Seaside

I thought I would keep you all up to date on my latest board design and the textile I have chosen to upholster it with.

I've had my eyes on this beautiful material and it was originally what I wanted to use for our own headboard because it looked like something you would find in a Pottery Barn catalog, but I quickly came to the sad conclusion that it wouldn't compliment the bedding we have in our master bedroom.

Since I haven't learned to do fancy things just yet such as, the nail head trim or monogramming techniques, I have fallen in love with textured materials to replace those methods. It adds a lot character and it gives the board some added depth, and of course its more comfortable to rest your head against!

This board would fit a nautical themed bedding or "beachy" bedroom decor with its beautiful coral detail,and the robins egg blue color is just so stunning! The material would  attractively compliment colors such red and yellow.

This headboard will be up for purchase shortly and it if you would be interested in owning it for your home please email me at: jilliannesdesigns@gmail.com
