So, now that my kitchen is almost livable (we are going to try to put the faucet in tonight!), I’ve started to think, what next? My house doesn’t seem homey yet, so I need to make it feel comfortable…by getting things on the walls, and buying a few decor items, etc. But before I do that I know I need a color scheme. The best way I have found to do this is to choose some fabrics and then use the colors in them to coordinate the things I buy. I have my main color on the walls, so I need to pick some fabrics that go with them.

After doing a little browsing on the trusty ol’ web I’ve found the perfect fabric collection for me! It is called August Fields and is by Amy Butler . I am now in love with her. It is a little bit retro but so nice.

There are four different color pallets with this collection, but I love the first two. I think I’ll order some fabrics from one of these two. So I have a beautiful blue/green color on the walls and I’ll be picking accents in green, red or orange. I’m excited!
