Ode to Kelly Wearstler

I stumbled upon her fabric at Calico Corners searching for just the right fabric for my DIY headboard.  I was given the courage to even try a DIY headboard courtesy of the many blogging DIY-ers who spelled out the process so well.

I will be discussing the process at a later point but here is the finished product:



When I saw the fabric I was in love.  And every day when I go to sleep, wake up, or just stare fondly into my bedroom at the colors I am so happy I picked this pattern.  It has the colors of an oceanic seafoam and teal with a pattern that is fresh with a bohemian texture to it.  I am hoping to get the courage to try some DIY valances with the rest of the fabric I have to match...we will see!

I love this image, I found after I made my headboard, of a full room of Kelly Wearstler's using the same fabric in a different color.  I was pretty proud of my little idea when I saw her own version of it (obviously, much more intricately realized).

Here are some other great Kelly Wearstler creations and items for sale; she sells everything from fabrics to jewelry to decorative objects for the home.  I love it all!  Of course most of it {besides the fabric} I can just salivate at with wistful dreamy eyes :).
