COMFY HAVEN

Christmas traditionally always exudes opulence and grandeur. So for those of us who still love the traditional touch, Gold and Bronze are the colors to opt for. We all have a picture in our heads of that family room, glowing with the cosines of a warm fireplace, the Christmas tree adorned with twinkling lights and surrounded with colorful boxes of all shapes and sizes sitting invitingly under it; the table dressed up in its traditional, opulent Christmas splendor, all enveloped in that quintessential pine fragrance. The overriding colors are always essentially warm. This is one season where Gold, Bronze and the Burgundy of wine will never be considered too “over the top”. So bring out those Gold cushion covers and deck thy halls with your bronze baubles, this is definitely the season to be Bold in Gold!

We recently did a custom order for Jeffrey from Michigan USA.

He wanted a cushion cover set for his black leather sofa set. After much deliberation we came up with these set of cushion covers in chocolate brown and shot color turquoise blue. I used a mix of fabrics. The chocolate brown was art silk; it has the same look as dupioni but is slightly less expensive. While the shot color turquoise blue was was 100% pure dupioni silk with brownish red highlights on blue fabric .The brown and blue combination is classic and elegant while the retro circle embroidery made the throw pillow covers look modern and fun.

Two 16 inch turquoise blue shot color cushion cover with retro circles in pure silk.

1 chocolate brown  art silk cushion cover  with  turquoise blue shot color center sash 12X20 inches.

The full set when put together looked something like this.
