Calico Corners

House Beautiful is probably my favorite shelter mag. This month's cover featured a dining room decorated by Anne Selke (who is the design genius behind Pine Cone Hill bedding and Dash & Albert rugs).


The chairs are covered in a fabric designed by the decorator herself. The fabric is sold by Calico Corners.
Scramble in Slate, $28.99/yd

Have you checked out Calico Corners lately? I am so impressed with their selection!

Here are a few of my favorites.

Lock in Hot Pink $14.99/yd
(Hello, adorable girl's room!!) Maybe for some chairs?


Maybe with a little of this for draperies? Key West $14.99/yd


And a little of this on the headboard, for some depth? Carlisle in Rose


And don't forget a stripe - there should always be a stripe! Majorca Stripe ($20.99/yd) for pillows or a bench.

Speaking of stripes, remember this room with the railroaded-fabric drapes?


This Rumor fabric ($14.99/yd) would be a great substitute to achieve the same look.



For the reader interested in black and white prints, here's another great one - Silhouette in Ebony, $24.99/yd


It would look great as a headboard or for lining your cabinets, like in this Domino photo.


Tomorrow morning's post will be all about using Calico Corner's fabrics to transform vintage furniture. See you then!
