I'm trying to make decisions about how to design my dining room. I know what color I want to paint the wall, how I want to stain the table and chairs, the approximate shade I want to paint my concrete floor, and a basic idea of the fabric that I want to upholster the seats in.

(current state of dining room)

I know i want some shade of red/rust color, but I don't want it to be solid. I also know that I'd like some lightness in the fabric because the room, overall, is dark. I'm loving ikat prints lately and I think this could be a great place to incorporate one into my home. And I can totally find this exact fabric I'm describing everywhere if I'm willing to pay $20/yard for it... however, I am not.

I found this fabric for $8 and some change on Amazon and I'm strongly considering. However I'm not in love (but I think I could learn to love it), and I've had some negative feedback from a couple people. SO I need more people to tell me what to do.

Today I came home and spent way too much time on Photoshop making a really poor rendering of my ideas together instead of dusting my house. How do you feel about the fabric on my seat cushions (and/or everything else in the room)?

Update Time!

It was just time for a little update. I hope you enjoy the new look and layout of the blog :-)

Otherwise there isn't a whole lot else new with me. Just working on getting school finished up (I'm not actually that close..) and trying to make my home even more beautiful!
