of the ways trims can
be used - furniture, drapery, pillows, bedding - you are only limited by your
imagination.



















As a DIYer, with all the new fabric adhesives on the market now, you don't
even need to have a knowledge of sewing. Using the appropriate fabric glue
can get you beautiful results in minutes.

                            Wallpaper or Art ~ It Can Be Both
                             













There are some beautiful wallpapers out there and while I love them, I just can't bring
myself to wallpaper an entire room. However, I can still enjoy the lovely patterns that
are out there by using the wallpaper in other ways.

Framing pieces of wallpaper and using them in lieu of actual pictures. Not only am I
getting some of that beauty I'm admiring, but an inexpensive way to add some art to
my walls! You can do individual pieces or hang three together in a tryptich.












Cover an old room screen, (or make your own with narrow solid doors) with
wallpaper. This makes for a nice focal point in a room that doesn't have one or adds
that "certain something" to an empty corner. Some striking screens are done with the
papers such as the one pictured above from Thibaut.
