A design technique that I saw in several of the homes was a repeat use of fabric. The same fabric would be used on the drapes, the furniture….

Even the on the walls!

How gorgeous is that?!

I had never seen pattern on pattern like this before. I actually love the look of the use of the same fabric on the pillows and the furniture! It somehow makes a strong pattern look softer.

Even doing a little window focal point with matching drapes and benches.

Mary McDonald does it! I’m going to play with this idea in my bedroom. I’ll share photos as soon as I’m done!
