for those searching...





for greener grass...here's some inspiration.

it's friday....




which means adios boss and hello weekend...however you plan to spend it, i hope it's a blast..see you next week!

featured fabric (quick switch don't hate)....




okay, i know i totally teased you with the quadrille fabrics yesterday but after talking with the showroom, i had to make an executive decision...they have raised their fabric order to a 5 yard minimum...which is a lot to ask for a featured fabric over $100. however, if any of y'all are interested in one of the fabrics, i will gladly check their stock and if they happen to have it in stock, they will allow orders under 5 yards (and as always w/ a featured fabric, a discounted price will be given).

OKAY, so with all of the chaos over with, now onto it's replacement (i hope y'all are just as excited).....Chaing Mai Dragon by Schumacher. it's a classic and it's been blogged about over and over again...and now, it can be yours....

Suggested retail price $206; featured fabric price $120: available in 4 colorways

for inquiries please email me at: shannon@shannondarbydesign.com. orders are placed through pay pal and the fabric will be shipped ups ground directly to your home (once your pay pal transaction has cleared). this sale will last until 10-04-09.

in preparation of what's to come....







just a little eye candy of what you can expect from pink wallpaper tomorrow....
feature fabric hasn't been around in awhile...so why not feature one of my all time favorite companies....can you guess what it is?!
*don't feel shy about suggesting which one you want me to feature :) see you tomorrow....

color restraint.....





layering neutrals are a perfect way to create a charming space for anyone struggling w/ color...but one of the keys is to be sure to mix light and dark elements to build that wonderful definition.

a simple grosgrain ribbon....






can quickly turn into a beautiful source of inspiration....
some people think they are locked to a paint deck when trying to decide on a color palette for their interior, i think inspiration could be sitting right in front of you....
