I have it bad…I don’t mind admitting it.
I am in full “garden dreaming” mode.
It is that glorious time of year when everything is waking up and my thoughts are all about flowers and colour…
Fabrics that inspire thoughts of the outdoors and bring our love of gardens inside are my focus today.

Lets see a room using this wonderful palette.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to relax here… I need a minute, sigh.
This charming linen print is Ivana 1615 from Kravet…. it echoes the colours and feeling found in the romantic conservatory garden we just saw perfectly.
Now we are getting more vibrant… This stunning image is from Trentham Gardens in the UK, All those glorious blooms…
Makasar fabric from Baker Lifestyles Homes & Gardens II gives me that lush and lively feeling.
My own annuals from last year brought a riot of colour to our backyard… To see more of our backyard from last year…
The orangey reds and blues in the new Monterey collection from Thibaut give me that same feeling… How could you not be happy in this room?
A photo shoot for Ruralist last summer had me in the boho mood…
Brunschwig & Fils fabrics would be perfect to recreate this feeling indoors…
The final inspiration photo today is truly a beauty… the garden tour of La Jolia‘ from Vignettes showcases the art of bringing the indoors out instead of the outdoors in… how utterly charming!
Thibaut Barrowgate fabric and wallpaper is my pick to recreate the palette indoors.
It has been fun playing and dreaming of gardens and fabrics today.
