Colors and Fabrics That Work Best for Your Home

Fabrics can make a lot of difference for your home in more ways than one. It’s important for homeowners to choose the right colors and the suitable materials if they’re looking to add more decorative value to their living spaces. Whether it be upholstery projects, drapery, or simply choosing furniture with unique yet appropriate prints, Fabrics That Go can help you.

Why Fabrics Matter

Fabrics set the mood of your new home’s living spaces, creating a more cohesive atmosphere. It’s essential that you consider the type of fabrics to use and the mood that you want to portray whenever you’re looking into how you can design your home accordingly.

How to use Fabrics Correctly

First of all, you need to have a design style in mind. You have many style choices in contemporary, minimalist, coastal, mid-century modern, traditional, southwestern, upon many other styles. If you’re unsure of how to choose, then you can draw inspiration from exploring Pinterest, different fabric designs online or in-person at Fabrics That Go, to give you an idea of the mood that you want to set.

Remember that you shouldn’t mix too many colors or patterns as this can disrupt the mood with clutter that draws your eye to so many places. If you are looking to add personality through your fabrics, you could simply add accent pieces with colors or patterns that complement your spaces’ color theme.

You could also present style through using textures, where you can create contrast and add more decorative value.

Which Fabrics Should I Use?

There is no one right answer as to which fabric is right for your project. It really depends on a number of factors: style/motif, which room, functionality, and more. People rarely realize the impact fabric has on a home, until they are designing their dream home. It is then that they realize the need to decide fabric in sofas, chairs, decorative pillows, rugs, drapery, outdoor areas, and more!
